Flexibility is important

I coud be way off base here but that's what I'm doing.
Hi M. My left leg is 1.75" shorter than my right. That and the artificial hip make me feel as if I am climbing a small hill when I let my left heel rise but the BALANCE is possible with a solid TRIPOD as a full turn is made. FLEXIBILITY IMPROVES WITH THIS EXERCISE AS DOES CLUB-HEAD SPEED AND POWER. THE FLAIL MUST BE TRAINED. I can now, after one week, stay very steady over a ball and let my left heel come way up!
