Does Your Initial Back-Knee Position Impact Your Results?

Pro Pitching Institute
When do your pitching results suffer?
When you begin your delivery with your back knee to the home plate side of your back foot, as your front foot comes off the ground, you end your backward hip shift with all your weight over your back foot and your core tilted from front to back.

From the top of your front leg lift, you can’t complete your delivery without shifting your weight toward your target, landing your front foot back on the ground and waiting for your core to get back to an upright position.

By the time all this happens, you’re only option is to throw the ball toward your target, hope your pitch ends up where you want and use your last pitch result to dictate your next pitch arm slot.

When do you experience superior pitching results?

When you begin your delivery with your back knee over your back-foot’s toes, as your front foot comes off the ground, your hips remain level, your core upright and, most importantly, your arms remain free to move anyway you want.

From the top of your front leg lift, you use your glove arm to pivot your glove side back.  As a spontaneous reaction, your back hip comes forward, all your energy travels from your lower body and up your already vertical core forcing your throwing action to become a very productive, involuntary reflex.

When you use your body the way it’s meant to work, you use little physical effort to produce sustainably excellent results.

Should you agonize over regularly getting your back-knee to begin behind your back foot, contact me for a remarkably simple solution.
