Produce Million$ Pitching Results

“Trying” indicates you may not know as much as you think.

When you’re “trying”, you’re “testing”.

When you’re “testing”, your cutting an already too short pitching career even shorter.

You also risk failing to realize the upper limits of your pitching potential.

Think of your body as a clearinghouse.

Your movements send messages to your body. Your body interprets these messages and decides which arm slot your throwing arm moves through.

When you “try”, you’re attempting to figure out how to send your body the right messages in the right order.

However, when you know how to move, you give your body everything it needs to produce the Million$ Pitching results you’re desperately “trying” to find.

Stop “trying”, start producing Million$ Results

If you were in one of my programs, we’d use video chat or an in-person pitching motion to show me how you move.

In less than 10-minutes, without asking you to change your throwing action, I’ll show you how to immediately and consistently show every Opponent a Million$ fastball arm speed, have your pitches produce Million$ late stage ball movement and, at the same time, expect Million$ command.

Want Million$ results? Let’s talk!

The Key to Best-in-Class Pitching Results

When you swat a fly, you roll up a newspaper and “wham” the fly is history. This is your right brain reacting to the circumstance.

Once you had the newspaper in hand, your left-brain self-talk didn’t include your arm angle, your weight shift, how far you were going to step. You just swatted the fly!

The Best Pitchers Trust Their Right-Brain

During your pitching motion, the more your left-brain actions end your front leg lift with your weight centered between your knees, the more your right-brain throwing response sends your pitches into your target.

Change your right-brain responses as if they were controllable left-brain actions and you won’t see as many pitches travel into your target as you want and, in the end, might not realize your full potential.

The Fix is Simple

The art of producing best-in-class pitching results always follows the same progression.

- First, you understand how your left and right brains interact.
- Next, your left-brain actions send your right brain the appropriate messages.
- Finally, you trust your right-brain will send your pitches into your target.

A One Size Pitching Motion DOES Fit All

 

The facts show ...

1. Any single movement creates a ripple effect throughout your entire body.

2. The ONLY outside influence on your chain reactions is gravity.

3. By eliminating gravity from your motion and carefully managing your movements, your actions produce predictable responses with uncanny precision.

Armed with this information, there’s nothing stopping you from repeatedly sending your pitches directly into your intended target.

Your Sustainable ONE SIZE FITS ALL Model

Every efficient ONE SIZE FITS ALL motion contains these elements.

- You begin your motion with your weight balanced just to the home plate side of your back foot,

- Your front leg lift keeps your weight to the home plate side of your back foot.

- From there. your glove side will turn your upper body, your upper body will turn your hips, your hip action will force you to stride, even while you stride and through the end of your stride your back hip will continue to move forward, and, to get your body back in balance, your body will make a throwing action that’ll send your pitches directly into your target with uncanny precision.

Your ONE SIZE FITS ALL delivery guarantees your results become very automatic, extremely predictable, and surprisingly simple to execute.

Stop Searching and Start Doing

You can get your ONE SIZE FITS ALL motion at the Pro Pitching Institute.

The “Law of Self-Correction©” Guarantees Pitching Success

The “Law of Self-Correction^©”.

After 25+ years of working with Pitchers, an “ah-ha” moment produced one simply presented, all-inclusive statement that explains what happens in ALL pitching motions.

The “Law of Self-Correction^©”

“A Pitcher’s pitching results are dictated by the way his body self-corrects his weight distribution.”

After applying the “Law of Self-Correction^©” to thousands of pitching motions over many years, Pitchers can be guaranteed it’ll optimize their pitch location, enhance their throwing arm speed, and ace any statistical benchmark anyone wants to throw their way.

The “Law of Self-Correction^©” Has a Solid Scientific Foundation

You already know about “Self-Corrections”
Your “self-correction” reflex is at work every second of every day but is most noticeable when your arms seemingly take on a life of their own.

You typically lose control of your arms when you walk a balance beam, walk on slick ice, steer a bike over a mountain trail, step on a pebble with your bare foot, take a bad step, walk a tight rope, etc., but it especially happens when a Pitcher makes a throwing action.

What are the factors behind “self-corrections”?

Environmental and physiological factors combine to produce your “self-corrections”.

●     Gravity keeps your body anchored to the ground.

●     A carpenter level-like mechanism within your inner ear monitors gravity’s impact on your weight distribution.

