Upper Body Unit.
Regardless of tightly you hold the elbows
together, the muscles of the left shoulder/left arm must remain
in a taut condition at all times and the biceps of both arm must
be held against the chest cavity thus maintaining total control
of the upper body unit.
(This applies during the back swing and the down swing movements.)

It order to ensure that the left shoulder
muscles maintain total control of the upper body unit, at the address
position the muscles of the left shoulder and the left upper arm
must be held in a taut condition and the biceps of both arms held
firmly against the chest cavity, but importantly, these muscles
must be held in this condition throughout the complete golf swing.
Therefore as the compact upper body rotates
to the end of the back swing movement, you must focus on the left
shoulder/left arm to pushes the arms/golf club to the end of the
back swing movement and also help to lift the arms to the correct
back swing position.
It is absolutely vital that you focus
on the left shoulder/left arm as the controlling factor.
(In the case of the left handed player it is the right arm.)
During
the down swing movement, although the hip movement force the compact
upper body unit to rotate around the central core of the spine,
the left shoulder/left arm must eventually be used to pull the club
head into and through the contact area.
LOWER BODY
A similar rule applies to the lower part of the body.
During the down swing movement it is the left leg and the left thigh
that initiates the down swing movement and causes the hips to rotate
towards the target area.
