Here’s a Way to Instantly Improve Your Pitching Results

Pitching aside, with both Feet on the ground, your Body naturally centers your weight between your Feet and keeps your Arms free to move the way you want.

The Results You Want

By ending your Front Leg lift with a distance between your Knees, you trick your body into acting as if you had both Feet on the ground.

Your Body keeps your Glove Arm free to engage your Lower Body, you allow your Throwing Arm to react to your Lower Body and, as an instantaneous reaction, your Throwing Action produces the results you want.

The Results You Do Have

However, when, at the top of your Front Leg lift, you place your weight over your Back Foot, you must stride.

Your stride may move you toward your target, but it also engages your Front Hip, locks your Throwing Shoulder in place, and makes using your Lower Body to drive your results physically impossible.

This means, unless you find a productive Stride tempo, you can only hope to produce the results you want.

Get Better Results

Producing better results comes from finding the right combination of Foot Placements and Lower Body positioning that’ll allow you to end your Front Leg lift with a distance between your Knees.

If you need help finding a productive Front Leg lift, Coach Skip is waiting for your call.

Start Your 2022 Season Off on the Right Foot!

 

How to Improve Your 2022 Outings?

The 2022 improvement you desire comes from keeping a clear distance between your Knees at the top of your Front Leg lift.

Do this and you keep your Throwing Arm free to repeatedly and automatically produce the results you want as often as you expect.

A Simple Goal for Your 2022 Pitching Motion

In 2022, by beginning with your Feet under your Knees, you, by design, stand a better chance to finish your Front Leg lift with your Front Knee separated from your Back, and consequently keep your Throwing Arm free to respond to your foot plant.

By using your Glove Arm to take you out of your Front Leg lift, the distance between your Knees signals your body to end your stride with your hips and shoulders at different angles.

Realize Your 2022 Goals

By plan, your Body uses your Throwing action to relieve the tension created at foot plant.

Your Body whips your Throwing Arm into release, and, in the process, automatically upgrades your 2021 results to your 2022 goals,

Need help making 2022 your best season yet, Coach Skip is waiting for your call.

Where and How to Focus Your Attention?

As a Pitcher, over and above trying to coach yourself, you have lots to think about, tons of responsibilities, get pulled in many directions at the same time, and bounce between the past and future.

However, when you stay in the present, these distractions disappear, and you produce much better results more often.

Teach Yourself to Be Present

To stop worrying about what might happen, feeling guilty about what did happen, and controlling what’s about to happen, practice your delivery in ultra-slow motion.

This simple act points out your motion’s weaknesses, and, once corrected, shuts out the distractions standing between what you want to do and what you actually do.

Realizing Exceptional Results

Making an ultra-slow motion lets you understand how your foot placements, leg work, and hand positioning combine to produce your Front Leg lift and why, coming out of your front leg lift, your motion stops at your foot plant.

An ultra-slow motion keeps you in the present, tells you in real-time the relationship between your actions/reactions, and opens the door to forcing your body to end your stride with a totally spontaneous and highly productive throwing action.

Need help managing your ultra-slow movements, Coach Skip is waiting for your call.

Dynamic Balance Improves Pitching Results

When you methodically choreograph your dynamic balance into your foot plant, you’re very likely to experience better results.

You’re dynamically balanced when your movements create a chain reaction within your shoulder, hips, arms, and legs.

How To Generate Dynamic Pitching Balance?

Dynamic balance starts with your feet under your hips.

By beginning this way, your hips remain free to shift your weight over your back leg.

With your weight over your back leg, without disrupting your balance, your front knee is free to complete your front leg lift.

From your front leg lift, you lock your back leg in place and use your free glove arm to create a spinning action proven to generate tremendous tension at foot strike.

You neutralize your body’s tension by automatically producing the results you want.

Dynamic Balance Is Easy to Teach

Your delivery lacks dynamic balance when your motion stops at your foot plant.

If this describes you, you’re not ending your front leg lift in a state of dynamic balance. Correct this, and through repetition, you’ll instantly produce better results more often.

Need help finding your dynamic balance, Coach Skip is waiting for your call.

Unlock Your Pitching Results

You open a lock by putting a predetermined sequence of numbers into a tumbler.

Likewise, you unlock more productive results when you send your body the right sequence of movements/positions.

Tell Yourself How to Succeed

Regularly send your body a proven sequence of foot placements, lower body orientations, hand positions, front leg lifts, and throwing triggers and you unlock your pitching potential.

The biggest problem you have is that, even if you had the right combination, you begin your delivery without telling your body how you want it to move.

Instead, you set your feet, think about what you want to accomplish, begin your delivery, and only hope to produce the results you want.

You Say It, You Think It

A best practice is, whether in competition or in the bullpen, to always say out loud the pitching combination you want your body to use.

Very quickly, the improved results associated with telling your body how you want it to move become a habit.

Need Your Pitching Combination?

If you’re searching for the right pitching combination, start your search with your feet, move to your legs, and finish with your upper body.

Need help finding a productive pitching combination, Coach Skip is waiting for your call.

Master Your Stride

 

When perched on one foot, your stride leg works in unison with your throwing arm.

You move your stride leg, and your throwing arm reacts. You move your throwing arm, and your stride leg reacts.

Your stride leg/throwing arm connection gives you two ways to move down the mound.

Your Stride Prompts Your Throwing Action  

End your front leg lift with your weight over your posting foot, and, to move down the mound, you must stride.

Your stride controls your throwing arm path and, until you find an efficient stride tempo, you can only hope to produce the results you want.

Your Throwing Action Prompts Your Stride

When you end your front leg lift with your front knee in line with your front shoulder, you can use your throwing action to move down the mound.

Your stride turns into a reaction, you end your stride with your hips/shoulders at opposing angles, and you produce the results you want much more often than a Pitcher who strides out of their front leg lift.

You Have a Clear Choice

You either let your stride drive your delivery and not know where your pitches will end up or use your throwing action to let your stride produce better results more often.

Want to turn your stride into a reaction? Coach Skip is waiting for your call.

Quality Glove Arm Tucks

 

Upper Body Driven Tucks

End your starting position with your front knee behind your front hip, and, to move down the mound, you must stride.

Your body uses your throwing arm to offset your movement down the mound, and you delay your glove arm tuck until you complete your stride.

Your upper body works alone, and it’s impossible for you to know with any certainty where any single pitch will end up.

Full Body Driven Tucks

When you end your starting position with your front knee in line with your front shoulder, your glove arm tuck will spin your body into your stride and force you to end your stride with your hips and shoulders at opposing angles.

You use your entire body to relieve the tension between your hips/shoulders by making a throwing action that’ll repeatedly produce the results you want.

The Hitter’s perspective.

Let your glove arm tuck force an upper-body-only delivery, and your different release points/varied arm speeds risk tipping your pitches to the best-trained Hitters.

However, use your glove arm tuck to spin your body down the mound, and your Opponents see a fastball arm speed, must guess at ball speed/movement and have a much tougher time reaching base.

Need a more efficient starting position? Coach Skip is waiting for your call.
