The problem is....you can do everything they see....in order....and still not have a high level swing. You can do every segment they call for....in the order they call for....and never achieve a stretched load that results in the sudden SNAP of the barrel forward.
Swingbuilder is an IDIOT when it comes to hitting.
Here are two of his prized students....
NEITHER have any usable stretch.
How can you take the advice of the instructor who produced these swings....who talks SEQUENCE SEQUENCE SEQUENCE....when each of them have the sequence he likes....yet BOTH PUSH THE BARREL FORWARD WITH THEIR ARMS.
At some point in time....you have to use that God-given brain....and think for yourself....and not let nonsense get force fed into you.
FiveFrameNoSwing....is the most dangerous mouthpiece on the internet. He blatantly accepts non truths.....and promotes them. As a result....others spew the same nonsense.
Ask yourself.....WHY.....has there never been ONE hitter....that joined the public sites.....and improved to the point of matching high level video?
WHY?
The student does what is suggested.
The student still pushes the barrel.
WHY?
Because SEQUENCE is their latest snipe hunt. The SEQUENCE never creates usable stretch.
THAT'S WHY.
Tell us....FiveFrameNoSwing....what IS the proper sequence....so we can see what is lacking.
Would you like her to add a bit of momentum? Where? When? How?
Be sure your advice does not take her stretch from her.
Come with it mouthpiece.
Forward by coil can be done AND be in pattern....and it can be done and NOT BE in pattern.
Forward by coil is the SURFACE....that they can see.
Forward by coil is a BANDAID....applied by those who see that action but have no idea what is actually going on that causes that visual.
This girl.....

....gets to the stretched/loaded position....WITHOUT FORWARD MOMENTUM.
If she simply PICKED UP HER LEAD FOOT to move out....as she's pulling back....and learned to control it....she would forward by coil. She almost forward by coils as is.
THE FORWARD BY COIL DOES NOT CAUSE THE HIGH LEVEL SWING TO HAPPEN.
What this girl does UNDER THE HOOD....CAUSES the high level pattern....and the addition of a 'forward by coil' may or may not help her. Nothing wrong with it. But forward by coil is NOT an absolute of the high level sequence.
This girl knows how to install the SPRING in her rear hip and leg. If you remove that you send her to soccer. AND....without a seasoned instructor....which we know FiveFrameNoSwing is not....he has no students.....forward momentum will REMOVE her spring.
FiveFrameNoSwing would add momentum....by way of forward by coil.....to achieve a LOOK that he wants to see. He NEEDS to see a certain LOOK because he has no idea what forward by coil ACTUALLY DOES in high level hitters. He would REMOVE the engine this girl creates....he would REPLACE the stretched/loaded FEEL that this girl has.....with momentum that creates a LOOK that he wants to see.
Shameful.
Elementary.
When you add chappedass's definition of coil.....and the move.....you get a LOOK. You do not get a usable stretch that powers the swing.
Many good hitters achieve FULL COMPLETE hip coil immediately....as they assume their stance....before any noticeable movement.
THEN they move out.
It ain't the hip's coil that causes the forward by coil.
