what"takes back and forth "mean?
It takes [the back and forth] out.
When you take something out, you remove it, for better or worse..
- This product takes some of the drudgery out of housework.
- This change takes the all the fun out of the event.

I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
