There are some very cool things about this video that intrigued me. Well over 95% of the gofling public use a pivot controlled hands backstroke. We have heard for decades that the big muscles move the backswing. Why then is this procedure superior?
A few teasers -
Think about the ball and socket joint of the right shoulder for a moment. Is this purely a lateral motion of the right shoulder joint (fanning)?
When does the horizontal motion of the right shoulder joint come into play?
What direction is the right elbow allowed (by nature) to move?
Why is this procedure superior to a big muscle backstroke? (Acutally a combination of many, many small trunk and back muscles working in unison because the only big muscles of the upper trunk are lats and chest muscles)
When the right shoulder joint moves laterally, what tendons, muscles. and their attached bones are pulled as a result?
Should these pulled trunk muscles be active or passive?
Dust off Gray's Anatomy if you need to.
