Take your left hand grip, then right hand(lead/trail) at IMPACT POSITION. Now, just let your arms relax a little, and go to a CLASSIC ADDRESS POSITION(hands fairly centered). Notice where your elbows are pointing, with NO TWISTING of the arms at all.

The left arm(lead) should be hanging down like an INERT ROPE. It is stretched straight, ONLY through what TGM calls, EXTENSOR ACTION. Here, the RIGHT(trail) arm stretches the the INERT left arm(lead) rope.

There is plenty of information on the site on EXTENSOR ACTION.

Thanks for the reply. I feel like I understand the idea of extensor action however I need to reference the different positions you mention that I assume are in the book (which I dont yet have).

Is there any picture on the site of IMPACT FIX? I am really trying to understand this concept. Does this mean setting up (rehearsing)your body positions prior to swinging, to mimic the positions one would be in at impact?
