Back Knee Down
Purpose: To develop upper-body strength and quickness. The drill helps the player stop lunging by eliminating lower-body movement. It emphasizes keeping the barrel above the hands and using correct timing
Procedure: Use a low T for this drill. The hitter kneels on a towel with the back knee at a 90-degree angle, keeping the shoulders on a level plane. The drill can also be done off a soft toss
Congrats on Gus and Mitchell Adams on their representative selections. WELL DONE guys!!!
