After all the fine instructors you've been with to date, how'd you get to this point with Phil's hinge and hold?? Only 12 minutes in so far, but loving this guy. Getting my water bottle out, now. . .

@mntlblok 6 ай бұрын

*Dang* this guy is good. I share your (sometimes) entering the sand further behind the ball than intended. He (or you?) seemed to diagnose that you sometimes "fall back". His "fix" seems to be to maintain or to even *increase* the flex in the left knee. I never "feel" that I fell back or that I lost any flex in the left knee, but there's that divot arguing against me. *However*, he earlier points out how "hinge and holders" yip it by having to "dip down". My question is, does anybody know whether dipping with *one* knee is qualitatively different from dipping with two? 🙂 Fascinating that he's so capable of dealing with different degrees of "engineerness" and "feel" on the same issue. Always logical with it, either way. Love it. Thanks for sharing.

@Akzill 5 ай бұрын

@@mntlblok Flexing left knee allows your angle of attack to stay "down" therefore allowing the misses to "land short and roll out" instead of sculling and all those other interesting strikes a neutral angle of attack can produce 😅
