Natural Arm Slots
The degree to which your Lower Body drives your Upper Body determines whether your “natural arm slot” is productive or needs to be altered.

Optimal Hand and Leg Movements

Every time your Hand and/or Leg actions cause your Lower Body to prematurely land, you’re challenged to move Throwing Hand position to a point that generates a reasonably accurate result. You’re forced to find an “artificially altered arm slot” that works for you on that particular day.

Injury Resistant vs. Injury Prone Motions
Both “naturally productive arm slots” and “artificially altered arm slots” motions produce the same force. With a “naturally productive arm slot”, all the energy moves into your Throwing Hand. On the other hand, “artificially altered arm slots” seem more injury prone because a portion of the energy generated by your motion dissipates into your Throwing Elbow/Shoulder.
Note: Patterns we’ve observed and intuitively reasoned indicate that “naturally productive arm slots” appear much more injury resistant than “artificially altered arm slots”.
