Thanks for the link. To me there seems to a subtle difference between right arm thrust with the tricep verus active participation which I am not sure I really understand. If the triceps don't unfold the right elbow then what is unfolding it that is active?

Thanks
Dave

The right tricep is doing the work for both swings. The difference is that with "hitting" and using pp#1 you are actively pushing BEHIND the shaft, this automatically produces an angled hinge.

Now if you simply un-bend your right arm (actively and consciously like you would throwing a punch) you are simply using right arm acceleration and can easily produce horizontal hinging.
