My quote was "If anyone tells you to straighten the Right Arm from the Top, hand them their sign ." Replacing the words "to straighten" with "to feel like straightening" should keep you from handing out the sign.

Ironically, I was working with a fellow professional, yesterday. He has Accumulator Lag and I was trying to get him to straighten his Right Arm as quickly as he could from the Top. He's left hand dominant, so he has always struggled with the use of his Right Arm.

One of the 'secrets' in getting someone to change quickly is to get the student to do an opposite. The opposite of keeping his Right Arm bent forever is to try to straighten it immediately.

But, he knows the goal, and he knows that we're trying to accelerate the learning process.
