I think trailing arm pressure is a better term than back arm, as there seems to be two trains of thought on what is the back arm.

totally agree. ive had coaches tell me 'more pressure on the back arm'. some mean left, some mean right... leading arm pressure has never sat well with me in theory. no idea why you would want to do it these days. waaay to old school for my liking.
