p.s.
IMO the hands don’t move via mental telepathy … but instead via a sequential series of “under the hood” muscle actions that “establish” a “connected swing” … which, IMO, is why MarkH often spoke of “connection” as an “action”, and not as a “position” or “body orientation”.
You need to be careful with trying to have a “connected swing” by simply “wishing it” … all too often you end up with a pre-set fused upper body … which in a sense is a whip killer. Instead, the role of the upper body is to remain ‘relaxed’, and to allow ‘connection’ to be established at “swing initiation”.
This is not directed at you specifically, but all of us involved.
I said this for along time and it continues, and continues and continues . . . .
And, It's why I am asking for clarification from anyone who wants to chime in.
Mark H (you as well): CONNECTION is a PROCESS (connecting)
Candrea: CONNECTION is a POSITION (connected)
Since I am not chatting with Candrea, but rather you, we can't effectively communicate because I am flying by Candrea's definition of connection.
This is just one example of why understanding is usually lacking on web discussions.
Mike Candrea:
connection - rear elbow and rear hand lining up with the stripe of the pants.
Another example:
Slotted rear elbow is not synonymous with slotting rear elbow.
Is a SLOTTED rear elbow the same as Candrea's definition of CONNECTION?
