Help me understand your thinking, and I’ll try to explain just swinging.

I’m just trying to understand what you have thought up. Like most of descriptions on the swing it’s based on thinking and very little about just doing it. lol
what I have thought up?? LOL. Have you heard a pro say they want to be ‘on top’?? How about ‘inside’?? Ever heard them say they want to be ‘on and around’??? dude seriously?
again what is ‘on’?
Not ideal, I don’t think anyone sets out to have that barrel position. Although there is nothing wrong with her swing as far as adjusting on a inside pitch.
Although she is sliding her hands forward and getting ahead of the lowerbody. Back leg isn’t pulling the hands/barrel through. Again, not a bad adjustment.
Your funny. I’ve listened to your thinking long enough to understand you base the swing and theoretical nonsense.

I don’t understand why your asking what on is. On and around is a point when the lowerbody is going one way and barrel (upper body) is going the other way.
Your getting behind a pulling back leg.
Your getting behind a pulling back leg.
an adjustable HPP. She was thinking oppo and adjusted. she kept her radius short. Not ‘on and around‘. ‘inside and direct‘ is what the real world calls it.
I guess On refers to the back leg .
She is just starting with the barrel pointing backwards a little. That effects how much she can send the barrel backwards. Her early bat speed is weakened. It’s still there but your seeing style and trying trying to make an absolute. How far her hands are back is also style, which affects on and around.
Yes, attack oppo.
Shawn you need to keep working and exploring. the best advice I can give you is teach someone. then you will see what you’re saying isn’t right. no pro leans back ’on’ their back leg and rolls theIr barrel ‘around’.
nobody is trying to send the barrel backwards(around).No such thing as early batspeed it’s early acceleration and bat speed into the ball.
getting the hands back creates depth. It’s adjustable. As it should be. something that doesn’t compute to the HLP guys.
show me a good hitter that doesn’t get on top and then take their hands to it. I know you can’t. but please try.
Watch Jrs. Lead arm and stride adjust. It’s automatic bc the goal is present.
