Notice this.... as the video comes on-it is catching him at the beginning of his stride. But watch what his hands are doing as he strides-the are reaching back-walking away. The bottom hand's arm barring this creates is only a problem if you throw your hands out away form your body on the swing. But I am not saying to do that. That is death to a swing. But an early barring of the arm is actually what most of the great hitters do. It creates torque which produces effortless bat speed.
