As far as I can tell only the Right Arm and Shoulder are in a position to Push.
In hitting, the left hand is the "fulcrum", whereas the right is the "force" (and the club is the "weight")-class III Lever, in which the "fulcrum" needs to be pushed against (as well) in order for the "force" to be applied.
In hitting, the right hand can be the "fulcrum", whereas the left be the "force" (and the club is the "weight")-class I Lever, in which the "fulcrum (the right hand)" needs to be pushed against (as well) in order for the "force (the left hand)" to be applied.
In either case, the left hand/side needs to "push" (while being pulled/draged by the pivot).

"Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一).
The "LAW" creates the "effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the "cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
"Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn. Bend the shaft.

In either case, the left hand/side needs to "push" (while being pulled/draged by the pivot).
I can't even visualize this for hitting unless we are talking about a left handed golfer.
First - Only a form III lever is used in the golf stroke. Look at a form 1 lever (2-L) and tell me how this is done. Also take a look at 6-A-2 for further clarification.
Second - Only the right arm is in a position to push.
Finally - The left side contribution to muscle power is so minimal, it isn't even considered in the power package and even pivot power isn't necessary for hitting. There is no "left hand" force in hitting.
I know you are trying to enlighten us BTS, but like 6B mentioned: "There is a lot of seems as if in this thread".

In Hitting, we are accelerating the Primary Lever Assembly which has a Form III lever with the Fulcrum at the Left Shoulder, not the left hand. When the Fulcrum is in the Left Wrist the Weight is now in the Clubhead an additiional Form III lever used normally in Swinging; accelerating the Secondary Lever Assembly. Reference 2-L, 6-A-2, and 6-A-3 and let me know how your application fits into TGM.
