Medball drills are great for power development. They’re also an outstanding way to prepare the athlete for violent rotations via hitting and throwing. For us, medball volume is high at this time of the year as most guys are taking a break from throwing and hitting. By keeping our medball volume high we’re able to train power, without the increased stress of swinging a bat or throwing a ball (more CNS stress).

Doesn’t get much better than texts like this. From the guys you know have been putting in the work. — Big time recruit. Middle of the order on a big time high school team. We spent the whole offseason shortening up his swing. More ready to swing, gap to gap. He also put real focus into skinny bat, 3 plate drill, and mixed pitches. The skill of HITTING, not just the swing. Both pieces matter. The swing (mechanical advantage) and the skill of hitting. Find what you need. Train what the game is telling you to get better at. > Send this to who needs it > Save this for when you need it.

Basketball swings Force you to be strong at contact, and hit through the ball Great for hitters who drag their bat, that spin off baseballs, and don’t have much opposite field power (Start with a soccer ball and work your way up to a full size BBall)

One thing we’ve done this year is tried to randomize our training and challenge our guys a little bit more. Here we have a left-handed breaking ball with a high spin 4 seam fast ball above - our guys are acting like they’re dropping both balls and shooting one or the other

Becoming an elite thrower doesn’t happen by accident. Here are two more catch-play drills from our “Spin Cycle” progression that teach players how to make throws when the play takes their eyes and body away from the target. These are 2 of the 20 throwing drills my teams execute daily in progression. I promise they work. When taught correctly and reinforced every day, players gain confidence, make more plays, and ultimately help teams win more games. Our Dirt Bro “Most Important 20 Minutes of Practice” throwing routine is designed to build advanced throwers and separate elite defenders from the rest. This isn’t random catch play. It’s a daily progression built to improve arm action, accuracy, footwork, body control, and game-like throwing instincts. Train with purpose. Defend at a different level. Get it here:

Is your toddler suddenly throwing (or dropping) everything they get their hands on? Food, toys… you name it. You’re not alone. This week I’ve been introducing play schemas, 9 common patterns that can help to demystify your toddler’s seemingly random behaviors. And you guessed it: this is one. We call it the trajectory schema. If you take nothing else away from this post, let it be this: your little one doesn’t throw things because they are misbehaving or “bad.” Babies throw things because they are babies. And they are learning as they do so. Learning about cause and effect. Learning about gravity. Learning what (and practicing something new) they can do with their bodies. Learning hand-eye coordination. It’s a completely normal part of development. And the fascination won’t last forever. The real question is, how do you manage it? First, be proactive. Expect that anything your little one handles might reasonably be thrown or dropped. So choose wisely, avoiding items that are valuable or might pose a danger to them or others if they suddenly took flight. Second, depending on the age of your child, begin introducing some natural consequences. Put the toy/object away temporarily after it is thrown (if throwing it is dangerous or inappropriate). And involve your child in the subsequent clean-up. You can also redirect. Explain which things are and are not for throwing. Model the correct use of these objects. Finally, lean into it. Recognizing that young children are drawn to throwing, provide items that are safe and acceptable to throw. Soft toys. Socks. Balls. And look for opportunities and settings for your little one to explore this urge safely and appropriately. How did you manage your toddler’s throwing phase? Welcome your tips and tricks!

This is why needs either more width or less penalizing rough. Rose hits a high cut that lands on the right half of the fairway and bounds to left rough. It’s a crapshoot on hitting fairways, reducing skill. Furthermore, the ball goes into rough without real recovery options.

School I went to High School at runs the Wing T as has for YEARS. Literally never throw it. Tonight in round one of the playoffs, this is how the game ended. 4th and 20. Under a minute left. Down 3. This is my cousin’s kid throwing a dart for the dub!

I’ve been trying to decide if I wanted to post this or not. An insane 24 hours. For a high school all star game. A real test for the crew and myself and a testament to who they are. The guys crushed it to get a field ready.

The Biceps and Brachialis are strong decelerators of the elbow extension component of throwing which is why it is a common location for day 1 soreness ❤️Give yourself some soft tissue love with these Biceps Tack and Pump techniques + The Throwing Arm Myofascial Stretch 🔑Pin down the Biceps in a shortened position (bent elbow) and lengthen/glide it by maintaining pressure and extending the elbow. Work up and down the belly of the muscle 🔥 You can make this a little more specific to the biceps by adding in pronation with will elongate the biceps even further If the biceps shortens over time, there are two common outcomes: ⚾️ Loss of Elbow Extension Range of Motion ⚾️ Forward tipping of the throwing shoulder Neither are Ideal ** This needs to be done combined with a holistic approach of an S&C program and proper workload management as some common causes of this can be poor workload dosing or simply lack of strength

It’s been an outrageous weekend for Vanderbilt Baseball 2026 commit RJ Cope, a 6-foot-8 first baseman and lefty with top-of-scale raw juice from the left side at the plate. The big man is 10-for-16 with a homer, double, four walks to two Ks and three stolen bases. It’s a no-doubt power over hit profile but he’s done an outstanding job of waiting for his pitch and depositing it in gaps like in the video below when he put a defensive two-strike swing on a ball to cash in runs for his team in a critical spot. All of this and Cope is still new to hitting. His potential is off the charts with the bat.

