Hitters who R sitting on a pitch R not guessing. They R using empirical data 2 make decisions.Often it’s about sitting hard or soft 2 increase their chances of being on time. Paul Phillips of SportsSense says that when U get the pitch U are sitting on,it appears bigger & slower.

An aerobic base is definitely important for baseball players. Aerobic proficiency is among the most easily preserved fitness qualities, though. Build it and then do just enough to maintain it; you don't have to be elite...just good enough for facilitate recovery benefits.

This athlete was having a hard time disassociating. He was tightening his core early so pelvis was opening upper body together. Cue here was to relax core, turn pelvis & keep the ball still. I’ll post before video & baseball transition video in thread. @elite_baseball

How an athlete handles the 20 hours outside their sport is really what determines their success during the time spent training. Poor rest, nutrition, hydration can’t be overcome with just hard work.

The statistical validation for 1st pitch strikes is irrefutable... 92.7% of first pitch strikes lead to an out or strike one; so that means that less than 8% of first pitch strikes become hits. 69% of strikeouts start with first pitch strikes. MORE: WeinsteinBaseball.com/Strike…
