The heel of your gear foot should remain on the peg as you up-shift, as you rotate the foot around the perch of the lever from bottom to top (and vice-verse) and as you downshift.
That can be achieved by adjusting the linkage of the gear's lever or by relocating the clamp on the selector shaft.
When not shifting, the support of the foot changes from heel to ball.
Something similar applies to the brake foot, proving enough room to prevent the weight of the foot from inadvertently putting pressure on the lever and dragging and overheating the rear brake.

thanks motofool! Love that article and will have to play the video on my phone at some point today
Yes, I do have the proper ball and heal position when shifting. It sounds like I need to adjust my brake lever down slightly and I also probably need adjustment of my shifting
When I go from the ball of my foot the the heal(while staying on the peg) it seems just enough to move my legs up and over that hard ridge thus reducing how easy it is to grip with my legs. Hoping stompgrip and lever adjustments will hlep!
Thanks ghostt for suggestion, much needed
