Rear Arm Connection

Average distance between the rear elbow and mid-torso (halfway between mid-shoulder and mid-hip joint centers) between launch and ball contact events.

Technical Details

• Variable Type: Discrete Metric
• Data Type: Float

• Measurement: Average distance from rear elbow to mid-torso
• Timing: Launch to ball contact events
• Typical Range: 0.3-0.4 meters

Description

Rear arm connection measures the average distance between the rear elbow and the mid-torso during the swing. This metric indicates the relative connection and efficiency of the rear arm position to the torso during the acceleration phase. Maintaining a tight connection between rear arm and torso improves power transfer.

Use Cases

• Arm connection analysis
• Swing efficiency assessment
• Power transfer evaluation
