1. your power leg is the one you want to plant from i.e right leg


2. you derive your power from your legs and your back arm which is your right arm

I'm left handed but right footed, and I bat lefty/throw lefty.

That being said, in soccer I would often get thrown in at left wing because my left is about as strong as my right and I could cross with it.

And, I rake in Chicago style softball/homerun derby/you name it.

Not sure. Most right handers kick right footed. Think soccer. In that case your plant leg would be your left leg.

Left handed batters also have a left footed plant leg. Right foot steps forward on the swing.
