Lower Body Step and Throw

 

Don’t “Step then Throw”

In your Starting Position, when your front knee goes behind your front hip, your Arms instinctively keep your body in balance.

You regain the use of your Arms at Foot Plant, then you deliver the ball.

You let your weight move forward, you step then throw, and your Throwing Action determines your ball location.

Do “Step and Throw”

However, when your Front Knee stays in front of your front hip, you control your Arms movements, land your Foot Plant, and throw the ball.

Your Arms deliver the ball to your target, and you force the Hitter to pick up ball speed and movement.

Essentially, your Lower Body produces your command.

Your Resolution

Can’t get your Lower Body to find your target, then ask for help!

There’s no mystery to Lower Body involvement.

Lower body engagement is a natural response to your ball's exact location.

Your Action

1. Your Front Leg puts your Glove Hand in a position to control your motion,

2. Your Glove Hand goes palm up at the right time, and

3. You activate your Lower Body.

Your Result        

Your Lower Body drives your pitch location, and your ball naturally goes directly into your target.

Your Lower Body involvement is guaranteed.

Your Resolution

Can’t get your Lower Body to find your target, then ask for help!

Starting Positions Produce Lower Body Activity

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

The Lower Body Process

Your lower body pitching process encompasses some well-defined mechanics.

First, your Starting Position produces your Front Leg lift.

Then, your Front Leg lift generates your Lower Body activity.

Finally, your Lower Body activity sends the ball directly into your target.

What Do You Earn?

Even small adjustments in your body’s mechanics produce superior results.

Miss your starting position, forget about your lower body and your body naturally adapts.

Struggling with your lower body pitching process?

Coach Skip is here for you.

Improve Your Lower Body Results

 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

 

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.

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.
