What is Zero Pivot in the Hinge Action Education Drill?
For the purposes of a newbie just getting started in TGM and trying out my first drill (the Hinge Action Education), what EXACTLY is a Zero Pivot?
Does a Zero Pivot imply that the only thing that should move are the arms ? (i.e. is the idea to get the feel of having no rotation around the spine?)
I tried this drill over the weekend, and can only assume that (if I was doing it correctly) the ZP causes a "feel" that will be felt only (or primarily) by "hitters" and not "swingers".
1) Hinge Action Education
Per 2-G: "For a Practice drill, Educate the Left Hand (5-0) to reproduce - with Zero Pivot - the three Hinge Actions, distinct and separate, while swinging continuously back and forth. First without a Club, then with a short Club, then with both Hands. Then with increasing Pivot motion using the Right Forearm per 7-19. Learning only one Action isn't so helpful because you won't know their differences.
