I have developed hip pain in my leading hip over the past few months of form work. I wanted to share some thoughts about it since I believe it is due to a common problem found among amateur throwers. The red squares below highlight a problematic and similar hip position in two amateurs (the...

Thanks Brychanus! That clarified shoulder collapse in the context I was thinking about. Your section in "The Good Swing" on hip and leg action clarified "clearing the hips" or "hip clearance" in the context I had in mind, the front hip. "As a result, the leading hip begins to be forced back up...

Update: I've had to slow down frequency of practice due to life circumstances and nagging groin pain. It seems like the internal rotation at the plant is stressing something in my left hip. I'm hoping this is something related to bad form which means I may be able to fix it with proper form...

I'm consistently baffled by my belief that if I do near full power drives enough times I will figure out good form. Pride and ego want me to believe it will come easy or that I can cut corners. I too, hope it sticks the first time. I've been practicing clement's downswing wieghtshift. It is...

Thanks Brychanus! It seems that I think leaning away will somehow generate more momentum leading into the brace. Clearly it does not. Going to work on staying balanced and stacked over back foot during coil and getting leading shoulder behind rear hip as you suggest, starting with standstills...

Hello, First of all, thank you to Brychanus for leading me here from youtube and for sharing his form journey. Thank you to SW for the treasure trove of knowledge and for sharing it so freely. Thank you to everyone else who contributes to these forums. I have been studying backhand form for...

Just wanted to introduce myself. I have been loitering anonymously in the forums for some time. Led here seeking form advice after discovering Brychanus on youtube when he payed respect to seabass22, unlike so many other youtubers who blatantly borrow from him while trying to pass it off as...
