Bat drag

Her sequence is off some. Watch how long her back knee stays over her back foot. Notice how the back knee and the hands come forward together. This is mainly due to too much weight staying back during the forward move. Get her off her backside and the sequence should be better. Start a little taller and narrower to help her feel the forward move.

Back elbow is out racing the hands but I don’t see it as an issue right now. She doesn’t lose the barrel behind her or dump the barrel. She looks to have solid barrel control. I wouldn’t mess with that.

Should her belly button start by facing the plate? It seems more towards the catcher, which seems to me if you start there it would be difficult to see a thrown ball.

Previously she had too much weight going forward, in a lunging motion. Can't win. lol.

I would deal with the lunge for now for timing purposes. She will fix it in time. So many are scared of lunging. Staying back too long causes more problems imo. When her sequence is fixed she will fire legs/hips/core before the upper body. The lunge will be cured.

Wouldn’t worry about that. Some coil could be indicated by belly button facing the catcher. Just want to see her belly button advance forward with the back knee and front foot.

Which part? Coil or belly button advancing so that it basically stays centered between the legs...?

The back knee ERs in most cases, holding the ground during the forward move. Indication of trying to stay stable. How do you hit when your legs are not under you?

ask CB. The knee stays back. Cue the chipper video. It gets pulled after the bb advances. Not with it.

Lol....

She needs to get narrow. Tries to use both legs as both heels are down. Needs to get the rear side into the swing.