●     When your inner ear senses a weight shift, to get your weight back in balance, your body “self-corrects”.

In terms of a Pitcher’s “self-corrections”, when a Pitcher dissect his delivery, a tremendously complex pitching motion becomes extremely easy to understand. Better yet, “self-corrections” give ALL Pitchers, both young and old, a very concise, yet easily executed, road map to their Big-League pitching success.

Why Do Elite Pitchers Outperform Everyone Else?

An example of beginning your stride THEN separating your hands.

There are two categories of Pitchers in the World.

There are ...

1. The Elite Big-League Pitcher who can expect their pitches to travel directly into their target.

2. Everyone else.

What do Elite Pitchers do that others don’t?

Watch any elite Big-League Pitcher and you see a Pitcher who begins their hand separation at the same time they begin their stride.

Why does this happen? When your hand separation occurs at the same time you stride, you allow your lower body to produce the Big-League fastball command needed to challenge Big-League Hitters to reach base.

What does Everyone Else do?

Watch any Pitcher who begins their stride then separates their hands and you’re watching a Pitcher who can’t establish their fastball.

Why does this happen? When you stride out of your front leg lift, you naturally use your throwing arm to offset your forward weight shift. When you see your hands separating after you begin your stride, you know you’re using your throwing arm for balance, you’re forcing your throwing arm to always catch up with your body and, consequently you can’t know with any certainty where any one pitch will end up.

Become an Elite Pitcher.

We teach Pitchers how to separate their hands at the same time they stride. As a result, they can expect to deliver their pitches directly into their target and, consequently, keep their Team close enough to win each game they pitch.

It’s never too early to discover pitch location

How good a Pitcher are you?

Pitchers don’t need pitch location to produce good stats. This is because developing Hitters ...

• Allow the pitch count to swing to the Pitcher’s advantage.
• Swing at pitches they shouldn’t.
• Are learning to adjust their approach at the plate, pull inside pitches and know when to check their swings.

Big-League Hitters are done developing. The only way to get them out is to place your pitches in a spot where they can’t drive the ball.

It’s never too early to develop a Big-League pitch location.

No matter your age, your body works the same way as everyone else and, knowing this, it’s never too early to learn how to get your lower body to deliver your pitches into your target.

Again, no matter your age, you locate your pitches against the untrained Hitters you face, and your Big-League pitch location is sure to attract lots of attention from lots of influential baseball people.

Lower Body Engagement

There’s no magic formula for getting your lower body to drive your pitches, but, unless you think of your lower body engagement as something that happens, not something you do, you’re unlikely to produce the Big-League pitch location that’ll drive a very productive pitching career

Don’t know what impacts your lower body activity?

Getting your lower body to deliver your pitches into your target without changing your entire delivery is complicated but, when you understand how your body parts interact with one another, is very doable.

Unsure how this works? Don’t know someone who can do this? … then visit the Pro Pitching Institute.

Baseball Pitching Predicament becomes Your Dilemma

As a Pitcher, you mistakenly grow up thinking velocity, not pitch location, is your ticket to your Big-League pitching dreams.

By the time you realize Big-League Hitters are better equipped to drive your mistakes than you’re equipped to hit your spots, it might be too late to change the course of your pitching career.

How does Baseball deal with this disparity?

Professional Organizations invite Lower-Level Pitchers with the best “feel” for their pitch location to fill their Big-League openings.

When these Lower-Level Pitchers test their skill against Big-League Hitters, the Pitcher can only “hope” to keep their pitches out of the Big-League Hitters hitting zone.

Unfortunately, a “feel” for the strike zone is something that’s very personal and, consequently, isn’t teachable.

Therefore, the Lower-Level Pitchers who get a chance to pitch in the Bigs rarely live their Big-League dreams for long.

We build pitching futures.

Our “Pitch Location Success Plans^©”  …

• Shows you how to turn your “feel” for the strike zone into the expectation that your pitches will travel directly into your target
• No matter your age or skill level, teaches you how to discourage Hitters from driving your pitches.
• Gives you the opportunity to move up the Baseball Ladder smoothly and seamlessly.

Don’t Let Hitters Steal Your MLB Pitching Dreams

The MLB Business Model wants you to succeed but doesn’t support your success.

Every Professional Pitcher and every Positional Player dream of having an MLB career.

- A Pitcher’s MLB pitching dreams ride on their ability to neutralize a constant flow of extremely talented Hitters. 

