🌀⚡️ Light Bat Trunk Whips: Flow From The Middle For Efficient Rotational Power ⚡️🌀

✔️ Unlock the secret to a powerful, effortless swing with this core-driven drill. By focusing on smooth, rotational movement and teaching your body to flow from the middle out, you’ll develop the kind of whip and barrel control that leads to cleaner, more explosive swings. Here’s how to tap into your core for efficient power and effortless speed.

👇🏼Here’s how it works👇🏼

1️⃣ Start in an Athletic Stance

• Feet anchored and balanced.

• Light bat held straight out in front of you.

• Upper body relaxed—no tension in your arms or shoulders.

2️⃣ Focus on Core Movement

• Forget about your arms. Instead, shift your core back and forth, creating a smooth, rotational movement.

• The goal is to feel your core whip your bat and arms. As you get comfortable, allow this movement to naturally whip the barrel.

3️⃣ Build Up Speed Gradually

• Start slow and controlled. Feel the connection between your core and the bat.

• Over time, increase your speed as the whip of the barrel becomes more natural.

• Your trunk whipping your arms and barrel is the tension free FLOW you want to feel.

✔️ Why This Drill Works:

• Proper Sequencing: It teaches your body to use the core as the primary engine for rotation, not your arms or shoulders.

• Efficient Power Transfer: By relaxing the upper body and focusing on the core, you maximize the transfer of energy through the bat, which leads to cleaner, quicker & more powerful swings.

• Barrel Awareness: The whipping action improves your feel for the barrel, helping you understand how to control and accelerate it through the zone.

• Proximal To Distal Principles: Building speed from the middle out is key to unlocking efficient rotational speed.

📝 Quick Tip: If you feel tension in your arms, reset. Tension in the upper body slows down your rotation and disrupts the flow.

📝 You can use a broomstick, waffle ball bat, PVC, etc. ideally you want the object to 15oz & under
