Hi, been training for 6 years and have had a couple of amateur fights before. I am orthodox and my technique looks good but it doesnt feel good when excecuting it. I very often feel unbalanced and that something isnt right when throwing strikes/defence/ footwork. I very often get frustrated , been training alot since my journey started and ive been to thailand many times. The frustration is that i so often feel very unbalanced, and no matter how much i practice it it just doesnt seem to get better. I have pes cavus on my left foot i dont know if that has anything to do with. As soon as i go southpaw i feel so much more grounded and my balance is better, i have more power in every strike from the left side when i go southpaw compared to the right side when i am in orthodox. I always tought just stick with orthodox and keep going even though it still feels unnatural after 6 years of training, but it dont seem to get better.
All of the frustration, i am very often thinking of going all in on southpaw just because my balance is so much better with my right leg standing in front. I know people say the offense may feel better in southpaw, and i have to work alot on defence . Just feels way better in southpaw ( offence) and when i shadow in southpaw defence also feels easier, blocking, moving. Any tips , thoughts? anyone who has felt the same? Dont know what to do. thanks :)
