Ok, I just don't agree that setup makes no difference in how one moves, not everyone goes back to go forwards

All to say, Haley is doing something else for reasons.
The open stance gives you a stronger coil feeling. It’s a loading technique. It might be a stride technique as well, but first it’s a loading technique.
Ok here is the swing at full speed. It’s a good speed to look at to actually see the coil and leverage against the back leg. You can see the going backwards to go forwards.
Here’s the physical coiling, going backwards to go forward. For every action there is an opposite and equal reaction.

He’s picking his front knee up. He’s not going backward to go forward. Pick your front knee up and tell me what your body does
You can’t see it at full speed?
It’s more then simple lifting the front knee.
It’s similar to pinching the knees together.
Shawn, since this is Haley's thread can you use examples of players who actually utilize the same movement pattern ? None of the videos you share match what Rich teaches (forced actions out of sequence).

1. Coil or falling?
2. I don’t see just pick up your foot and fall forward.
1. Both
2. I never said this.
Of course. High level hitters do not swing with one foot in mid-air
And of course, they 'fall' (Jeff Bagwell has his own method
). You are trying to land on a very bent front leg.
