MEHere are my top 3 tips to my most asked question 👇🏼
1. Slow to fast approach
You want to gain momentum with your approach to maximize jump height, timing, and therefore power. It is better to be late than early.
Slow step close = no power 🥲
2. Open your hips to your setter
Hip-shoulder separation is key. You can see on my step close my left foot turns to open my hips to my setter. This allows me to now use my body in a twisting (throwing-like) motion. My core is doing all the work, not my shoulder 😉
3. Loose arms
Your arms should be loose and fluid. It all starts with a big double arm lift. Try to think about hitting yourself in the back of the head with your arms (take a look at how far mine go back 😅). Once in the air I like to think of my arm as a whip or a wet pasta noodle. The flow of momentum should be from my hip -> to shoulder -> to arm -> to wrist. The faster you can make this chain reaction the more powerful your swing will become!
Speed 🤝 Power
Happy Hitting 🥳
