6 Pitches to Motion Mastery

Due to circumstances beyond my control, I had to condense a remote bullpen session with a 26 year old free agent pitcher into 6 pitches..

To say the least, the results were extraordinary!

-   1^st pitch was used to show me how I could help this pitcher.

-   2nd pitch I asked this pitcher to make a simple back leg adjustment that would immediately transition him from an arm to a back leg balanced motion.

-   3rd and 4th motions were used to make sure and I was that this pitcher understood the adjustment.  During these couple of motion, I pick up on and introduced a very simple front leg adjustment proven to drive more energy into his throwing arm.

-  5th and 6th motions - This pitcher successfully included both adjustments into his delivery.

-  After the 6^th pitch, the pitcher was called into the game.

When the game was over, I received this response this pitcher.

“Your (2) tips dialed me into my target much more than usual and made my movements flow much more than usual!”

In just 6 pitches, just like all consecutive year, Cy Young pitching motions, I showed this pitcher how to get his glove arm to trigger his throwing action and forced his foot plant to pull his throwing hand through a naturally productive release window. 

The two adjustments I introduced let him, for once, manage his movements instead of his movements managing him.  He finally used his body the way it was built to work, not the way he forced it to work!!!

Knowing I can make this much progress in just 6 motions, imagine how productive I can make your next bullpen session.

Ask me to help you today ... your pitching future is at stake.

Consecutive year Cy Young winner can't be wrong?

Every consecutive year,  Cy Young winner ends their front leg lift with their hips levels and their motion completely under their control.

• Their level hips means, instead of using their throwing arm for balance, they force their mind's "built-in response mechanism" to keep their arms uninvolved with their balance.
• Since their arms are free to move the way they want, they use their throwing action to shift their weight to their glove hand side.
• They then rely on their mind to make the totally spontaneous, naturally productive and Tommy John resistant throwing reflex that'll get their body back in a balance.
• Consecutive year, Cy Young winners know how to get in the same position at the top of their front leg lift ... they realize their mind's "built-in response mechanism" makes them a Cy Young contender ever year.

For consecutive years, these Cy Young winners use their mind's "built-in response mechanism" to bring their throwing hand through a highly productive release window. 

• They use their eyes to fine tune their location within their target area, no matter the pitch or release, shows the hitter a fastball arm and relies upon their lower body energy to get each pitch to break extremely close to the plate.

You have two options...

• Spend hours on end trying to figure out how to end your front leg lift with your hips level or 
• Ask me to show you how to end your front leg lift in balance.

Mae the Impossible Possible

Pitchers with lower body balance clearly outperform pitchers with throwing arm balance.

Throwing Arm Balance - Pitchers with throwing arm balance produce a naturally unproductive and Tommy John prone arm slot.  

• To get the next pitch into your target area, you have to rely on eye-to-hand coordination to hopefully deliver their next pitch to your target.

Eye-to-hand coordination is something that…

· You either have eye-to-hand coordination or you don’t.

· Changes your natural energy create the small ligament tears and fraying that make you a Tommy John risk.

· Makes you ineffective at the highest levels.

Eye-to-hand coordination can’t be taught, but, with lower body balance, you excel at the highest levels without eye-to-hand coordination.

Level Hips - With level hips at the top of front leg lift, your naturally productive arm slot means…

· Your hips to deliver your next pitch into your target.

· A deceptive delivery keeps your opponent off balance.

· Your natural energy flow keeps you Tommy John resistant.

Where throwing arm balanced results relies upon an unteachable element, keeping your hips level is extremely teachable, very effective and extremely efficient.

b. No matter the pitch called, a deceptive fastball arm speed.

c. Extremely late ball movement.

d. Enhanced throwing arm speed.

e. An injury resistant throwing arm.

Even to the untrained eye, a delivery where you use your mind's "built-in response mechanism" to use your body the way it's built to work makes your motion look extremely effortless and efficient.  To the trained eye, an onlooker understands just how upwardly mobile your pitching career is.

Throwing Arm balance forces …

1. You to miss the target over the plate much more often than a pitcher with lower body balance.

Your inability to command your next pitch produces...
