the cause of pre-launch torque

Posted by: dougdinger () on Wed Dec 28 15:08:31 2005

From Jack's research, he's concluded that adding torque to your swing will maximize your bat speed-most notably bottomh-hand torque. He's explained that BHT is caused by the front shoulder rotating around, and back toward the catcher. THT is caused by a higher back elbow being pulled down to the side at the beginning of the swing. But I still haven't been able to figure out what causes pre-launch torque, and how to perform this certain move. Anyone? Jack?
