Here are some silly ways (working with my son- forgive me) to think about the extension action and the flying wedges:

At address the hands begin to establish the flying wedges but they are loose. The small tug of the right hand GLUES or SNAPS the wedges tight. This tug is the start of the running dog.

The right hand is that dog- running free as it takes the club back but the left arm is a leash that stags the still running right hand dog at the top of the back swing .... Checkrein Action

Dog is still running (in place) on the down stroke in a linear direction away from (along the shape of) the forearm- not in the direction of the path of the hands. If the dog stops running the glue comes apart. That bungee cord shrinks. The leash gets limp. No sitting mutts.

The other end of the dog’s leash is the left shoulder. That post is now moving the dog and leash. The dog (right hand) for swingers does not move the leash along the path- it is still running in a linear line (not to be confused with the right elbow straighten and driving- like a big wind blowing the dog sideways). The left shoulder- the leash post- moved to the right and now is pulling back to the left back to its center.

You wonder why we let the big dog eat !!
