FREE Instruction When We Can’t Get Your Glove Hand to Activate Your Delivery!

No Glove Hand Activity

Due to your Starting Position, your Front Leg comes off the ground and your Knee begins behind your Front Hip.

To get out of this position, your Front Foot moves forward, extends your Foot, and hits the ground.

At the point your Front Foot hits the ground, your Glove hand balances your Body, and your Throwing Arm takes over to deliver the ball to your target.

Your aim depends upon the angle of your Front Foot in your Starting Position.

The chances the ball goes to the same point depend upon your Throwing Hand release.

Quality Glove Hand Activity

Due to your Starting Position, your Front Leg comes off the ground and your Front Knee consciously stays in front of your Front Hip.

To get out of this position, your Front Knee stays in front of your Front Hip and your Glove Hand moves your Lower Body.

When your Glove Hand clears your Lower Body, your Throwing Arm reacts to your Glove Hand and delivers the ball to your target with uncanny regularity.

FREE Instruction When We Can’t Correctly Position Your Front Leg!

Your Front Foot Goes Behind Your Hip

In your Starting Position, your Front Leg finishing behind your Front Hip places your weight over your Back Foot.

With your weight over your Back Foot, your weight needs to get back in balance.

Your weight gets back in balance at your Foot Strike.

Your weight balanced at your Foot Strike finds your Throwing Hand working alone to get your ball to your target.

Your consistency suffers and the ball rarely finds your target.

Your Front Foot Lands Even With Your Back Foot

In your Starting Position, your Front Foot finishing even with your Back Foot centers your weight just to the front of your Back Foot.

With your weight in front of your Back Foot, your weight is in balance.

Now, to get your Body to move into your Throwing Action, you must shift your weight.

You shift your weight by sending your Glove Hand forward.

Your Glove Hand creates an imbalance to, at the same time, prompt your Foot Strike and Throwing Action.

Your pitch goes into your target with uncanny regularity.

FREE Instruction When We Can’t Turn Your Command into an Expectation!

“Feeling” Your Motion

When you “feel” the way your Body moves, something gets in your way, and the ball misses your target.

“Feeling” the way your Body moves is like throwing darts. Sometimes the dart goes where you want, but most of the time, the dart goes somewhere else.

Mechanics is not about “feeling” the way your Body naturally moves, mechanics is all about the way your Body to meant to move.

Command Is a Need

You want your motion to deliver the ball to your target, but your Lower Body presents an obstacle.

Your Lower Body doesn’t really rotate. All it does is land your Front Foot.

Your Front Foot lands and you go into your Throwing Motion.

Get your Lower Body involved, and the ball goes into your target.

Command As an Expectation

You get your Lower Body involved with your motion and there’s nothing stopping you from delivering the ball to your target.

Your Lower Body causes your Glove Hand to pull your Throwing Hand into release, and your release brings the ball to your target with uncanny regularity.

FREE Instruction When Your Body is Wrong!

A good Back Knee, Front Heel, and Glove Hand Palm Position is all you need to command your pitching into your target with uncanny regularity.

Your Back Knee Position.

Your first step places your weight just in front of your Back Knee.

Your Back Knee needs to begin at the Second Base Side of your Back Foot.

Your Glove Palm Hand Position

Next, your Glove Hand position keeps your weight just in front of your Back Foot.

Your Glove Hand Palm position goes to the center.

Your Front Heel Position.

Finally, by placing your Feet close to one another, your weight assuredly ends up just in front of your Back Foot.

Your Front Heel is close to your Back Heel.

Something is Wrong

Whenever you can’t hold your Starting Position and need to make a throwing action, something isn’t right.

Your Back Knee beginning over or ahead of your Back Foot, your Glove Hand Palm beginning in front of the center, and your Front Heel too far away from your Back Heel causes you to make a throwing action.

Quality Instruction or You Don’t Pay!

Your Back Knee, Front Heel, and Glove Hand Palm positions produce command.

FREE Instruction When We Can’t Add Command to Your Velocity!

The extra velocity comes from your Lower Body encouraging your Stride and your Throwing Arm to deliver the ball to your Catcher’s target.

What is velocity?

Velocity is the speed at which your ball gets to your target without giving the batter little time to think about the pitch.

Most Pitchers don’t realize is most of the time the hitter swings at pitches outside the strike zone.

Where does Velocity come from?

Any weight shift from any part of your Body prompts your velocity to come from your Throwing Arm working alone.

When your Lower Body isn’t involved, you Stride and throw the pitch.

What is command?

Command is your ability to deliver the ball with velocity right into your target.

Command and velocity improve your results.

You send the ball right to your target, keep the Hitter off balance, and get the outs in the spots you want.

What’s the origin of command?

The extra velocity comes from your Lower Body encouraging your Stride and your Throwing Arm to deliver the ball to your Catcher’s target.

Once your Glove Arm prompts your Lower Body to fire your Throwing Hand, your Hips prompts your Throwing Arm.

Now, the Hitter has a deal with all your pitches.

Balanced Starting Position

The best position is keeping your Front Knee in front of your Front Hip and your Front Heel in line with your Back Toe.

Why?

To get your pitch to the target with uncanny regularity, you must keep your weight back, have your Glove Hand prompt your Lower Body, and your Lower Body pulls your Throwing Hand through to the target.

Your Body’s movement prompts your Throwing Arm to deliver the ball to your target.

Anything other than your weight back stimulates a series of at least 20 reactionary instances that’ll cause your pitch to not hit your target.

Bad Starting Positions

Any position where your Front Knee is behind your Front Hip is an instance where your ball misses your target more than hits your target.

You land your Stride, your Front Hip catches up with your Body, and you deliver the ball like you were throwing darts.

Some of your pitches hit the target, but many more missed.

Good Starting Position

The best position is keeping your Front Knee in front of your Front Hip and your Front Heel in line with your Back Toe.

Your Glove Arm naturally turns your Lower Body, your Shoulders follow, and your Throwing Arm fires your pitch.

Your Stride and Throwing Action become one motion.

A Motion Producing One Result

The easier way to get your Body in balance is with your Front Heel near your Back Heel.

Easy Balance

You want your Front Heel to begin close to your Back Heel.

- With your Heels close to each other, when you lift your Front Foot, you preserves your balance, and you deliver the ball with your Glove Hand.

- Without your Heel-to-Heel relationship, your weight shifts, your Head moves, and your land your Stride before your Throwing Arm delivers the ball.

The easier way to get your Body in balance is with your Front Heel near your Back Heel.

Your Throwing Arm

You want your Glove Hand to prompt your Lower Body to fire your Throwing Arm.

- When the Pitcher’s motions are in balance, their Glove Hand tips their weight and naturally turns. They land their Foot Strike, and their Throwing Arm sends the ball to their target with uncanny regularity.

- When the Pitcher’s motion contains an imbalance, their motion is much simpler. The Pitcher lands their Stride, and their Throwing Arm sends the ball to their target. The number of pitches going into their target is like throwing a dart at a dart board ... sometimes you hit your target, but most of the time you miss.

Make your Throwing Arm involved by your Body being in balance.
