Loading Vertically

[_MIA_]

Loading/unloading vertically "down to"

Not sure that needs to be taught if everything is done correctly up to that point..at least the unload vertically part. Get into a good position to swing from and when the brain tells you to go, you go. I could be wrong..

I get the posture is vertical here with Aaron and he seems to be using his glutes in the move-out as demoed in the golf video (rear posting-up like in basketball) you uploaded. Due to the pitch location being up in the zone, he can maintain that position and has very little shoulder tilt.

Do you agree that in the video I posted that Griffey goes from extension to flexion to extension in his lower section?

i see neutral to flexion to extension

I was talking about everything that leads up to the FYB with good posture position....

there is a load of the glutes before the core I guess. But the load of the ‘swing’ is done during the F move.

How do you differentiate between load and gather?

gather is the glute load and Load is the core loading to actually swing the bat.

exactly!! You don’t need to be taught how to unload. Unlike some gurus teach. The only thing you would probably need to teach would be ..... DOWN TO w the hands towards the plate universally..Ha, you had to know that was coming!

I like how the small knee lift happens as he coils. His coil is pre set, his shoulders/hip angles are set and then he finished off the stretch.

Let’s keep this clean, lol,

F = forward move. I was just lazy. Ha.

That’s a beautiful swing. Simple.

. DOWN TO w the hands towards the plate universally..

Most kids do this already..but often from the wrong position...If you think that is all the hands need to do then fix everything else before that and you are set...
