Ben said...: This is the first of your videos I've watched. Very well done Tom! I remember a coach in high school would always emphasize "knee drive" - which looking back was probably another way of getting us to focus on engaging the core and hip flexors. Definitely good advice.; February 5, 2013 at 2:35 PM
