When hitting, should the hips be square at impact or open? If open, is hip thrust conscious, or is it in reaction to what's going on with the upper body? I ask this because my image of hitting is one of being very upper-body dominant with the lower body relatively still.
Also, in a related matter, since I've been working on a hitting motion, my left hip has gotten increasingly sore. I think this is because I'm "hitting into my left side" instead of clearing it, as I did when I was doing more of a swinging motion. Is there anything I might be doing wrong here?
