Left Hook

[BCBUD]

Heel is lifted 2 reasons, 1 because the knees bent, they work together. 2nd it gives rotation to the hip, and Tenses facies lata, the thing that orchestrates the posterior chain.

Conventional wisdom taught us that the front leg provided for striking with maximum leverage therefore at our gym stepping into the punch is protocol. Is this also true with your style?

Look at great fighters, they dont lean in, its all about distance and balance, as regards gravity. Example, throwing a jab if you lean one thing happens your head goes with it. Now if the head is out of position and the backl knee isnt bent, his counter is going to hurt, more than if you were where you should be in balance. Plus you are not in a position to counter the counter, simple really.

So pull the rear leg back bend the knees and then fire up using the toe?
