You need to try it for yourself. Only then will you fully grasp it. Chaz Pippen was the inventor. The original idea was used for the stride foot stepping outward. So they put elastic bands pulling the leg out. The batter HAD to use muscle to step straight or else they would fall down. After a few dozen swings, the batter stepped straight automatically! The idea for the arms as born.EF … you are describing a device that actively applies a force in the direction that brings the elbow together. It isn’t like a hitter should resist that force to build structure. Instead, there is a compression-like action in the arms that builds structure, and that structure is what manages elbow separation … not an active application of force counter to what the rubber band would be applying. It is more a building of structure, that renders the rubber band ineffective in terms of bringing the elbows closer together … and not an application of pressure that would that of the rubber band. The elbows will come closer to each other initially as structure is established … and it is the building of that structure which restricts further decreasing the elbow distance, not a force counter to the rubber band.
Its much easier to build muscle memory when your actually using muscle. This tool will build the correct posture in the upper body so that the hands will be in the proper position to "turn the barrel"!!!! All I'm saying is don't knock it until you've tried it.
