The head must be steady AND THE BACK ELBOW WILL RECONNECT WITH THE HIP DROP AS THE ARMS ARE PULLED STRAIGHT TO COLLECT THE CHIN WITH THE TURNING BACK SHOULDER!

45 degrees and same increased distances as yesterday! Ball position for me seems to be a couple inches back from normal given my unusual leg length. THE FEELING I NOW HAVE IS OF RELAXING, SINKING INTO THE RIGHT HEEL LIFT AND WAITING FOR THE PULL OF PP # 3 TO PULL THE ROPE/CLUB TAUGHT THROUGH THE BALL AND MAKING ME LIFT MY HEAD TO SEE THE BALL VERY HIGH, PENETRATING AND STRAIGHT.

Thanks guys!

Lower Body Work

Thanks, kr. I enjoyed writing it for you!

Regarding the Lower Body's participation in this fundamental Motion...

First, remember that the correct Pivot demands a Fixed Point on Both ends. So, the Head will remain Stationary and, to a large degree, so will the Feet. Both Feet will remain Flat on the Ground, and even Rolling should be only enough to maintain your Balance.

On the Backstroke, your Weight will Shift, the Right Hip will Clear (straight back), and your Left Knee will accomodate that Motion by rotating slightly inward and forward. On the Downstroke, the Weight will once again Shift as the Hips Slide and Turn slightly. These motions should not be exaggerated, and thus the Body will remain 'comparatively Squared Away.

Both Knees will remain Bent throughout (Right Anchor per 10-16-C) and will rotate slightly as you enter the 'Sit Down' position. The angle of the Right Leg (to the ground) will remain constant on the Backstroke and shift slightly forward on the Downstroke to accomodate the Hip Slide.

In short, your Feet and Knees -- collectively the Legs -- support the Motion. The Right Hip Clears a path for the Hands to be taken Up Plane by the Bending Right Elbow and Foream.
