Here is how he did it. At the start of the down swing his left arm which is connected to the upper body which is connected to the lower body provided an opposing force to the thrust and torque of the right hand and arm. This opposing force activates muscles in the body to try to prevent the thrust and torque from moving down for a fraction of a second. [/quote] I tried that before its actually an interesting concept...have you considered using another part of your body as an opposing force against the right hand/arm?? pistol View Public Profile Send a private message to pistol Find all posts by pistol
