A pitcher's starting position influences their proprioceptive awareness and the subsequent sequencing of their kinetic chain.
Proprioception and Starting Position
When the front leg is behind the hip, the leg is
forced to initiate movement, suggesting a lack of proactive proprioceptive
control.
The hand is trying to compensate for the body being out of
sync, rather than being an integral part of a coordinated movement initiated
from a balanced base.
Your Kinetic Chain and Starting Position
A balanced starting position (front leg even with the front
hip) allows for a more efficient transfer of energy.
The glove hand then engages the core and lower body in a
more synchronized way, leading to a more powerful and controlled throw.
Its movement helps to create the forward motion in a
controlled way, allowing the throwing hand to follow through with consistent
speed and release.
The glove hand's action, when timed correctly, helps to
orchestrate the entire body's movement.
Pitch Smart
A balanced starting point allows for a more natural and
coordinated movement, initiated by the glove hand, leading to better balance,
command, and consistent pitch delivery.
We're so confident in our instructions that, if we can't
help you get the ball to your target regularly, your instruction is free, no
questions asked.
