You know I've seen this movement a thousand times.. but this does not explain your comments about posture. As a matter of fact we both know this hitter here has 0 posture???

LOL.. ok, not going to rehash this. But obviously your version of down to vs mine is much differentHis spine maintains its position. Plenty of posture.
Cue up the previous thread where I displayed hitters changing posture(degrees) depending on pitch location. You achieve it as per pitch location and then you maintain it to stay on the ball(barrel path) and create space for the hands. If you don't create the correct "degrees of posture" then you are left with the following options;The degrees of posture is not what is in question. It was how to maintain posture without having to maintain posture correct? Isn’t that what you asked me? I said use the hands and not rotating the upper body. I showed Pujols doing so.
It’s about Maintaining a spine angle through the ball. Not about maintaining a certain amount of bend. Cue a Griffey swing. Very little ‘posture’ per your definition. But has plenty of ‘posture’ to stay through the ball.

1. Chop down on the ball.. literally swing down, steep down to and you do not get on path with the ball
2. DBSF
3. TTB
Degrees of posture(how much the chest is over the plate) mean everything.. otherwise you do exactly what Pujois is demoing, and that's not what we see in a MLB swing
Anyway we've been through this before, let's agree to disagree. I asked you a specific question and you provided a gif.. it didn't explain anything, at least not to me
