Pitchers: “Standout location” tips the scale in your favor!

“Standout location” solidifies your pitching future.

Pitchers with “standout location” become the total pitching package.

• You’ll know how to deliver each pitch directly into your Catcher’s intended target.
• When you miss your target, you’ll put so much late movement on your ball that your opponent still struggles to make solid contact with the ball.
• When you completely and totally miss your target, you’ll know how to get your next pitch to go where you expect.
•  No matter the pitch called, your fastball arm speed will keep your opponent guessing about pitch movement and speed.
• Every time you take the mound, your Team will know you’re capable of keeping them close enough to win.

When you show “standout location”, you become the Pitcher everyone expects and, in the process, you become the envy of every Pitcher who can’t do what you do.

Between your efficient-looking motion and your sustainably excellent results, you shout to MLB Teams that you’re a Pitcher ready to pitch 100+ MLB innings.

It’s never too early to develop “standout location”.

The earlier you discover “standout location”, the easier it’ll become to transition into High School, then College and, perhaps, beyond?

Don’t let your stats lull you into thinking you’re better than you are.

Without “standout location”, untrained, impatient hitters help you compensate for your inability to locate your pitches. They miss pitches they shouldn’t. They swing at pitches they can’t drive. They get behind in counts where they shouldn’t.

Since measuring your ability to locate your pitches would bum you out, you happily let hitters pad your stats, then you use their stats to give you the warm-and-buzzy feeling that you’re better than you really are.

MLB Teams need Pitchers with “standout location”.

MLB Organizations don’t know how to and don’t have to teach location. If they did, there would be a surplus of quality pitching!

Instead, MLB Teams rely on numbers to compensate for their inability to teach location. They continually sift through the available Pitchers, pick the one with the best location and wait to see the results. When the Pitcher they picked doesn’t work out, they fill the slot with another Pitcher. This cycle continues and, when they eventually find a Pitcher who displays “standout location”. the Pitcher is there for 100+ MLB innings.

Eventually location determines your future.

Against MLB hitters who get paid to drive your mistakes, the advantages you had against lower level hitters totally disappear.

It’s at this point that “standout location” becomes the gateway to your pitching future.

There’s only one place to learn “standout location”!

By association, any past or present MLB Pitcher or Coach has done and is doing some extraordinary things, but, when you see the lack of pitch location within the current pitching population, it’s obvious they don’t know how to teach “standout location”. Therefore, to learn “standout location”, you must go outside baseball.

To this end, I’ve quietly spent 25+ years outside the baseball community figuring out how to teach “standout location”. I’ve gone unnoticed as I supplemented MLB Coaches’ directions and  helped their Pitchers use their location to log hundreds of MLB innings.

If you want “standout location”, I’m here for you too!

Your center of gravity centers your location.

Maintain your center of gravity

When you place your center of gravity just in front of your back-foot, you force your body to spontaneously bring your throwing hand through the same spot on every pitch.

Getting your body to revolve around your center of gravity forces each pitch to travel directly into your intended target. Consequently, your pitching stands out as markedly better than any pitchers competing for the same openings as you!

Lose your center of gravity

The instant your movements place your center of gravity over your back foot, you force a front-to-back or back-to-front weight shift, you use your throwing arm to stabilize your center of gravity and, consequently, you never really know with any confidence where any one pitch will end up.

By placing your center of gravity over your back foot, you place your motion in a state of chaos, your release window changes from one pitch to the next and the Pitchers who end with their center of gravity in front of their back-foot outperform you.

Stop wasting your time

Learning to manage your center of gravity can happen in 5 minutes. Gaining the confidence associated with proper center of gravity management is what takes the most time.

You can use trial-and-error to learn proper center of gravity management or you can spend 5-minutes with me, get your body to rotate around your center of gravity and become the stand out Pitcher you always dreamed you’d be?

Where is your pitching career headed?

Over 20 years of seeing the various paths pitching careers can possibly take, right now, this instant, your pitching career is at a crossroads. The way people remember your baseball career will reflect on the decision you make today!

Ask yourself this simple question. “How does my pitching stand out from everyone else?”

How to Produce the Best Pitching Results Ever?

What does a naturally productive throwing action look like?

A naturally automatic throwing action looks like this!

Should I ask you to make an imaginary throwing action, your entire body simply, naturally and automatically pulls your throwing hand into your make-believe release.

Miraculously, every time you make this throwing action, your throwing hand moves through the same spot.

That’s exactly what you want out of your pitching motion ... entirely natural, totally spontaneous and extremely repeatable.

How your “functional” motion can quickly turn “dysfunctional”?

When you “try” to deliver each pitch directly into a target, your very “functional”, totally natural and extremely repeatable motion turns into a “dysfunctional” mess and here’s why?

Let’s say I move back a few yards, hold my hand up to give you a target and ask you to use your natural throwing action to deliver the ball directly into my hand.

You do everything you did before and (ugh!) you watch the ball miss your target???

When I give you a second chance to hit my target, you compensate for your inadequate arm slot by consciously changing your natural movement pattern.

How I keep your “functional” functional?

You, like everyone, possess a natural throwing action where, every time you make a throwing action, your entire body pulls your throwing hand through the same productive release point all the time.

To keep you delivering every pitch directly into your target, I teach you the field-tested movement patterns that’ll force your body to pull your throwing hand through the same tiny, yet extremely productive, release window.

How you think and what you see measures your results.

No matter what anyone tells you, you have a dysfunctional delivery when ...

