Keep the hands back and get some separation.
How does that apply any type of force?

Resistance? IDK, I see it more than I feel it, so how do you teach it?
Can you look at the Tyson video in quicktime? Frames 10-15, forward momentum, back elbow down, front elbow forward, hands come forward some. There has to be some pressure in the hands, I dont feel it or think about it.
The separation doesnt cause the force, I should have said the separation allows for a greater force. MTS drill is starting without that force, its going to be different if you slot the elbow with a running start, so to speak, with momentum. Which might be the point, slow it down to where you can feel the hands doing something. But that is where we dont agree. To me, the feel, "turning the barrel" is what you see in frames 10-15, its a feel of resistance or winding up, getting the arms in position to unwind. The hands are moving the barrel as a result of getting the elbows in position, besides that they are just resisting momentum so they dont fly out of position.
You could say "stay strong on the backside", that works for me. That might be a better way to describe creating the force, sync the hand to the shoulder and keep the hands back, to communicate getting more force through separation. I still dont want to think about the hands, not yet, they just do what they have to do for the elbows and arms to get into connection in the right position.
So let get this straight, after 13 pages nobody can agree what the front elbow is suppose to do? No wonder there are so many screwed up swings out there. Good luck I hope that you will be able to come to common ground, It get's really tiring reading about who's better than who depending on what day it is. Come on people. Have a Merry Christmas
Go for the meat...spit out the bones. There is a lot of excellent information within this thread. This is what an online forum is. There is usually a video posted or a comment made that is really helpful...sometimes an epiphany that will change the way you approach or understand things. Other times the threads serve to reinforce what you are doing. Sift through the 13 pages. There is a lot of good stuff.So let get this straight, after 13 pages nobody can agree what the front elbow is suppose to do? No wonder there are so many screwed up swings out there.
