How can I use my left foot more?

Question

I am a righty and I use my right hand and foot most of the time.....when I play or practice with a football/soccer ball I find I am kicking all the time with my right foot and when juggling the ball most of the time I use my right foot. I try to switch it up and use my left foot but when I kick the ball I can't aim with my left foot.....the ball always goes the wrong way.....and when I try to juggle with my left foot I feel like I am going to lose my balance and fall down?

Answer 1

Find a wall and play "kick-back" by yourself alternating the left foot & the right foot....Practice, practice, practice...

Answer 2

hey man, using your left is hard at first, it took me about a year and a half to master the skill, and im still workin on it. :) i recommend first that you look at how you kick it with your right foot. what part of your foot do you hit the ball with? try to mimic the position with your left. it'll take time, but, believe me, once you get it down, it has HUGE advantages, especially in a game. the thing with the juggling just takes time too. practice as much as possible.

Answer 3

Just try balancing the ball in this foot I used to have the same problem but now I know how to use it!

Answer 4

It may be really difficult now, but continue practicing in your free time with your left foot. You can do individual activities to strengthen it but you have to develop it in the special skills you want to use it for- it may get really tedious but just keep practicing.

Answer 5

Practice with your left foot on you wife's fannie. LOL,don't you dare. You might find she has a left hook.

Answer 6

Practice Practice Practice... easier said than done. =(

Comparing it to boxing... At least get a solid jab with your leff (weak side)

Answer 7

Injure your right foot.

Answer 8

Are you stupid>>>
just use it and you'll know how to use it...
