<aside> ❓

The Why? Lets connect the hip-drive timing with the arm throw!

<aside> 🚧

Corrections: We want the athlete to fall into the pike with straight legs first before driving through the hips and throwing the arms, so when it all comes together they are in the proper BHS body position so muscle memory begins to develop.
