Foreman hitting the heavybag, how he did it.

[red fox]

Scrap the technical trainer says to focus pressure on the heel if pressure is focused on the soles of the back foot rooting is lost. Do you mind explaining what he meant? When the weight is over the right side of the body he tells me the right heel should be flat.

If the heel is slightly raised, no weight on it as such, your TFL is primed. Plus the reflex is primed, you have a 10th of a second to create force, athletic movement. where you need to be distance depth or direction. Whats changed things a lot was in the 80s, things changed. Leather soles went out, rubbers came in, hence foot mechanics altered.

Foreman's right heel was planted before throwing the left hook!

Because the bag wasnt moving, also the technique was terrible.

As the reporter said there was a dent the size of a watermelon in the bag. What was wrong with the technique?

If you cant see it, theres no hope.

According to you! Had big George elevated the right heel we wouldn't be having this discussion. Big George had a big left hook because his right heel was fastened to the floor allowing a stretch to occur. There isn't one national trainer who agrees with you. All say that balance is poor standing on the balls of the feet and where there's no balance there's no power.

So what are we trying to balance.

Like the coach said we know we're right on track as long as we're on a different page as you. One of the trainers went to the 88 Olympics as a shot put athlete and when I told him your crazy ideas about power coming from the heels being elevated his response was either he's poking or smoking! Sink the heels into the ground and when you land make sure you're on the heel of the left foot. In no power sport does it finish on the balls of the feet nor does it start there. This is why you are not representing team GB in the 2016 Olympics because of your outlandish beliefs about aligning vertabraes and veins, propioception and passing through chakras and all that ying and yang rubbish.
