    I'd imagine that throwing a left hook while really anchoring the back foot would allow you to throw a tighter hook with a ton of whip!

    Only thing though, i'd it's imagine it's shorter in range (in comparison to a more front footed hook)? Is that right

    Edit - Also, I kinda get the feeling that this hook feels nicer after a jab?

    I find if you yell or scream while you throw it you can increase the power of the punch by 10-20%

    Understand what actually moves us, and gives us the ability to create power and direction. Its the floor, we dont drive of the floor, we drive in to it. Its all done by Feet and Knees, thats your mechanics of movement. They give you direction and Drive and Depth, and balance.

    Isn't the back? We were taught that you can punch hard if you put your back in to the punch.

    If you do that you lose balance what moves the back in balance are the feet and knees. Hips only move 6% to protect the coxxys its the knees that do most of the work. Stand with your ankles and knees locked straight try and move your hips. Understand the mechanics of walking, 1st thing we do standing as a baby.
