Tatonka,

You have probably seen this one before, maybe even several times like myself, but I watched it again over the weekend and took something different away. Rick has talked about Hip Torque/Snap in other videos and here he talks about the adduction that leads to the rotation (hip torque/snap/etc.) which also sets up the hip for the brush.



Again, you may have already looked at this but as I did for probably the 100th time, the laces, heal up, knee to knee adduction jumped out more to me than the previous 99 times. I am convinced I spend as much if not more time than most learning all I can about pitching yet I am probably the slowest learner of them all......

Hope it helps!

This lesson was aimed to correct the butt out posture. The way D was twisting to get open and 90 degrees, she would never got brush contact....and as mentioned, D was crow hopping. This will help girls that didn’t allow a natural rotation but was performing a taught movement. Each girl may have something different to be addressed.
