Right Arm...Fold and Lift or Just Fold ??????

[Yoda]

For me and my level of understanding, I feel a difference between Hit and Swinging the "base" established with the feet. For now, I am not able to formulate a more specific question and will stay tuned in.

When Swinging, you will Feel your Knees and Feet supporting the Body's Rotation and its resultant gyroscopic Centrifugal Throw-out Action. When Hitting, you will Feel them supporting a stable Body that resists the straight-line, Muscular Drive-out Action of Right Arm Thrust.
