If perfect mechanics were enough…
they wouldn’t disappear in games.

⚾ Skill
⚾ Athleticism
⚾ Movement adaptability
Build the complete athlete.

Train the flow from one movement pattern to the next for it is the spare between athletic positions that suffers from the most energy leaks
Arresting energy leaks while transitioning results in more efficient and powerful kinetic energy transfer