• You miss your target and, to get your next pitch to go and do what you want, you change your arm slot.
• You can’t trust any one pitch to go and do what you want.
• You don’t regularly see consecutive strings of pitches traveling into your intended target.
• Your bullpen sessions are consumed with “trying” to fix stuff.

When you can honestly expect each pitch to go and do what you want, you can be assured your body is naturally and automatically driving your pitching results.

How you spend your pitching career is up to you?

You can either …

• Waste your pitching career “trying” to find the right movement patterns that’ll produce the results you know you need or
• Ask me to show you the movement patterns that are guaranteed to supercharge your pitching career!

If the second choice sounds best, let’s talk.

What makes us the best pitching instruction anywhere?

Balance, simplicity and location.

Balance is a natural occurrence.

Your body is driven to use your arms for balance. Therefore, the only time you can move your arms the way you want is when your weight is centered within your body.

Pitching is simple.
On the surface, you find a way to bring your throwing hand through the same productive spot on every pitch. Here’s where it gets complicated. Your throwing hand can only come through the same spot when you end your stride with the imbalance we help you create.

Finally, it’s all about location.
As a by-product of the location we teach, you can expect to keep every Hitter guessing about pitch speed and movement. Do this and the chances any Hitter drives any pitch becomes more and more unlikely.

You come to us throwing “darts” and leave throwing a “javelin”

A “dart thrower”.
A “dart thrower”, like any arm-only athletic event, uses just their throwing arm, forearm and wrist to send each dart toward their target.

In pitching, when you end your stride with your body in balance, your delivery mirrors that of a “dart thrower”. Your balance as you end your stride keeps your throwing arm free to deliver the ball toward your target.

What indicators tell you your motion resembles a “dart thrower”?

Your motion resembles an arm-only “dart thrower” when ...

• You land in a “power position”.
• You can’t end your stride with an open front shoulder without hurting your results.
• You miss your target by a lot on one pitch and can only “hope” your next pitch travels into your target.

A “javelin thrower”.
A “javelin thrower”, like any full-bodied athletic event, uses their entire body to generate their throwing action.

In pitching, your motion is like a “javelin thrower”, when you end your stride with a planned imbalance. It’s this imbalance that, to get back in balance, forces you to make a productive throwing (re)action.

No matter your age or skill level, in less than 5 minutes, we guarantee to turn your hit-or-miss throwing action into a sustainably productive throwing (re)action where …

• You can expect each pitch to travel directly into your target.
• Should you miss your spot, you know how to deliver your next pitch directly into your Catcher’s target.
• You challenge the best hitters to make solid contact with any pitch you throw.

We guarantee exemplary results.

There’s 3-ways our Pitchers keep the best hitters more off-balance than any arm-only Throwers.

1. You always show the hitter a fastball arm speed.

No matter the pitch called, your full-body delivery shows the same arm speed on every pitch. By comparison, if you’re an arm-only Thrower, your arm speed varies from one pitch to the next. Lower level Hitters won’t pick this up, but as you climb the baseball ladder, changes in arm speed tip pitches.

2. Without fail, your pitches break as close to the plate as humanly possible.

No matter what, your ball is going to take the same path into your Catcher’s target, but the energy your full-bodied motion generates causes your ball to break much closer to the plate than when you complete your delivery with just your upper body..

3. On every pitch, your Catcher places his glove in an unhittable location and you expect the ball to travel directly into his target.

The “javelin thrower-like” throwing (re)action you generate makes it much more likely you’ll bring your throwing hand through the same tiny release window. Consequently, you deliver a greater percentage of your pitches directly into your Catcher’s target. However, with your throwing arm working by itself, you can’t know with any certainty where any one pitch will end up.

Your location tells all.

When you full-body delivery sends each pitch into your target, you maximize your throwing arm speed, your ball breaks closer to the plate than usual and you can be assured your fastball arm speed won’t tip your pitches.

What’s your plan, man?

You can’t succeed without a plan

When you have a goal, but fail to have a plan, you make random and arbitrary decisions where every choice has a consequence and every consequence sends your results in a different direction.

In pitching, when you completely miss your target and you don’t have a plan, you’re going to make an arbitrary adjustment to your next pitch arm slot.

Ever wonder why your results vary so much? The answer is simple … It’s because you make changes on the fly and you don’t think through the long-term consequences of what you’re doing!

Alert - You don’t have time to put together a plan!

Now, a bit of disturbing news!  Should you be starting your plan from scratch, it’ll take you upwards of 10 years to come up with a decision tree that’ll produce the results you need to challenge the best hitters!

You don’t have the time to make an arbitrary adjustment, track the results, make a second adjustment, compare the results, make a third adjustment, compare every result and continue this process until you get the results you’re looking for.

You don’t have the time you need to do the physiological, neurological and psychological research that’ll make your decisions less arbitrary and more focused?

Building a plan is so time-consuming and such a back-breaking process that, by the time you have a workable plan, your pitching career will be nearing its end.

Does the program you follow have a viable plan?

Always better … With a productive pitching plan, occasionally, a single pitch will miss your target by a lot, but, overall, every adjustment you make gets you closer and closer to the results you want to see.

Never worse … If, when you make an adjustment, sometimes of your results are better and sometimes they’re worst, your plan has holes in it and, at some point, it’ll destroy your pitching career.

Want an MLB field-tested plan?

If the answer to this question is “yes”, you can ask me to use the powerful relationships between your movements (causes) and your corresponding reactions (effects) to unlock the invisible pathways proven to keep your pitching career moving in the right direction.
