"Clear"
Your Right Side In Your Takeaway Move
An
often used instruction to start the takeaway is to initiate the
movement with your left arm and left side. Little thought is given to
your right side. Your right side has to move backwards, out of the way,
for your left side to arc comfortably down and under your chin. And,
guess what?
Correctly
pulling your right shoulder area back to your right heel will
comfortably draw your left shoulder under your chin without any
difficult pushing activity.
But,
how do you pull your right side backwards as indicated above? First, a
practice exercise.
Your
back muscle is very powerful --- when it is stretched out and then
tightened aggressively. The effort needed by this muscle to draw your
right shoulder backwards is not very much. In my lessons, I use an
arbitrary number like one twentieth of its power.
This
is the only conscious movement you need to do the “one piece
takeaway”.
In
the accompanying pictures and videos you can see how my upper body
responds to the one movement described above.
