Using surgical tubing, anchor one end under the left toe or on the plane line as you described. Tie the other end at the bottom of of the grip near the shaft or as close to PP#3 as comfortable. Concentrate on a right forearm pick-up and you will really feel the stretch. Now, for the interesting part...for drag loading, keep the tubing UNDER the right wrist or forearm (feel the loading of the secondary lever); for drive loading assume your grip keeping the tubing BETWEEN the forearms (notice how the entire primary lever assembly loads). Let me know what you think.

It's hard for me to comment without seeing you do it. I'm imagining what it would look like in my mind, having the tubing under the right wrist/forearm seems a bit exaggerated to me. But like I said, I can't be sure until I see you do it. But if it works for you and your students then all is good!