⚾️ Why shouldn’t we use feet to measure intensity? Have you seen somebody throw 90 MPH from 90’? Have you seen somebody throw 65 MPH from 90’? Yes and Yes! Ok, Bad metric for our goals ⚾️ Why shouldn’t we use Perceived % intensity? We have all seen Little Johnny throw his 50% bullpen at 80 MPH. No, he does not Sit 160 MPH in games last we checked. Too subjective of a metric With all the technology and advancements in the game, there is no way we should be measuring build up throwing intensities with “Feet Thrown” or a “Subjective %” We need to be able to quantify the single most important component of a Rehab or Build Up throwing Progression: INTENSITY HERES WHY: ⚾️ For any throwing progression, the goal is to introduce a slightly higher stress to the arm, then let their body adapt to the new stress, making it their new baseline. Then, make another small increase in the stresses and repeating this process until they have returned to their normal Freqs, Intensities, and Volumes ⚾️ Too big of a Spike which could occur from both errors in being too aggressive or too conservative then having to ramp up to return to a game can be a cause a failed Return to Play Here’s a simple fix: Use A Radar Gun ✅ Instant Feedback for Athletes to stay in a Goal Velo Range ✅ Very digestible metric for Athletes to comprehend and understand ✅ Avoids the flaws at both ends of either overstressing or understressing the arm

WHIFFLE BALL BAT THROWS— GREAT DRILL FOR YOUNG PLAYERS… when working with young players at Hitters U we like to use drills with external focuses to get the players to understand & feel the proper way of moving without explaining it to them. These drills naturally get you to the place you need to be or you won’t be able to throw the whiffle bat through the middle. Fly open it will go in foul territory, have a big upper cut the bat will hit the ceiling. Hitters University

Some of today’s tricep work👇 JM Presses🚂 These are phenomenal for hitting long and medial head of triceps, leading to a more powerful mid range+ lockout in the bench press. I was a little rusty on these, but will progress them over the coming months as I prepare for my next meet! Great as a main mover or main accessory movement!

TYLRR HEINEMAN WITH FASTEST AVERAGE TRANSFER IN MLB This CS was .50 with a pop time of 1.86 & throwing velo of 75.8 Contrary to popular opinion, he does not catch the ball deep & take it up out of his glove. This is true of most all the better throwers, especially those with quick transfers. WHAT THE BEST DO 1) They make 1st contact close to full extension with the glove retreating into scap load as they are catching the pitch. This makes for a more rhythmic & tension free load. They do not catch the ball deep close to their chest protector. 2) The ball & glove separation occurs at the sternum or slightly below. 3) The ball is deflected/dropped/exchanged down out of the glove in to an open & supinated hand & not ripped up out out of the glove to a position behind the head.

If order to hit a big league fastball your brain needs to decide to pull the trigger roughly 25 feet from the ball reaching the plate…. In order to do that, your eyes must be oriented at a spot 25 feet to your left for a righty or 25 feet to your right if you are a lefty…. This begs the question what is the point of hitting off of a tee?…The body will never work the same vs a live ball…. Look how different Mike Trout looks when hitting off of a tee vs hitting a live ball…Watch his left arm and left shoulder do completely different things. The right forearm supinates vs an overhand pitch but it pronates vs the tee…. It’s a function of where the biceps inserts onto the radius. There isn’t a hitter on earth that will use the same swing mechanics off of a tee as they will vs an overhand pitch.

Kudos to Kevin Kisner getting the REAL issue when it comes to the modern golf ball… While discussing the ball Ray Floyd used to win the 1986 U.S. Open at Shinnecock, he correctly references SPIN more than SPEED. Yes, the modern ball flys WAY farther, but the easiest fix would be to mandate more spin on the ball. The worst part of the ball traveling insane distances is that, because of no real spin, the mishits do not go off line NEARLY as much as they used to. If the spin returned, hitting a 350 yard drive would carry with it the HUGE risk of a mishit heading for deep trouble, even bringing many out of bounds back into play. As a result, not only would hitting a driver create far more drama than it currently does, it would cause most players to self regulate by hitting 3-woods and irons off the tee to keep the ball in play. This would effectively solve the distance problem because it would cause significantly longer shots to be played into the greens. Please, USGA PGA of America PGA of AmericaTOUR The Masters The R&A THIS is the path!
