Why This Drill Works (Kinetic Mechanics)

Extension is a byproduct of rotation. If the body stops, the arms fold. Keep the body turning.

How to Perform the Drill

The coach gives no set rep count. Our general guideline: 3 sets of 10 slow rehearsal reps, then half swings with a ball, adding speed only once the steps feel natural.

  1. Swing to the finish position.

  2. Check that both arms are fully straight/extended at chest height.

  3. If the lead elbow is bent, you stopped rotating.

  4. Feel the chest pulling the arms through.
