Hi Paul. This demonstration of a very restricted hip turn versus a great shoulder turn proves your spring effect. Anthony is unable to turn his hips 45 degrees but the good shoulder turn creates a lot of torque. I tend to lift the toe of my left foot to get extra turn. It would seem it’s better to leave the foot flat and create more spring effect by merely rotating the shoulders as much as possible. Would you agree?
He does great for what he has to work with. Coil and uncoil. Yes, lifting the foot can be an issue. Lifting it going back gives you a good feeling of power in the arms to hit the ball hard but you have no torque. So try keeping it down and working on a tight coil . See how you do.
