FYB- Forward yet back.. Hitters who gain forward ground witch leverages the front side of the body including the lead leg while at the same time not compromising the rear leg/hip relationship..

Said another way its a dynamic hitting position... Leverage needs to occur before the whip happens in the swing. IOW's hitters need to beat the pitcher to a position of leverage. If one doesn't the hitters will need to push the hands as away of adjusting.

Ah, thanks - totally down with the concept, the acronym was eluding me, lol.

How many of you guys prefer stride to toe touch with the heel drop as a trigger. Im asking to know if that would be a good timing mechanism to keep from launching to early before the stride foot gets down.
I prefer stride to heel and straighten front leg to fire the swing. Take all the slack out.
