"Moving forward while staying back" This makes zero sense at first glance, but is ultimately what needs to happen to generate maximum velocity. ✅We need the linear momentum of the stride. ✅We must find a way to convert as much of this into usable rotation (angular momentum) as possible.... show more

80% of pitching velocity comes from rotation. The biggest mistake I see is guys trying to rotate by pushing hard down the mound. They try to push to create as much linear momentum as possible. That’s actually the wrong way to approach it. When you push, it becomes much harder to rotate effectively. Rotation is where most of your pitching velocity comes from. Hip to shoulder separation is responsible for about 80 percent of your velocity. If you take away from that separation, you’re taking away from your velocity. That’s why even from your knees you should be able to throw about 80 percent of your top velocity. What we want to do is maximize rotation and create as much separation as possible. Your pelvis fires toward the target while the ribcage, shoulders, and pec stay back. That stretch creates torque through your torso. That torque is what propels the arm through the throw. I created a full guide on this, so if you want it, comment guide below and I’ll send it over.

This Back Leg Adjustment Got Me to 98 mph. What’s the best way to load into your back leg? When I threw 95, I tried to get as deep and load into my back leg as much as possible. The adjustment that got me to 98 was speeding up the drop into my back leg. I started dropping into that back leg as quickly as possible. The quicker you go down, the higher you can jump. That’s scientifically proven. That’s what we want to emulate in the pitching delivery with the back leg. We want to relax into it. We want to drop into it. By doing that we’re putting force into the ground not only vertically but horizontally as well. So to recap, you’re shifting your weight and then relaxing into your back leg. That’s what creates that burst of energy going forward.

Stop Pushing With Your Back Leg As I trained to throw harder, I thought I needed to create a ton of momentum down the mound and really push off the rubber. That was actually holding me back from gaining pitching velocity for a couple reasons. The first reason was that pushing made it really hard for my pelvis to fire because it put me in a worse position instead of a better one. When I was pushing, it also made me fly open. The fix was thinking about keeping everything back and letting the pelvis rotate instead of pushing with my back leg. Most of your linear momentum comes from the drift and the drop in your delivery and the back leg. The back leg does have a role in building linear momentum, but its more important role is putting you in a good position to rotate. To create separation between your pelvis and your rib cage. That separation is what gives you true hip to shoulder separation that you can actually fire from.

Moments to momentum - plenty of memorable ones from 2024. Quick glance back as we eagerly await the return of Team 52 and the 2025 season. This is one super group. Happy New Year!

Democrats have the momentum heading into November’s midterms. But as I told the National Federation of Democratic Women, momentum doesn’t knock on doors. It doesn’t register voters. It doesn’t get out the vote. We must put in the work to ensure a blue wave this fall.

Lower body mechanics to throw 95 mph. There are four things about the lower body that I wish I knew when I was a 16 year old throwing 78 miles an hour and trying to throw 90 miles an hour and beyond. The first is the leg lift and how well you're able to start creating momentum toward the target. One of the biggest mistakes people make is thinking they need to fall forward as soon as they lift their leg to create drift. What worked for me was coming to a balance point first and then starting to shift my weight from there. That's still a form of drift, and you see a lot of Japanese pitchers do this, like Yoshinobu Yamamoto. The second component is the back leg and how it creates linear momentum toward the target. One of the biggest mistakes I made was diving too much into the quad. I'd get onto my toes and sink into my quad, which led to less power and actually made rotating much harder. Another mistake I made was squatting as deep as possible into the back leg, almost like a pistol squat. What actually helped me was simply dropping down as quickly as possible. I let gravity pull me down. If you've created enough drift, even just a slight drift, that drop will create linear momentum down the mound. The third component is getting the pelvis to rotate into foot plant. The biggest thing here is matching your pelvis plane of rotation and making sure the pelvis rotates down into foot plant rather than rotating upward. One of my favorite cues for this is to slam the knee down or get onto your shoelaces. The last component is simple. It's the lead leg block. You're trying to block all of the momentum you've created like your life depends on it. For me, I tried to extend as high as I could. That actually helped my pelvis continue to rotate because as the front leg extends, the pelvis gets more open. Those are the four things I wish I knew about the lower body when I was trying to gain pitching velocity.

I've never been a huge fan of how most pitchers do rocker throws - with minimal loading & no rotation. ✅Try allowing the lead heel to free up, loading rotationally into the back hip. ✅Let the pelvis pop open from this loaded position and funnel that energy into a loose arm.

I went from 92 to 98 miles an hour by adjusting my drop. When I used to think about the drop phase in my delivery, I thought I needed to drop as hard as I could into my back leg. So that’s what I did. I dropped in, got into a squat position, and powered myself out of it. That got me to the low to mid nineties. What got me to 96, 97, and 98 was learning to create linear momentum during the drop. I started moving down the mound instead of just dropping straight down. One of the biggest things that helped was dropping into the inside of my back foot. Before, I would drop into the sole of my back foot. That put me in a very vertical shin angle and I’d go straight down. Then I had to push out of it. The simple adjustment I made was dropping into the inside of my back foot. That put me in a position where my shin wasn’t as vertical. It created a force vector that helped me get down the mound and build linear momentum instead of just going straight down. That linear momentum wasn’t powered by me. It was powered by gravity. I was able to use gravity to my advantage and throw harder with less effort.

Two key emphases of the med ball variations that Justin James demonstrates in our Power courses and exercise library are 1) throwing with maximum intent and 2) creating a feeling of the “legs driving the arms.” The most powerful rotational athletes don’t swing or throw with a soft front side. This is critical for being able to convert linear momentum into rotational velocity. OnBaseU

Foot down. Moving forward. But still back. Can you do that? It’s not hard. Different. But not hard. Stretch versus momentum. 95% or more don’t do this. And they must to teach their potential.

Why does a spinning object speed up as it shrinks? This Hoberman sphere demonstration illustrates the law of conservation of angular momentum. Moment of inertia measures how mass is distributed relative to the axis of rotation. When the sphere collapses, its mass moves inward. This decrease in inertia forces the angular velocity to increase because the total momentum of the system must remain constant. This same principle allows figure skaters to accelerate their spins and causes collapsing stars to become rapidly rotating pulsars. It is a fundamental rule of physics. Geometry determines speed.

There are many questions to be answered. Who? Was this coordinated? Is there an organization involved? Why was it possible for this to happen? How will Biden, Trump, and Congress respond? As these questions are answered, we must show that this is not who we are. This is a time not to do the minimum, but to do the maximum and come together as Americans
