    How to increase speed?

    Imo, there are so many factors in speed, it’s hard to pinpoint it. Separation of the chest and hips is probably #1 in my book. We know approximately 90% give or take of your speed comes directly from arm whip. Arm whip must haves imo are loose bent arm, upper arm stabilization and forearm...

    Strength and Conditioning for Pitchers

    When it comes to things they can do every time they pitch, which can make a big impact imo. I have all my pitchers do spine opening stretches, the velo lab band routine plus the 5x5 Ken posted, glute activations with bands and kettlebell swings before they pitch. Post throwing routine is...

    The backswing..

    I like a backswing for the things mentioned above as well as overlap. I like to see both arms come back no farther than 8ish unless they’re super flexible and can get them both back without it pulling them open. That’s the biggest issue with a big backswing with the ball arm only in my opinion...

    Need some advice/drills on correcting some mechanical flaws

    A video may help to see exactly what she’s doing but my guess is she’s driving more up than out, that usually pulls the back foot up. I’d talk to her about driving more out than up and have her try to drive her hips past her shoulders which should help with the lean. When one of my athletes...

    Arm circle problems

    I totally agree with James. I’ve also discovered that driving out not open can be remedied a lot by getting proper lean to initiate the drive. Getting proper lean limits the amount of getting open that can be done. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Arm circle problems

    I’m with James and Rosey, the drive mechanics is the place to start. I’d like to know, #1 Did she have the same mechanics other than the bent arm circle before going to college? #2 Has her college coach or anybody for that matter put an emphasis on driving out farther? #3 Has she she always...

    Pocket Radar Battery Life

    I have the new one with usb charging port and speed embedded in the video clip, it also calls out loud the speed on your phone. Great setup and tool, definitely worth the money. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Back at it, feedback appreciated!

    I agree with James, it seems to me like that lack of drive is causing serious timing issues and no overlap at all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Queen of the Hill

    I’m no expert and probably not considered a trusted PC here as well but I can share that the QOTH has helped 90% of my girls (I have a little over 20). It’s an every lesson tool for us, the way I have it dropped into the mat, it’s much more “game like” and not a distraction at all. The biggest...

    Regression anybody? Please help

    Not to be a wise guy but this could be the issue. Take a small break if you can. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
