If that stuff is interesting to you. I created a separate YT channel where I dive deep on the tactics, strategies and life lessons I’ve learned growing @OPPtraining Tune in here: @coachesconnect?si=32H6JiECCtJZPS7D" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@coachesconnec…

I love hitting development, s&c, pitching development and everything in-between. But after 10 years of talking about it, I found myself very passionate about the skills I’ve learned growing a brand, a training facility and managing a team.

I can actually turn it from a stronger position and carry force into the ball, rather than pushing the bat at it and losing depth. That feel helps me stay through the swing longer, keep the barrel working from behind and lets me run into the baseball.

I want to feel like the barrel is working behind my back because that keeps the move tight, connected, and powerful instead of throwing everything out in front too early. When the barrel stays behind me…

Eat. Watch old WSBB training montages. Sleep. Repeat. Those guys never trained alone and almost all of them credit their strength to the intense environment that was created by having multiple training partners.

Weekly practices and games are no longer an excuse. Every average player you know is doing that. Don’t be average, make the time and do the work to keep the needle moving.

I always wanted to feel like the barrel was working down my back. Even on takes, I wanted that feel instead of the barrel getting out in front of me. Your takes can tell you just as much as your swings, because they show where your body is and what move you’re really making.

Your training has to learn to put force behind you. Why? Because it then allows you to learn how to run into the ball. Bat speed happens behind you and when you try and put in front of you, especially off foam balls, you’ll wonder why you’re not successful.

If you see something else, take your comment somewhere else 🧑🏻‍🦯

You see how there wasn’t a crash on an off speed pitch? After seeing the pop of a curveball, I was able to hold the load for a tick longer allowing for adjustability. If I didn’t have that forward and back stretch, I’m crashing, breaking my bat and probably walking back mad.

@OPPtraining I checked out your website, and in the past, I could have sworn you had a program for out-of-state athletes. I’m only seeing in-house training sessions. I have a 12-year-old daughter whom I would like to train using only your instructional videos. Step-by-step process.

The S feel you can see if the arrow helps me stay back on back rear leg. When I feel like my body is making this S look, it feel like my head is so far over my back foot where’s my load will be a weightless forward move.

How I get to the ready at release position can look very different.. What can’t look different is the hand pivot !

Single leg drills are elite because they teach hitters to feel the rear leg being rode out rather than falling. In game swings, front foot will come down, but not until you decide to swing it down. That’s helps a hitter stay stacked, in control, and not get taken forward too soon

It can be really easy to chase weight room numbers but all of that means nothing if you can’t get the job done on the field. The whole reason we lift is for that.

This might hurt a few feelings (mine included) but no one in the stadium cares how much you squat, bench, or deadlift. Do you produce on the field? That is the bottom line.