- A Hitter’s MLB dreams hinge on their ability to make the Pitcher constantly pay for their mistakes.

A high-end fastball can turn you into a Professional Pitcher, but to realize your MLB pitching dreams, you need to navigate your way around a constant stream of Hitters wanting to achieve their MLB dreams.

The only way to stop these skilled Hitters from stealing your MLB pitching dreams is for you to deliver your pitches directly into a target that’s been placed in a hard to hit spot.

Reality Check

Because MLB Organizations have lots of Pitchers in their Minor League system, they can fill their MLB openings with Pitchers who they think are ready to challenge MLB Hitters.

When a Pitcher gets their MLB call-up, but can’t locate their pitches, a stream of top-notch Hitters will reach base and the Organization will have no choice but to send the Pitcher back down.

We bridge the gap between professional pitchers and MLB inning eaters.

As just one example, after registering an 8.22 ERA over 7.2 innings during his first-ever MLB call up, a first-round MLB draft pick asked us to help him with his pitch location. We eliminated what was negatively impacting his location and, in his next call up, he started 22 MLB games while posting a 5.08 ERA over 117 innings.

Achieve Your MLB Dreams

Failure is not an option.

You can try and try and try and try, but nothing seems to work.

You can accept failure, or, to achieve your MLB dreams, you can find a way to turn your failures into success.

Sounds so simple, but what exactly is the formula for turning failure into success?

Let’s do some detective work.

Whatever is holding you back is something you can’t see but is always present.

Let’s save you some time … Gravity fits very nicely into this category. Gravity is all around us all the time. So much so that we tend to take it for granted.

Gravity leads you to something else you can’t see and may have yet to consider. Balance.

Your mind uses gravity to tell your body that it’s out of balance. The instant your body senses an imbalance, your mind manipulates your body position and, more importantly, while your body performs its balancing routine your movements take on a life of their own.

Therefore, to produce MLB ready results, you want your throwing action to become the balancing routine your body uses to get itself back into balance.

How do you do this?

You start with and stick with ONE pitching plan. Once you have a pitching plan, you discipline yourself to adjust to trends.

Every time you experience 3 or more unacceptable outcomes in a row, you know some movement within your pitching plan is forcing you to use your throwing arm as a part of your balancing routine.

As long as you stick with your ONE pitching plan, over 100’s of adjustments, you come up with a pitching plan that’ll use your throwing action as your one and only balancing routine. In the end, you can expect to deliver your pitches directly into your intended target, produce late stage ball movement and use your deceptive arm action to become an MLB inning eater.

Becoming MLB Ready Should be a Given

How does a Pitcher become MLB ready?

1. Location - A Catcher places his target in a spot where the Hitter is least likely to drive the ball and the Pitcher hits the Catcher’s spot.
2. Ball Movement – Every pitch breaks so close to the plate that it becomes extremely difficult for the Hitter to make solid contact with any pitch the Pitcher throws.
3. Change of Speed - By showing fastball arm speed on every pitch, the Pitcher keeps their Opponent guessing about ball speed or movement.

How does a Pitcher get all 3 to happen all at once?

1. Location - Their lower body pulls their throwing hand through the same spot on every pitch.
2. Ball Movement - The additional energy their lower body channels up their core and out their throwing hand forces their ball to break closer to the plate than normal.
3. Change of Speed – The Pitcher’s lower body driving their throwing hand into release means, no matter the Pitcher’s grip or release, their fastball arm speed challenges the Hitter to make solid contact with any pitch they throw.

Why can’t baseball teach lower body engagement?

• Baseball treats lower body engagement as something a Pitcher does, yet, research proves, a Pitcher’s lower body engagement is actually a reaction to the Pitcher’s body position at the end of their front leg lift.
• Until Baseball learns how to teach lower body engagement through their Student’s front leg lift position, Pitchers will continue to waste their time trying to do something that’s physically impossible to do.

Pitchers accept a subpar standard of performance

Instead of pitching to a lower standard of performance directly related to Baseball’s inability to engage a Pitcher’s lower half, Pitchers should ...

• Maximize their throwing arm speed and expect the ball to end up where they want.
• Measure their pitching through their pitch location, not their stats.
• Create Pitcher’s counts instead of letting the Opponent control the count.
• Know their position on the Team is secure without concern for someone with better command taking their spot.

