Overnight Command


When you know how to let gravity drive each pitch into your intended target, you confidently challenge mature hitters to make solid contact with each and every pitch your throw.

How you manage gravity shapes your results

Have you ever considered that your body is an interconnected system where your mind reads gravity’s impact on your body and knows to pick a movement combination that’ll get your body back in balance in the quickest and most efficient way?

Now consider this … gravity uses your foot placements to determine your body position at the top of your front leg lift, then gravity uses your front leg lift position to decide which one of hundreds of thousands of movement sequences it needs to get your body back in balance.

Hundreds of thousands of foot placements cause gravity to end your front leg lift with your weight over your back foot, but there is ONE AND ONLY ONE foot placement variation that ends your front leg lift with your weight centered between your knees.


That’s where the Pro Pitching Institute adds value.


Best case scenario.
When you end your front leg lift with your weight centered between your knees and then literally try to throw the ball through your receiver’s target, you guarantee gravity uses your throwing arm action to get your body back in balance.

By plan, gravity brings your throwing hand through the same tiny release window on every pitch you throw.

When you know how to let gravity drive each pitch into your intended target, you confidently cancel out patience as a hitter’s tool and find yourself challenging even the most mature hitters to make solid contact with each and every pitch you throw.

What typically happens.
By ending your front leg lift with your weight over your back foot, every gravity-driven movement pattern ends in a “power position” (feet on the ground and your weight centered between your feet).

Since your “power position” represents a balanced posture, your throwing arm is free to move anyway you want. Therefore, you’re able to use your last pitch results to determine your next pitch arm slot.

Since the arm slot you want will always conflict with the way gravity reads your “power position” body alignment, your ball rarely ends up where you want.

When your pitching plan revolves around your last pitch results determining your next pitch arm slot, you can only hope to be competitive against extra patient and more mature hitters.


The Pro Pitching Institute Teaches Command

You can spend years trying to discover the footwork that’ll end your front leg lift with your weight centered between your knees or you can use the ProPitchingInstitute.com “Building Blocks” to make this happen literally overnight.

Are you “command ready”?


When you go directly from the top of your front leg lift into your throwing action, there’s an extremely high likelihood your throwing hand moves through the same release window on every pitch.

When you’re “command ready”, you end your starting position ready to bring your throwing hand through the same tiny release window on every pitch.

There are only 3 Starting Positions

You begin your movement toward the plate from one of 3 body positions.
- You end your front leg lift with your front knee behind your front hip.
- You can hold your front leg lift with your front knee well in front of your back.
- From the stretch, you end your pitch preparation with your feet wider than your hips.

Hand Separations Test Each Starting Position

To test each starting position, get into the position and separate your hands.
Nothing happens when …
- You end your front leg lift with your front knee behind your front hip.
- From the stretch, you end your pitch preparation with your feet wider than your hips.
But your body makes a throwing action when ...
- You can hold your front leg lift with your front knee to the home plate side of your back.

Hand Separation Reactions Predict Command

Since your body is an interconnected system that moves as one and only reacts to itself …
When “nothing happens” …
- Your body needs to prepare for ball release. In this instance, there’s a huge chance your preparation changes your release window from one pitch to the next.
When you go directly into a throwing action …
- There’s an extremely high likelihood your throwing hand moves through the same release window on every pitch.

The Pro Pitching Institute Makes You “Command Ready”

The Pro Pitching Institute presents the 6 “Building Blocks” that’ll allow your hand separation to automatically bring your throwing hand through the same release window on every pitch. Out of the Starting Position the Pro Pitching Institute creates, no matter the pitch called, you can expect the ball to travel directly into your intended target with very late movement and a deceptive arm action.

Mindful Command!


The instant your foot plant interrupts your lower body rotation, your mind instantly self-corrects your imbalance by whipping your throwing arm forward and across your body and your throwing hand through the same tiny release window on every pitch.

The way your body works …
  • Your mind is hardwired to keep your centered between your feet.
  • The instant your mind senses any weight shift, your mind tells your body how it must move to get your weight back to center.
  • Actions only occurs after your mind believes your weight is centered between your feet.

Productively Sustainable Release Windows

When, at the top of your front leg lift, you fool your mind into thinking your weight is centered between your feet (a combination of Pro Pitching Institute “Building Blocks” 1-5), you’re able to come out of your front leg lift throwing the ball through your target (Pro Pitching Institute “Building Blocks” 6).

The act of throwing the ball through your target causes your body to rotate down the mound.

When you rotate, because your weight is no longer centered between your feet. Your mind demands you get your front foot back on the ground.

The instant your foot plant interrupts your lower body rotation, your mind instantly self-corrects your imbalance by whipping your throwing arm forward and across your body and your throwing hand through the same tiny release window on every pitch.

Your Unpredictable Release Window

Your front leg lift forces you to shift your weight from the rubber toward the plate.

As your body moves from back-to-front, your mind use your throwing arm to slow your movement down the mound.

Once your front foot gets back on the mound, your legs center your weight between your feet.

As far as your mind is concerned, it's done its job. With your weight is centered between your feet, your next action is to complete your delivery.

Because you placed your body in a position where your throwing action is unrelated to any other action, your release window changes from one pitch to the next.

How can you expect your next pitch to go where you expect?

The Pro Pitching Institute freely supplies you with the 6 “Building Blocks” proven to whip your throwing hand through a consistently tiny release window on every pitch.

Physical Laws Govern Command!

By properly managing the gravitational forces impacting your movements, it’s very possible to teach you how to get your hip rotation to whip your throwing hand through the same tiny release window on every pitch.

Swinging Weight Scenario 
What happens when you swing a weight on a string? Put a weight on the end of string, hold the string in your hands and move your hand in a circle. 
The weight makes a circular movement around your hand that’s determined by your hand angle. When you goal is to bring the weight through the same spot on every swing, your challenge becomes finding and maintaining the correct hand angle. 

Bull Whip Scenario 
What happens when you crack of bull whip? You grip the bull whip handle, snap your hand down and up and your hand movement travels down the whip to create a loud snap. 
When your hand snap is at the same angle, the bull whip crack occurs in the same spot. 

Producing Command 
Getting your hand to snap the bull whip handle at the same angle is much easier than maintaining the same hand angle as you swing a weight on a string around your hand. 
  • Bull Whip Scenario - By properly managing the gravitational forces impacting your movements, it’s very possible to teach you how to get your hip rotation to whip your throwing hand through the same tiny release window on every pitch. 
  • Swinging Weight Scenario - When you dismiss or ignore these gravitational forces, your arms rotate around your head and, consequently, your release window varies from one pitch to the next.  
Conclusively, whipping your throwing hand through the same release window on every pitch is a teachable skill. 

How do you manage gravity? 
The Pro Pitching Institute teaches you how to take advantage of nature’s gravitational forces. No matter where you live, we skillfully use free Internet tools to teach you how to whip your throwing hand through a consistently tiny release window on every pitch.
