💢Banded Feels
▪️Back Hip Banded- Feel the back hip pulled into its coil or “corner of back hip.” Hold the corner as long as possible.
▪️Front Shoulder Banded- Resist against the band pulling the front shoulder out. Big core engagement.

💢Farm Board Slide Outs
Using the Farm Board to focus on a couple things:
▪️Feeling a stretch from the back hip as we slide out to launch. Loading into the back corner of the hip, not through the quad. (1/3)

💢 Lead Arm Plyo Throws
✅ Sequencing
✅ Direction
I really like a number of “throw drills” for their immediate visual feedback of our direction in our turn. The plyo balls add a little bit of extra weight to help incorporate intent and body awareness.

Closed Angle Machine Work
One of the benefits of the setup of this drill is the visual it creates of an alley or lane back through the middle. This is our target 🎯
✅ Hold Frontside
✅ Stay in Lane

Only 3️⃣ days until Eric Jones can make another run at the home run crown 👑

When a player is having trouble feeling their core engage in their swing, I'll often use this quick exercise to help build a more conscious feel of the core firing. Very similar to a Pallof Press.
✅ Body Awareness
✅ Core Engaged
✅ Reciprocal Movement
