Put Your Pitch Location on Automatic

 

Pro Pitching Institute is one of the top 100 baseball blogs on the Internet.

Few Pitchers regularly send their pitches directly to their intended target, but, when you learn how to locate your pitches, you instantly become a must-have to next-level Teams.

Pitch location just happens. In fact, the amount of effort you put into locating your pitches determines the size of your target area.

Tilted Hips Kill your Pitch Location

End your front leg lift with your hips tilted, and you put a lot of effort into your pitch location.

Ironically, putting a lot of effort into ending your front leg lift with your hips level makes it very likely you end your front leg lift with a hip tilt???

Level Hips Make Your Pitch Location Just Happen

End your front leg lift with your hips level, and your pitch location turns into something that happens and not something you do.

When you learn to manage your movements into your front leg lift, you end your front leg lift with your hips level and, without thinking about it, you can expect your pitches to travel directly into your target.

Pitch Location is Extremely Simple

 

Pro Pitching Institute is one of the top 100 baseball blogs on the Internet.

The more body parts involved in your throwing action, the more your pitches to travel directly into your intended target.

An Upper Body Only Delivery

An upper body-driven motion hurts your pitch location and here’s why?

You end your front leg lift with your weight over your back foot, use your throwing arm to offset your forward weight shift, and, once you end your stride, rotate your upper body around your head.

With your upper body completing your delivery, you “hope” your pitch travels directly into your target.

A Full Body Delivery

When your entire body drives your throwing action, your pitches travel directly into your target.

Because you end your front leg lift with your weight centered between your knees, you end your stride with your hips and shoulders at opposing angles, and, to relieve the tension, use your entire body to send your pitches directly into your target.

Pitch location becomes amazingly simple. A focus on your front leg lift delivers your pitches directly into your target.

What Exactly Is an Effective Bullpen?

 

Pro Pitching Institute is one of the top 100 baseball blogs on the Internet.

The object of any bullpen is to walk away with one physically repeated action that’ll get more pitches to travel directly into your intended target than before your session began.

Keep repeating the action that came out of your bullpen, your actions become a habit, and, forever on, you can count on more pitches to travel directly into your target.

The most effective bullpen take-aways

Obviously, you decide how you want to move, but did you ever realize, your conscious actions can only occur when your body comes out of a point of balance.

Once your body moves out of any balanced position, your subconscious goes to work to get your body back to balance. While your body is getting itself back to balance, you lose conscious control of your movements.

Therefore, the way your body is known to work, when the actions that come out of your bullpen revolve around your foot placements or out of your front leg lift, your bullpen is much more likely to have a permanent and positive impact on your future fastball location.

What Does Using Your Lower Body Mean?

 

Pro Pitching Institute is one of the top 100 baseball blogs on the Internet.Play with a rubber band powered, balsa wood toy airplane, and the plane’s rubber band mirrors the twisting force you want to create by ending your stride with your hips and shoulders at opposing angles.

Like the rubber band powers the plane’s propeller, the lower body torque you generate forces the spontaneous whip that sends your fastballs into your target.

One Condition Leads to Lower Body Engagement

To engage your lower body, you must end your front leg lift with your mind thinking you have both feet on the ground.

This lets your upper body activate your hips, ends your stride with your hips and shoulders at opposing angles and creates the torque needed to send your pitches directly into your target.

Miss This Condition and You Hurt Your Location

End your front leg lift with your weight over your back foot, you lock your upper body in place and block your lower body activity.

Without your lower body, you can’t know with any certainty where any one pitch will end up.

Coach Skip Teaches Lower Body Engagement

Coach Skip uses a simple front leg lift maneuver that’ll automatically trigger your lower body to send your fastballs directly into your target.

Want your lower body to drive your results? Set up a short phone call with Coach Skip.