Finding Solutions

We have the only pitching protocol guaranteed to teach you the lower body engagement that’s required to become the Pitcher you always wanted to be.

Stop Moving Down the Mound!

Knowledge Base:        Inertia describes an object’s resistance to change in motion.

Momentum describes an object’s movement.

Momentum Hurts Location

When your delivery is driven by your movement down the mound, your shoulder rotation produces yours ball release.

Unless your stride tempo is exactly the same from one pitch to the next, your release point will continually change, and you can’t know with any certainty where any one pitch will end up.

Inertia Produces Location

When, out of your front leg lift, you open your front shoulder, you spin down the mound, your foot plant stops your rotation and your ball release becomes an instinctive reaction.

Once you know how to duplicate your change in direction from one pitch to the next, you can expect your pitches to travel directly into your target.

Finding Location Solutions

With momentum, your location depends upon your stride tempo. Anyone can ask any Pitcher to make their stride tempo the same on every pitch, but we have yet to find a way to reproduce the same tempo from one pitch to the next.

With inertia, your location comes from ending your front leg lift with your weight evenly distributed around your core. Ending your front leg lift with your weight centered around your core is an extremely teachable skill. Therefore, instead of hoping your ball goes where you want, location becomes an expectation.

Unconscious Pitch Results are Within Reach

A Typical Movement Cycle

Every movement you make on and off the diamond follows this pattern.

1. Balance - You always begin in a balanced position.
2. Action - You make an action.
3. Balance - Your subconscious gets your body back into balance.
4. You begin the process all over again.

High-Level Results Begin with a Front Leg Lift

Balance - You end your front leg lift with your weight evenly distributed around your core.

1. Action – You open your upper body toward your target.
2. Balance – Your action forces your subconscious to use your throwing action to get your body back into balance.

Result – Your subconscious brings your throwing hand through a very sustainable and extremely productive release window.

Ordinary Results Also Begin with your Front Leg Lift

Balance - You end your front leg lift with your weight over your back foot.

1. Action - Your only option is to stride toward your target.
2. Balance – Your action forces your subconscious to use your throwing arm to balance your weight as you move down the mound, then, as you end your stride, uses your throwing arm to balance your weight between your feet.

Result – To complete your delivery, you’re forced to make a separate throwing action and, when your subconscious turns your throwing action into an independent movement, you never know where any one pitch will end up.

Finding Solutions

We teach Pitchers how to use their front leg lift to force their subconscious to deliver their pitches directly into their target.

A Biologically Based Look at Your Throwing Action

The Evolution of Lower Body Engagement

The only way to truly maximize your lower body rotation is by balancing on one foot and opening your front shoulder.

When you do this, your spinning action tells your body you may be in jeopardy of getting hurt.

To stabilize the situation, your body places your front foot back on the ground.

When your front foot hits the ground, it’s your connection with the ground that causes your hips, when compared to your shoulders, to over rotate.

Your body’s drive to get your shoulders parallel to your hips forces your under rotated shoulders to catch up with your hips.

Your shoulders catching up with your hips whips your throwing hand into release.

Creating a Lower Body Throwing Action

Lower body engagement begins with your hands separating at the same time your stride begins.

Your hand separation opens your front shoulder and sets off the cascading series of events described above.

As a consequence, you see your throwing arm whipping into release, your ball ending up where you expect and you challenging the best hitters to make solid contact with your pitches.

Measuring Your Lower Body Involvement

Your lower body is driving your results when …

Your Motion - Your hands separate at the same time you begin your stride.

Your Results – You expect each pitch to end up where you planned.

Your Opponent - Your Opponent’s tendency is to miss your mistakes.

Finding Solutions

Failure to experience any of these indicators means you need to pay more attention to your movements into your front leg lift.

5 Confidence Builders

Use these 5 confidence builders to remove the toxicity from your pitching and give yourself the confidence required to experience more success every time you take the mound.

●     Stop living in the past.

Learn from the past and always move forward.

●     Learn to control and manage your thoughts.

Stay focused on the movement patterns you know produce the best results.

●     Use trends to improve.

Instead of making arbitrary adjustments, use your performance trends to pinpoint areas needing improvement.

●     Adjust your footwork.

Anytime you want to improve, begin by changing your footwork, then use your results to measure your adjustments and work from there.

●     Never beat yourself up.

You’ll always experience ups and downs, but, overall, when a larger portion of your pitches end up closer to your target than in the past, you are getting better.

