Increasing your Windmill speed

Congrats on getting the Windmill down! It ain't easy. I believe I can help you with your speed. First, if you are using your hands, just push, if not, it is all in the shoulders. It also helps to practice with no shoes on. The power of the windmill comes from your shoulders/hands. Just keep the legs straight and let them swing.

The easiest way to understand the physics of the Windmill is by doing a little experiment. Take a necklace with one charm on it. Try swinging it on your finger. Once you get it moving you should be able to continue the spin and increase the speed by the slightest movement of your finger. Windmills work exactly this way. You should be able to apply a touch more speed each rotation with your hands and/or shoulders until you are soaring. Also the intitial kick can help greatly. I hope this helps, keep it up, you will get it moving faster.Good Luck. Peace.
