Need help/in game cut

[FiveFrameSwing]

What I see in this girl's swing is more of a muscled resistance to what we see here.

Our student is not the argument.

Subscribing to what Stone is endorsing is NOT the teach. Is this what you are selling?

I wasn't here to argue. I was here to help the young lady.

While I do not adhere completely to what Stone promotes, having this girl move in that direction would move her in the right direction.

The girl currently resists this action ... hence the posting of the video ... to suggest that she reduce this heavy resistance.

Incidentally, in the clip of Cabrera (not 'Caberra') that you showed, you omit the earlier sequence in which he effectively "walked away from the hands" ... in that swing he "prepared to throw" during his 'move out'. Sure, it was an inside pitch ... but the basic early sequence was intact.

Thanks again for everyone's insight. We did some hitting last night and emphasized "walking away from her hands". I will post the video later this afternoon. Her swing did seem to generate more power and seemed smoother. Hopefully, she is making some progress.

My 12 yo DD is going through the same process. Trying to get more separation from top and bottom half. Trying to understand the 'walking away from the hands'. When it's done correctly the increase in torque and power is amazing. We notice that from front toss and even off the tee. Perfecting it vs. live pitching is requiring a whole new mindset for my DD as far as timing and will always be a work in progress. Which is great. They need to always try and get better.

Pay attention to the hands/hand usage and when they move and HOW they move.

Vino, someone has been busy. That's a pretty big change in a short amount of time. Please describe how you introduced this concept to your DD.

Tempo is a bit of an issue. You want to start the sequence early enough, and slow enough, such that there is no 'rush' feel in the 'walking of away from the hands' portion of the swing.

Thanks five frame. She looked at the videos and screen shots that were posted and that helped tremendously. She is a very quick learner and very driven. She understands, as do I, that this is a process and she needs to develop muscle memory. Hopefully this will translate in games. I will have her work on the pace of the sequence. Thanks again.

Was your DD instructed/taught 'knob to the ball'?

"Fighting to keep the barrel up" would be part of My "knob to ball" connection/direction, Like this duck player asked by coach White to step out of the cage and work on "something".

The young lady in Red, Looks like she was reaching for an outside pitch, with direction, she would not have turned forward as much


I see a flat level swing.
