It is very important to refrain from using the concept of pushing off the rubber. It isn't just terminology. The MLB pitching coach that I videoed took 20 minutes to labor the point
Linsecum has a giant stride and that makes him appear to push off. In order to accelerate the arm and upper body the lower body has to stabilize. It has to become the fulcrum that allows the arm to get max torque. Try jumping and throwing at the same time. Very hard to do.
