Accelerate Your Pitching Results

 

Pro Pitching Institute

Most Pitchers are Conflicted

If you’re like most Pitchers, this describes your pitching experience.

Between starts, Pitching Coaches hold you accountable for adding the mechanics they feel will turn you into a better Pitcher.

However, during games, you hold yourself accountable for your results and, typically, don’t have time to even think about the mechanics your Pitching Coach wants to see.

Balance Closes the Gap

When a Pitching Coach allows an imbalance to creep into your motion, your body will use your throwing arm for balance, and your less-than-acceptable in-game results will force you to adjust.

However, when a Pitching Coach teaches balance, the Coach keeps your throwing arm free to produce the competitive results you want.

A Balanced Process Supercharges Your Pitching

Since your results indicate the degree to which you use your throwing arm for balance, your Coach’s job is to find and limit any imbalance.

The instant he adjusts your balance you immediately see more pitches travel directly into your target.

As your Coach goes through this process, you walk away with a movement sequence that’ll generate the competitive results you need to succeed every time you take the mound.

An External Force Will Limit Your Pitching Dreams

 

Pro Pitching Institute

It’s an outside force you’re familiar with.

- You’ve lived with it since birth.
- It’s a physical reality.
- It’ll easily clear a path to your pitching dreams.

The force most Pitchers fail to consider is “balance”.

As soon as you embrace your balance, you …

- Tap into a world that’s just waiting to be discovered.
- Find the fundamental truths behind every pitching outcome.
- Learn to completely control your pitching motion.

Once you apply balance to your motion…

- Your pitches end up where you want.
- Your only focus becomes the actions impacting your results.
- You instantly fill the gap between what you want and what you see happen.

Without balance, you risk failure.

Balance means you evenly distribute your weight around your core.

When you let a movement shift your weight, balance automatically uses your throwing arm to offset your weight shift and your target area expands.

With balance, most excel.

Use balance to measure your motion and your throwing arm remains free to regularly deliver your pitches directly into your intended target.

Fewer hitters reach base, you keep your Team close enough to win more games, and next-level Teams beat a path to your door.

Your Pitching Performances Follow Your Balance.

 

Pro Pitching Institute

Balance measures performance.

While other measurements tell you what to improve, balance tells you how you can improve.

Your pitch location follows the size of your release window, and your release window is driven by how much your body needs your throwing arm to offset the weight shifts your movements create.

Balance tells you about your motion.

Balance supplies the raw data needed to dissect your performances, and, when used to identify your most relevant movement patterns, tells you where and when to adjust your actions.

Properly apply these adjustments and you instantly free your throwing arm to send your pitches directly into your receiver’s target.

Balance forces you to go beyond mechanics.

When you use balance to produce pitch location, your less intangible success markers fall into place.

Balance forces you to take into consideration ...
- Environmental concerns, conscious controls, and the basic nature of your pitching motion.
- Physiological, biological and neurological processes
- Beliefs, values, standards, and expectations.
- Mental strengths and weaknesses.

There’s no other measurement that goes as far as balance!

Balance is the ONLY yardstick that wraps every success measurement into a neat, well-ordered package.

Lower Body Dominance Requires a Balanced Stride

 

Pro Pitching Institute

What’s the difference between balanced/out-of-balance strides?

The difference is your weight distribution as you begin your stride.

An out-of-balance stride begins with your weight centered over or in front of your back foot.

On the other hand, a balanced stride begins with your weight centered just in front of your back foot.

How is a balanced stride important to lower body domination?

When you begin your stride with your weight centered over or in front of your back foot, you force your body to move down the mound with your hips under your shoulders.

However, begin your stride with your weight centered in front of your back foot, your body lands your stride with your lower body pulling your upper body into release.

You see the difference in your results.

With an out-of-balance stride, you throw the ball toward your target, and never really know where any single pitch will end up.

Yet, with a balanced stride, your lower body-driven pitches keep hitters from reaching base with uncanny regularity.

Need a balanced stride?

Only Coach Skip can teach you how to end your front leg lift with your weight centered in front of your back foot.

Automate Your Lower Body Engagement


Pro Pitching Institue

Getting your lower body to drive your results start with and end with your back knee position at the top of your front leg lift. 

Back Knee Over Your Back Foot

End your front leg lift with your back knee over your back foot, your weight teeters over your back foot and, to move down the mound, you’re forced to stride.

The instant you stride your mind uses your throwing arm to offset the weight shift your stride creates.

 Using your throwing arm for balance prohibits any lower body engagement and creates the chaos that makes locating your pitches a daily challenge. 

Back Knee Behind Your Back Foot

End your starting position with your back knee behind your back foot, your motion begins with your weight balanced between your knees and your throwing arm free to react to your lower body.

Your transition from your load to your stride opens your lower body and, to regain your balance, forces you to complete your pitching motion.

When you trust your body to work the way it’s intended, you automate your pitching motion, and expect your pitch location to challenge every hitter you face.

Help is here

Beginning your motion with your back knee behind your back foot isn’t as straight forward as it seems.

Need help? Coach Skip is waiting for your call.

Pitch Location is Basic Math.

 

Pro Pitching Institute


Do the Math

Like a math equation, the sum of your mechanics equals your pitch location.

Anytime you attempt to change a mechanic without considering its impact on the entire equation, your formula for pitching success is out of balance, and your pitch location suffers.

Sequencing Matters

Besides keeping your equation in balance, to maintain your pitch location, you must also consider the sequence of your actions.

One misplaced movement, and your equation falls apart, or, in pitching terms, you miss your intended target more often than is healthy for your pitching career. 

Take Your Pitching Career to Heights Unknown.

Coach Skip is the leading authority in developing very personal and extremely dependable pitch location algorithms.

Once you ask him to balance your equation, you can expect your movements to fall into a productive sequence, and your pitches travel into your intended target with uncanny regularity.

Want the sustainable pitch location needed to achieve your pitching dreams? Coach Skip is waiting for your call.

A 3x3 Rubik’s Cube Delivers a Genuine Pitching Process

 

Pro Pitching Institute

You’re handed a 3x3 Rubik’s Cube to solve.

If you’re like most people, you solve a 3x3 Rubik’s Cube by deciding which row to turn or which column to twist. This random process continues until you solve the cube or give up.

There’s another more reliable, extremely automatic, and very foolproof way to solve your cube. This process follows a simple algorithm, makes 18 twists/turns in a prescribed order, and turns the cube’s sides into solid colors.

This Rubik’s Cube progression leads to a functional pitching process.

Just like the Rubik’s Cube, the most common path to pitch location is to continually analyze your motion and make adjustments. All the while hoping your pitch location remains competitive enough to challenge the hitters you face.

Just the way the Rubik’s Cube algorithm controls the cube’s solution, your brain is hardwired to control your pitch location.

Fortunately, Coach Skip teaches 6 easily executed actions that, in a well-defined order, automatically, repeatedly, and spontaneously locate your pitches. Armed with Coach Skip’s proprietary pitching process, you can expect your pitch location to clear a path to your pitching dreams.
