Mills legs too high? - 03-30-2004, 06:01 PM

Hey, I've been working on mills, and my friend told me that when I go into it (i dont actually have them yet) my legs go too high. About how high should your legs be when you start the kicking or spinning or whatever you like to call it? I dont feel like its to high, but I really trust this guy (he has mills no hand mills bullets what ever you say he prob has it) haha yea, but I feel like I'll hit the ground if i am lower, should i not care about that and just do it? And once again how low should it be?




bull. shit.

Even though that's a rare case, it happens.

Normally your legs should be straight and stiff, so they should be straight with your body. If you're going too high, you're either:

1) Stabbing too high
2) Jumping, and I mean actually jumping, into the mill
3) Leaning over (head near the ground) on the mill too much

It's too hard to tell which one is the one for you. I assume that your're leaning over too much. When you stab, you should be tilting over to your head a little, giving you that space you need to swipe through the ground.

Try working from the ground up. If you hit the ground, then it's too low. If you can't feel the momentum when you're kicking your legs, then you're most likely too high.

Thanks, I think it's because I lean to much. I'll try and work from the ground up, I really appreciate it ExZeLiuR.

When I get mills I'll post a celebratory post. Unless of course that's considered spam...
