Two Plane Swing: Stand more upright at address. Your arms have to feel alive, as they pick the club up on the backswing, and keep the club in front of the body as much as possible.

Spine
One Plane Swing: The spine should be pretty straight. The 1PS is a wide swing, and spine tilt adds un-necessary width.
Two Plane Swing: The spine should be tilted. This helps to keep the body behind the ball, and adds width to the swing.
Doesn't what you say about the spine contradict what you say above? If, in the One Plane Swing, you bend over more, then your spine must be more tilted--unless you know a way to bend over without tilting your spine!
