It’s the starting point that dictates how the rest of the kinetic chain functions.
Wide Stance
An incorrect stance leads to a less powerful, less consistent, and potentially more injury-prone throwing motion.
The sequence of power generation is disrupted. The hips and core don’t fully engage and lead the arm.
The arm and hand become isolated because the lower body isn’t driving the motion. The release point becomes inconsistent without the stable base and rotational force, leading to poor command and unpredictable results.
Balanced Stance
A more balanced stance allows for proper weight transfer and sets the stage for effective rotation.
The glove arm turns the hips, highlighting the kinetic chain’s essential sequence.
Your glove arm emphasizes that the legs and core are the primary source of power and direction in an efficient throw.
When the lower body leads the motion, the arm and hand follow more flexibly, leading to better accuracy.
Pitch Smart
Engaging the lower body through proper footwork is key to achieving better velocity, command, and overall pitching performance.
