Abstract: The $log3$ Theorem, proved by Culler and Shalen, states that every point in the hyperbolic 3-space is moved a distance at least $log3$ by one of the non-commuting isometries $xi$ or $eta$ provided that $xi$ and $eta$ generate a torsion-free, discrete group which is not co-compact and contains no parabolic. This theorem lies in the foundation of many techniques that provide lower estimates for the volumes of orientable, closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds whose fundamental group has no 2-generator subgroup of finite index and, as a consequence, gives insights into the topological properties of these manifolds. In this paper, we show that every point in the hyperbolic 3-space is moved a distance at least $(1/2)log(5+3sqrt2)$ by one of the isometries in $xi,eta,xieta$ when $xi$ and $eta$ satisfy the conditions given in the $log3$ Theorem.
