first of all, the arms have no movement. Try to hit with the hands higher, and drive the pole into the back of the box. Second, there is no knee drive. really think about jumping off of the ground and driving the knee through the bottom. Third, your trail leg doesn't ever really do anything, you're just tucking up and aiming for the bar. Rip the trail leg through hard and finish the swing! Rock back drills obviously help with this idea. Good luck man! Have a great season! :yes:
