Improve Your Lower Body Results

The larger the distance between your knees the more command you have. Therefore, a balanced front leg lift keeps your front knee in front of your front hip.

 Hi, my name is Coach Skip and I teach lower body engagement.

Your Goal

The larger the distance between your knees the more command you have.

Therefore, a balanced front leg lift keeps your front knee in front of your front hip.

Your Process

Your lower body engagement occurs when you produce a balanced front leg lift, your shoulders open, and you stride.

Your stride prompts your lower body sends the ball into your target.

Your Resolution

Concentrate on a balanced front leg lift, and the hitter needs to read location, ball speed, and movement.

Your Lower Body and Your Body

 

Stop using your arms for balance and get your balance to spot your pitches.

Hi, I’m Coach Skip and I teach lower body engagement.

When Does Your Body Fail?

You don’t realize it, but your arms are used to keep your body in balance.

You either use your arms for balance and deliver the ball to your target or your body is in balance, and you deliver the ball to your target.

When Does Your Body Succeed?

The difference is your starting position.  

A balanced starting position promotes accuracy.

You get into your starting position and use your glove hand position to place your pitches.

The Resolution

Nothing can be simpler!

Feel free to use my do-it-yourself pitching program or my in-person, South Jersey pitching sessions to improve your motion to get your starting position in balance.

Until next time, I’m Coach Skip telling you your lower body is teachable.

Your Lower Body and Your Glove Arm

 Hi, I’m Coach Skip and I teach lower body engagement.

Pro Pitching Institute

An Inactive Glove Hand

From an out-of-balance starting position, you use your glove arm to keep your body in balance, you lose control of your glove hand until your front foot hits the ground and, when your front foot hits the ground, your glove arm has no impact on your pitch location.      

An Active Glove Hand

However, from a balance starting position, your pitch location is about your glove hand path triggering your lower body and sending the ball into your target.

With this specific glove hand path, your pitch location becomes automatic, and your concern is your pitch speed and movement.

The Resolution

If you’re unable to get your glove hand to drive your command, feel free to use my do-it-yourself pitching program or my in-person, South Jersey pitching sessions to improve your motion.

Until next time, I’m Coach Skip telling you your lower body is coachable.

Your Lower Body and Your Feet

Your foot position promotes your lower body.

 Hi, I’m Coach Skip and I teach lower body engagement.

Your Feet Kill Your Results

When your feet begin too far apart, your front leg takes over your motion.

Your front leg must hit the ground and your throwing hand delivers the ball toward your target.

Because you don’t consciously control your throwing hand, you never know where your ball will end up.         

Your Feet Promote Lower Body Engagement

On the other hand, when your feet create balance, your glove hand gets your hips to rotate, your hips fire your throwing hand, and your lower body delivers your ball into your target.

If you’re unable to get your feet in the right position, feel free to use my do-it-yourself pitching program or my in-person, South Jersey pitching sessions to improve your motion.

Until next time, I’m Coach Skip telling you your lower body is coachable.

Lower Body Engagement

Lower Body Involvement

 Hi, I’m Coach Skip and I teach lower body engagement.

What is Lower Body Engagement?

Your foot positions, front leg lift, and glove hand action force your lower body to deliver the ball to your target.

You must first balance your front leg lift, then have your glove hand take you into your foot strike.

Your glove hand takes you into a naturally automatic release point and your release point produces your command.

How Do You Get It?

No one else spent the time to discover how your lower body delivers the ball to your target than me.

So, if you’re unable to get your lower body to produce your command, feel free to use my do-it-yourself pitching program or my in-person, South Jersey pitching sessions to improve your motion.

Until next time, I’m Coach Skip telling you your lower body is coachable.

The Origin of Fastball Command

 

Fastball command isn’t about your throwing action.

What Fastball Command Isn’t

Fastball command isn’t about your throwing action … it’s about your front leg lift.

Without a balanced front leg lift, your foot plant is gravity driven, and your ball goes within your target area, but never into your target as often as you need.

What Fastball Command Is

The most important action is your balanced front leg lift.

Fastball command comes from producing a balanced front leg lift, a well-managed glove hand action, and a well-timed throwing arm trigger.

Resolution

Unable to get your balance into your front leg lift, feel free to use my do-it-yourself pitching program or my in-person, South Jersey pitching sessions to improve your motion.

Until next time, I’m Coach Skip telling you pitch location is coachable.

Promote Fastball Command

 

Your fastball command improves when you keep your throwing arm in front of your body.

Random Fastball Command

Your throwing hand going behind your body tells you that you don’t have the fastball command you need.

Your throwing arm going behind your body is used to balance your stride, your body position is random, and your ball release is arbitrary.

Pinpoint Fastball Command

However, your hands staying in front of your body shouts fastball command.

Your body is in balance, your throwing arm reacts to your glove hand, you land in the same body position all the time, and the ball goes where you want.

Resolution

Unable to get your throwing arm in front of your body, feel free to use my do-it-yourself pitching program or my in-person, South Jersey pitching sessions to improve your motion.

Until next time, I’m Coach Skip telling you pitch location is coachable.
