🥎💜💛 POWER STARTS FROM THE GROUND UP!
One of the biggest things we’ve been focusing on is teaching our pitchers how to properly USE THEIR LOWER HALF to generate maximum power and velocity! 💪🔥
Velocity isn’t just about how fast you can move your arm. It’s about how efficiently your body creates, transfers, and releases energy throughout the pitching motion.
⚡ GROUND FORCE: Learning how to load into the drive leg and explosively push off the rubber.
⚡ HIP DRIVE & EXTENSION: Using the glutes, quads, and hips to generate power rather than relying on the arm.
⚡ SEQUENCING: Learning how to transfer that lower-body power through the hips, core, and ultimately into the arm whip.
⚡ STABILITY & CONTROL: Creating a strong, stable front side that allows pitchers to efficiently transfer energy into the ball.
🎥 In this video, you’ll see some of the drills we’re using to assist pitchers in understanding how to fully drive thru their toes and to get proper hip extension into the stride.
The goal isn’t just to get our pitchers throwing harder. It’s to teach them HOW to create velocity efficiently, consistently, and with proper mechanics.
🔥 Stop trying to throw harder with your arm. Start learning how to generate more power from the ground!
