This article broke down the swing and I asked my hitting coach what he thought was most important and what I needed to work on. He told me that my arms were in too tight and I wasn't following through properly. The article states "The arms will be at maximum extension, followed by the shoulders still rotating. To allow for a state of balance in the follow through these factors must be in place. After maximizing extension, the arms should be broken down.", which is what I was trying to accomplish in the video.
