Brush contact in full motion

[shaker1]

I learned without video she can be deceptive. For example, she can look correct to the eye at 9:00 but on video I can see when she stops the upper arm short of connection and turn the palm and push.

No pushing here, totally loaded. Let IR happpen.

I’m using the Hillhouse teach of coming across the body in the full motion to help get that forearm into the side. It seems to be helping. I’ve also got a 17 year old that doesn’t have brush and I’m debating on whether to incorporate it or not. She does miss to pitching arm side with fastball and I know it’s due to no brush. On film she does get internal rotation without brush

I really don't know enough about that teach. Is there a thread where it's discussed? One of Bill's YouTube videos?
I have used a ton of cues and a variety of feels for my DD. Again, slowing it down to where she only moves quickly enough to still make it happen along with removing the results normally associated with pitching seem to help.
When we started I could tell my DD was struggling with feeling any of it. You could see that even doing glove snaps or throwing to her own glove, she wasn't doing things in a way to show she understood palm up, catching whip, rotating internally, brush, etc. Now I can see these things starting to happen much better with her self throws/glove snaps.Trouble is translating to drills and arm circle. We aren't close to it happening correctly on a pitch.

Shaker, by loaded, do you mean palm up/out to release? That's what I think of by it.

Yes, that's how I see, feel it

Regardless of the pitch being thrown, the key to getting brush triggering is in the posture. There should be very little disconnection of the upper and lower torso.
