Hitting Performance Coach CJ Farias talking through front-side control and how the barrel gets delivered through the zone.
In high-level rotational patterns, timing is not just about being early or late to the baseball. It is also about the timing of the sequence.
The hips need to create space, but the torso’s ability to fight rotation early is what helps keep that sequence clean. That separation is where the hitter can create torque and still give the barrel room to work through the zone.
When the shoulder becomes the first thing to create movement, the swing can get pulled around the ball. When the hips create the initial space and the upper half follows, the hitter has a better chance to stay connected, stay through the middle of the field, and deliver the barrel without losing direction too early.
Hitting Performance Coach CJ Farias talking through the process of making an adjustment in the cage.
A common mistake we see with athletes when making adjustments is trying to slowly ease into it or only dip their toes into the change. A lot of times, that does not create enough of a difference for the athlete to actually feel what needs to change.
In those moments, we will encourage athletes to go headfirst into the adjustment so they can better understand the feel we are trying to create.
More often than not, over-adjusting can be beneficial. It gives the athlete a chance to appreciate both sides of the spectrum, then work back toward a more neutral area.
In this type of training environment, the result of every single swing is not the main focus. The focus is committing to the adjustment, gathering feedback, and using those reps to better understand what the right adjustment needs to be.
