Don't straighten the right leg. Keep the knee bent. You want the right thigh to be vertical so the knee can continue driving forward & around the left side block. The bent knee will also maintain your backward lean w/o having to arch your back into a weaker C position. @MaxKruk5
Ok Max @MaxKruk5, let's see how your right sweep leg is doing.
1) Higher right knee
2) Point right knee & foot to 9:00 this will separate your knees more
What can we learn from a moment in time in discus.
The moment when your right foot and knee point to 12:00 and your hips are square to 12:00:
1) Left elbow below shoulder line
2) Right shin angled
3) Left foot late

@nelsph0119 the amount of knowledge and advice I have learned from Coach Nels led me to this great achievement. From pictures and videos explaining precisely what I should see from my throws to long texts explaining hard concepts all for free...
Secret tip for those, like me, that think TikTok advice is not detailed enough.
The top 3 photos result in a very good power position compared to the lower 3 photos.
The final separated position is determined by how far back the left elbow is in the first 2 photos.

This really happened tonight didn't it Max @MaxKruk5? He's in Maine and I'm in Washington State yet he can ask a question and get a McAnswer that fixes his problem 8 minutes later.
Anybody else need a McAnswer?
Use a powerful left side block to keep the upper body back and rotate around a backward angled axis.