What's in your future?

Follow these simple recommendations and, rather than trying to produce the results you think you need, have the confidence to be the best version of yourself and know, with the right focus, you have what it takes to succeed against the best hitters at the highest levels.

ONLY ONE PITCHING APPROACH PRODUCES SUCCESS!

Managing the way you think to move produces better, more sustainable, pitching results than trying to manage the way you see your body move.

The Most Elite Pitchers Use an Inside/Out Approach

When examined closely, 5% of all Pitchers use an Inside/Out process to achieve the elite pitching results you dream of having.

An Inside/Out Mental Process lets your foot placements (the outside) use your body’s inherent reaction patterns to drive your results (the inside).

• Your foot placements drive your body position at the top of your front leg lift.
• Your front leg lift body position determines your throwing arm path.
• Your throwing arm path impacts where the pitch ends up.

With an Inside/Out approach, you stop trying and start producing the elite results you always dreamed you have.

The Rest of the Pitchers Use an Outside/In Approach

Until examined more closely, you represent the 95% of all Pitchers who  use an Outside/In Approach to try and manage your reactions (the outside) as if they were controllable actions (the inside).

Typically an Outside/In Approach deals with the movements you see as you move from your front leg lift into your release.

• When you experience an unacceptable result, you think to adjust your arm slot.
• You use trial-and-error to figure out the arm angle that’ll improve your last pitch results.
• Finally, you use muscle memory to reinforce your new arm slot.

With Outside/in Approach, you feel like you’re always wondering where your next pitch is going to end up.

Effective foot placements produce remarkably consistent results

Your foot placements supply the prompts guaranteed to produce 5%’er results. If you’re a Pitcher or a Pitching Dad who wants to know about their current foot placement, let's talk.

How to Experience Instant Pitch Improvement

You want any change to your motion to do two things.

First, you want to feel like your release is less restricted. Second, you want to see a larger portion of your pitches travel into your intended target.

Balance predicts these outcomes.

The more your biological need for balance keeps your throwing arm free to react to your lower body activity, the less restricted your motion feels and, better yet, the more you can expect your pitches to end up going where you want.

On the other hand, the more your biological need for balance uses your throwing arm to offset your stride, the more stressful it becomes to get your ball to end up where you want.

Leg lifts and balance

When your leg lift ends with your back knee to the second base side of your back foot, you can spin into your stride, use your throwing action to keep your body in balance and, on a regular basis, can expect your pitches to travel into your target.

Contrary to this, when your leg lift ends with your back knee over or in front of your back foot, you have to stride toward your target, you use your throwing arm path to offset your stride and you never know where any one pitch will end up.

How to guarantee sustainable improvement

Your “leg lifts and balance” indicate the right changes to your front leg lift is certain to improve your results.  Knowing this, the only way to change your front leg lift becomes adjusting your initial foot placements.

The best news is that simple changes to your foot placements are very measurable and incredibly repeatable and, with the right footwork, your improvement is guaranteed.

Failure is not an option

Our “Winning Pitch Location Strategies^©” teaches you a dynamic front leg lift position that sends your ball where you want and with the ball movement you expect.

Pitching Balance Guarantees Sustainability

What is your sequencing?

Next time you look at your motion, focus on your front leg/hand separation sequencing.

When, after you begin your stride, your hands separate, you know your biological need for balance is using your throwing arm path to offset your stride.

When your natural need for balance takes over your throwing arm path, you cannot possibly know with any certainty where any one pitch ends up.

As a result of your stride coming before your hand separation, whether you realize it or not, every pitching session is spent TRYING to figure out a way to control your biological drive for balance. 

The solution is not as simple as you think.

Contrary to widely held beliefs, no one has the will power to simply demand your hand separation to come before your stride.

However, you do have the power to better manage your biological need for balance.

Right now, it is your biological need for balance that ends your front leg lift with your weight over your back foot.

With your weight over your back foot, you have one choice … stride and use your arms for balance.

Therefore, you change your stride/separation sequence by making your weight distribution into your front leg lift more efficient.

Do this and, instead of striding out of your front leg lift, you come out of your front leg lift with your hand separation triggering your stride.

What is in your future?

If you can’t find a way to get your initial legwork to change your hand separation/stride sequence, ask me for help.

My “Winning Pitch Location Master Strategies^©” will teach you how to use your hand separation to produce the pitch location required to compete at the highest levels.
