Back-chaining guarantees pitching success!

Back-chain your way to pitching excellence.

Back-chaining is looking at a chain reaction in reverse. 

Back-chaining is a very simple, very precise and extremely effective way to achieve your pitching dreams. You start with a desired outcome (in pitching, this boils down to location), then move backwards to determine the actions that’ll get you where you want to go.

1. Back-chaining is looking at a chain reaction in reverse.You start with a desired outcome (in pitching, this boils down to location), then move backwards to determine the actions that’ll get you where you want to go.
2. How do you create location?You stop your throwing hand from coming through different release windows.
3. How do you get your throwing hand to come through the same release window?
   You stop using your throwing arm to offset your stride.
4. How do you free your throwing arm from offsetting your stride?You stop striding.
5. How do you stop from striding?You rotate out of your front leg lift. (As your body rotates down the mound, your body’s “fight or flight” mechanism instinctively uses your stride to protect you from falling on your nose. Also, not coincidentally, your stride length and direction become non-issues.)
6. How do you rotate out of your front leg lift?You end your front leg lift with your weight centered on a spot just in front of your back foot.
7. How do you center your weight just in front of your back foot?Before your front foot comes off the ground, you plant your feet under your hips, center your hands and flex your knees.

 Back-chaining systematically eliminates any reason for you to miss your intended target.

Back-chaining supercharges your learning curve.

After back-chaining, your pitching chain is guaranteed to produce the results you expect, you want, and you need to succeed in a sport built around failure.

1. Your footwork creates your front leg lift.
2. Your front leg lift makes rotation possible.
3. Your rotation turns your current throwing action into a sustainable, location-producing reaction.
4. Your throwing (re)action locates your pitches, produces very late ball movement and challenges the best hitters to make solid contact with any pitch you throw.

 Back-chaining simply and efficiently produces the very precise and thoroughly effective results you need to succeed at the highest levels.
