while coil 'can' be beneficial in terms of power, the real issue is removal of 'slack', which can be done without muscular tension - like Snead did.

The links of the chain must move in the right order, and coil helps 'ensure' that order - it is the sequence, and resulting leverage, that give the power, not the muscle tension
