This would seem to be related to thoughts on how to keep your head from bobbing and to keep your shoulders from moving up. Work on all of these together.

Your backswing hip and shoulder turn should be flat, it keeps all backswing motions level. If you raise your right hip and/or knee you raise your right side straightening the right knee.
