Man I just want to tell you that you're One of a Kind, I'm a very curious person especially in my work field... searched all of the internet for this type of explanation content, could only find you. Wish I did before my Slap repair/biceps tenodesis surgery. Thanks a lot

[@torqvb]

Thank you!

[@ohywashehere2396]

great explanation! one of the best on youtube for sure

[@s2lai]

This is the best explanation I have seen on the entire internet. your videos and the intuition and technique and explanations have helped me understand what it means to use your body as a whip. thanks a lot man

[@torqvb]

Simon Lai Those are very kind words Simon, thank you very much. I’m happy they’ve helped you.

A few things Incredible videos, 10/10 honestly. I do have a few questions however. 1. I noticed a lot of cracking when you were doing the movements and I feel like I've never had this addressed. Is this normal? Whenever we do warmups we rotate our arms backwards and forwards and mine crack soooooo much when they rotate up and back but no one else's seems to, is this like just a normal thing for some people? 2. I've noticed I can do this pretty much fine on the ground (still working on perfecting it) but as soon as I'm in the air, I have no control it seems. It feels like both no time to do anything and also no ground points to push off, cause y'know I'm in the air. Is there like something you do in your approach as you jump or is it just control that you learn over time. Thanks so much Isaac

Thank you for this great content!

[@torqvb]

Edward Sullivan you’re welcome!

[@andreyk470]

Thanks for clear explanations, specifically for the slow-mo examples! How often do you recommend to practice those in order to make the swing movement natural and automatical?

[@torqvb]

Андрей Корнеев As many times as it takes my friend.

[@feilipsen4403]

Thanks for the great explanation! But should I release the retraction of the scapular, when I feel the big stretch in the front, so it unleashes even more, or is it bad for the shoulder?

[@mattanderson6757]

Hello, this isn’t really related to the video, but can you explain the legs bending or trailing backwards when you spike the ball? Also thanks a lot for these videos! I notice that a lot of the pro volleyball players like Matt Anderson and Yuki Ishikawa does this when hitting!

Yeah this please, my jumps always end up like micheal jordan splits in the air, especially when im trying to adjust my jump inwards for an off set.

[@nicholaslim8817]

i sent Isaac a dm regarding this question. The answer was to help propel the torso forwards, which is essential to hitting properly. If u watch his other video (the kinetic chain) he breaks down the 3 main aspects of hitting, hip to torso to arm swing.

[@nguyensimon6425]

When I pull my arm back and my twist torso while external rotation i feel this pinch you were talking about... I dont know if it should be like this but this pinch kind of hurts :/ can someone help?

[@christinberg]

Can you upload this video again with enhanced audio, the volume is considerably lower than your other videos.

[@patrickzweifel7658]

Thanks for the video! So try to think of activating your scapula muscles when pulling your arm back? Did i get that right? Anyway, really appreciate your work

[@torqvb]

Patrick Zweifel Yes that’s correct. You need to get accustomed to feeling both so you know your joint is stabilized and your allowing those internal rotators to stretch. Thanks for the comments!

[@patrickzweifel7658]

@@torqvb I will try, thank you

[@larsbos5481]

I feel like I am able to do this quite well now, but my problem is that I cannot seem to figure out how to do this and at the same time hit at my highest point with volleybal, any tips?

[@paolobruno7352]

Wow can't I retract properly my shoulder in mid air?
