Right Arm Activation

[Yoda]

Have any of you found that the RIGHT FOREARM TAKEAWAY, and/or PICKUP, can activate the right arm in such a way as to encourage too active of a right arm for a Swinger? The Swinger wants his right arm Passive-- 3 Barrel, during the release sequence.

What do you think?

If you're thinking in terms of the right arm (and its Extensor Action), you shouldn't have a problem. However, if you think in terms of the right hand, you're dead.

Why?

Because you will probably cock your right wrist.

And that's where the heartaches begin . . .

Thanks Mr. Yoda.

The Book in 2-M says the Deltoids raise the arms. These are a group of muscles in the shoulders. The Anterior, Middle, and Posterior Deltoids.

After thinking about this... the arms and club are elevated, by a combination of bicep(right arm) and the deltoids of the right shoulder. It seems that if the deltoids are not doing thier job, possibly due to an injury, the club may tend to go around the body too much, in a very flat plane.

It looks to me that in the picture in 9-1-5, that the right deltoids have been activated, and have given the right shoulder a sort of shrug. If this were not the case, the arms would be hanging nearly the same distance, however, the right hand is higher than the left in the picture. Try this, as in the pictures. The hands do not get back to level to each other until 9-1-8.

What do you think?
