The Role of Level Shoulders
Maintaining level shoulders at the peak of your front leg lift
allows your throwing hand to follow the path guided by your glove hand and ensures
smoother and more controlled movement of the throwing hand.
When your throwing hand follows a well-defined path due to
level shoulders, you gain greater "command" over the throw which translates
to better control and placement of the ball.
Impact of Uneven Shoulders
If your shoulders are not level at your front leg lift, your
body compensates for the tilt and often manifests as adjustments in your
throwing arm.
The adjustments made by your throwing arm to compensate for
uneven shoulders disrupt its natural throwing motion and significantly impacts
on the consistency and accuracy of your throws.
Benefits of Level Shoulders
Maintaining level shoulders allows for a consistent and
well-defined path for your throwing hand to follow which is guided by your
glove work and leads to throws that consistently hit your target area with
"uncanny regularity."
Overall takeaway
By ensuring your shoulders are level at the peak of your front
leg lift, you empower your glove hand to guide your throwing hand, leading to
throws that consistently hit your target.
