Is this something that is supposed to be timed and, if so, why would you need/want to do that? If the law of the flail says that the club is always seeking to get in line with the left arm, why would you need to snap the hips to throw the club out? The club is going to align with the left arm without making any attempt to throw it out, right? Jimmy - a "cracking whip" is an image that can be quite helpful when understanding the transfer of power, and the alingments of the body and club to supply the best support of impact, the least deceleration, through impact. You need to know each side of the coin. The left and right arms meet in the middle at PP#1. Balance is a great thing from all perspectives. That is the key to applying balanced, efficient, force in all areas. A very important concept to understand IMO. __________________ "Support the On Plane Swinging Force in Balance" "we have no friends, we have no enemies, we have only teachers" Simplicity buffs, see 5-0, 1-L, 2-0 A and B 10-2-B, 4-D, 6B-1D, 6-B-3-0-1, 6-C-1, 6-E-2 EdZ View Public Profile Send a private message to EdZ Find all posts by EdZ
