If you can’t stabilize, that’s our biggest liability

Proper big toe dorsiflexion is vital for movement efficiency. There is a glute and big toe connection when it comes to proper gait and in turn dynamic athletic movement

Factoring in natural personal motor preferences are vital to each athlete with the “standards” we know we need to incorporate.

Eccentric & isometric feel for back internal hip rotation for hitting. Create the tornado 💥💫

Overload the cognitive/visual system provides enhanced vestibular ocular reflex (VOR) as well as decision making habits.

The VOR has a critical role of keeping the eyes still during head and body motion. also sends a signal down to the postural muscles of the trunk/arms/legs, which is crucial for maintaining balance and optimal visual acuity

Simple, low-load exercise produces profound muscle “burn” comparable to intense anaerobic training.

This strong fatigue triggers a natural, robust, hormonal cascade, which in turn produces hypertrophy and strength gains on par with heavy exercise or traditional weight lifting.

The hormones circulating in the blood stream benefit all areas of the body that were working, not just the restricted limb(s) creating a “Systemic Response.”

Starts and ends in your 🦶🏻🏀 Fix your ankle/feet engagement with the ground and many times movement patterns will self organize. This exercise also includes
these 3 aspects…

1)the three sensory systems involved in modulating postural control: visual system, vestibular, somatic sensory system.
2)Vestibular: provides the brain info based on motion, body position and spatial awareness.
3)VOR: vestibular ocular reflex thru eye movement as it stabilizes gaze thru counter movement of the head.

Breaking down GRF in the swing. Use objective data vs subjective this gives us a deeper look into the movement profile .

Accommodation how well you can see an object as it moves closer and further from you. Tracking abilities are vital.

The front leg lead block a.k.a. braking system, helps propel the energy from the backside(unloading of pelvis) but also affects the torso and in turn linear acceleration efficiently

Hip flexors: iliacus, psoas major and the rectus femoris. Exxentric

Having too much side bend at contact creates havoc not only a visual system but also can create issues with barrel path integrity & proper posterior tilt of the pelvis to transition kinetic energy from the pelvis to the torso

Big toe is a major impact on how well we move.

(vestibule ocular reflex ) has a big impact at how well a hitter can visually process during a dynamic movement. How still the eyes can be when the head and body is in motion.

Velocity base training allows the coach to see objective data on the intensity of a given movement. 3 metrics: peak velocity/mean power/ mean propulsive velocity. Know Your numbers

Arm care circuit.

Guys that don’t transfer the energy toward the front side efficiently this drill does the magic for me. To leverage the energy we give the coaching cue to engage the posterior chain of the front foot (heel).
