Re: Top hand torque: pulling back or rotation of the hands

As I revisit Jack's videos, I remember him saying that PLT (Pre-Launch Torque) is the rotation of the back forearm and THT is push & pull effect of the hands from PLT & THT Mechanics. From THT mechanics (punching bag), Jack says "as elbow lowers pull the bottom hand" to apply THT. But from Demonstrating Torque (PLT & THT) Mechanics from Sosa and Strawberry, it looks like to me that PLT is applied before front foot is planted and THT is applied after front foot plantation.

This song is traditionally sung during the 7th inning stretch?
   All My Roudy Friends
   Take Me Out to the Ballgame
   I Wish I was in Dixie
   Hail to the Chief
