Lag comes from the hands and arms, not the body

The speaker argues lag and release come primarily from the hands and arms, with body positioning only supporting it. His thought experiment: give someone perfect lever lag and release with the hands and arms but a weird body setup and they will still hit the ball pretty well, whereas someone with no hand-and-arm lag and release but a perfect body setup will still struggle. A mental model for where to focus when working on lag.
