“When you allow your children to grow up it’s a direct, direct reflection of your parenting. If you hover over them all the time and they can’t work through problems, they’re going to have some issues. You’ve got to let them work through problems because they’re working through the things you’ve instilled in them,” Dawn Staley Let them learn.

@LAtlasCoaching She actually argued with me about it. Like why do I have to do this with my left arm? I didn’t do this with my right arm. I said honey- your right arm didn’t need it… The left one does 😆

When you gonna write a book. For real. I’ll be your first testimony as a coach and instructor who has seen the fruits of your labor in no less than 8 athletes in the last year alone. Ladies…if you are in HS and not throwing AT LEAST 60-65 MPH (or more), and doing so correctly you need to take a weekend off and get to Pittsburgh. That weekend will pay off every weekend thereafter!

In from Ohio last week was @chloe_taynor - just an 8th grader but already has a national reputation as a 2-way talent for @Magic_Gold_2030 Chloe added velocity while dropping relative stress on her elbow. We are thrilled to have her as one of our PVS athletes helping keep her healthy and strong with our App as she enters high school next year!!!! Great stuff Chloe !! Her before and after in the 🎥 below illustrates the important topic of arm lay back. Timing and “Layback" in throwing refers to a key biomechanical position in overhand throwing mechanics. The term describes the moment when the throwing arm reaches “maximum external rotation” just before acceleration and release. This is a major problem in Softball, because the sequencing of the act of throwing is often incorrect Ideally, we want The elbow up/near shoulder height. You will see the The forearm and hand "lay back" behind the body (the ball points somewhat backward or away from the target). At this point the shoulder is in extreme external rotation (the upper arm rotates outward), creating a stretched, loaded position in the shoulder and arm muscles/tendons. Layback acts like stretching a rubber band or "cocking" the arm — it stores elastic energy. When the body rotates forward (hips and torso leading), the arm rapidly internally rotates and whips through, generating much higher velocity and power. Better layback often leads to harder, more efficient throws with less arm strain (when mechanics are sound). This is something we test every girl for at the beginning of our sessions and at the end. Layback Matters in Softball Throwing Because it ▪️Increases throwing velocity. Elite throwers show significant layback to maximize the "whip" effect. ▪️Improves efficiency. When proper body sequencing is present hips → torso → shoulder → the arm produces layback naturally without forcing the arm alone. ▪️Reduces injury risk. Good / well timed layback comes from whole-body drive rather than arm-only effort. @PrepSoftball @bxrosenberg @KaylaLombardo11 @ExtraInningSB @LineDsoftball @YAthletesF @tagupSoftball @TopPreps @Sun_Dragon1 @TheRuse8 @P413Sports @SBRRetweets @BREAL412 @los_stuff

The harder you try in games... the worse you hit. That's not a talent problem. That's a trust problem. Your swing probably works. Stop judging every little thing mid-at-bat and just play. -> You can train this. And no, you won’t be able to achieve this 100% of the time. We are human. But, we can significantly improve it. -> When training, and you feel yourself criticizing yourself way too much, getting stiff and forcing everything, step out. Walk away. Reset. Nothing good is gonna come from you forcing. Reset. Change your thought process. Reset your goal and let yourself play the game. Let it happen. Let it flow. Trust your work. Making adjustments mid round / at bat and criticizing yourself is DIFFERENT. Adjusting is productive. Criticizing is not. Big difference. Elite hitters can adjust without hammering themselves. Can you get better at this? Bet you can. Go try. *Make sure you’re following for more on ‘turning BP hitters into game hitters’*

As a teacher, this is what I want to say to SOME parents: Stop making excuses for your kids. STOP IT. Teach them to earn things, not demand things. Hold them to a higher standard. Challenge them. That way, when I try to challenge them, they’ll know we both expect it.

Barrel up a ball right at someone? Yeah, that sucks, but that’s how it goes sometimes. Bloop one over the 2nd baseman for a hit? Yeah, not ideal, but that’s how it goes sometimes. Crush one that should’ve been way out, but the stupid wind pushed it back in for a fly out? Yeah, that sucks, but that’s how it goes sometimes. Get fooled on a pitch and roll one over in the 6 hole for an infield hit? Yeah, not ideal, but that’s how it goes sometimes. *Point* 👇🏼 Don’t get emotionally too high or too low, the game usually evens itself out. Sometimes you smash, but get bad results, Sometimes you suck, but get great results. THAT’S HOW IT GOES SOMETIMES! #BaseballTruth
