✔️ If you’re late on fastballs or feel like your barrel isn’t getting to the ball quickly enough, focus on how you’re using your lower half.
🔑 A key adjustment you can try out (this won’t work for everybody) is learning to fire your lower half backwards. Think of it like the push a jet gets when it’ s taking off. When you try to fire your lower half in the opposite direction your hips are going to stop QUICKLY. Which will create a momentum and energy to propel your upper body, hands and barrel forward more quickly and on time.
⭐️ This can help you create more bat speed without sacrificing direction and precision.
