Overlapping action in hands

I have my character's arms in regular draggable mode (not IK). When dragging them around, I get the overlapping action, or the "dragging behind" in the hands, as seen in the gif below. Is there a way I can edit the drag amount? It is too much for my taste currently. I noticed that switching to IK eliminates the drag completely, but for this character I'd really rather not have it set as IK. Thanks!
