i was reading somewhere that you should keep 55% of weight on backfoot. i thought you keep it on your front foot. what is true? i know you should bend your back leg more than your front but idk where more weight should go.
Bend your back leg more? Um dude, who's been teaching you this? If it's a "trainer", they might need some training themself.
your trainer is wrong i think you need to put 62.42% of your weight on the back foot and the rest on the front.
no my coach didnt teach me 2 do this. i just got a bunch of boxing books and manauls to supplement my learning and heres what it says Lead foot- approximately 12-18 inches in front of the back foot and slightly turned-in (about 35 degrees). Feet- approximately a shoulders width apart. With a slight open stance (rear foot kicked out six to eight inches to the outside of the stance). This gives our stance balance and stability in all directions (i.e. against straight-arm and bentarm punches). Front knee-flexed but not bent. Back knee-bent Heel-raised slightly off ground so that you can slip a piece of paper under your heels. Balance on the balls of both feet. Weight--There should be slightly more weight on the rear footabout 55-45 split. also i keep my hels of the ground a little more than that
