Thats because Judge wasn't able to do so without shifting the weight across the pelvis to the lead leg.. Judge would be slow and long if his foot isn't down. We no Rich didn't teach him how to get fyb .
What makes you think we don’t teach that position? The stretch that runs around the leg, around the crouch or psoas muscle.
The leg is turning a still coiled pelvis. No opening of the hips from the position the back leg is in position to pull.
We have drills to teach to swing from that position. No stride, command drill.
