i am confused. does the right elbow bend first and the right upper arm move away from the right upper chest or is it the other way around?the right upper arm moves away and then makes the bend at the elbow?
Forget about 'right upper arm away from the upper chest.' This is 'Position Golf' without Alignments and is almost worthless. In Start Up (8-4) concentrate on 'Pointing at the Plane Line' (2-F and 7-5) with the Right Forearm and the #3 Pressure Point. Go through the Basic Motion Curriculums of 12-5-1 and 12-5-2. First the Right Elbow Bends and then the Right Elbow Fans. And always with Extensor Action.
