There is no doubt that Homer studied the movement of the body when writing the book.
I didn't say it was a clap of the hands. I said the motion is that of a simple clapping motion. Clap your hands and watch your forearms- there it is. That forearm movement is what you need. what muscle moved that forearm? Who cares. Did you preform the movement correctly, bet you can. Homer moved his Hands, traced plane lines, built machines. I have never read or heard a single word about applied Kinesiology from Homer. Read 1-L. If Homer spent any amount of time studying Kinesiology and it didn't get a lick of mention anywhere, then it was not compelling enough to help anyone.

My pp3 tracing is not too shaby nor is my Straight forearm thrust of my right forearm flying wedge. A classic tgm action that requires no Kinesiology knowledge. Just obiterate the plane line to the low point plane line and hear the sweet intoxicating sound of impact. Perfection? What is? Who is? Regardless, Lynn and Homer built me a nice machine, and I don't know my antibrachial fascia from my humerus in doing so.


A golf swing is a Hinge Action of an Angular Motion on an Incline Plane.
