The Pro Pitching Institute: Unleashing Your Pitching Power: The Kinetic Chain

 

Optimal Lower Body Loading

Positioning the “back knee behind your back foot”
during the bent-knee stance creates a powerful coil, storing elastic potential
energy, which is the very first and most potent link in the kinetic chain.

Efficient Linear Momentum Generation

The subsequent “leg movement” (the drive off the
loaded back leg) efficiently translates this stored energy into linear
momentum, propelling the body powerfully towards the target.

Hip-Driven Rotation

The front foot’s positioning facilitates powerful and
sequential hip rotation, ensures the larger, slower segments initiate the
rotational transfer of energy.

Glove Arm as an Accelerator

The lower body movement prompts your glove arm to initiate the
throwing action, creating a counter-rotation that rapidly accelerates the torso
and efficiently transfers energy to the throwing arm.

Synergistic Energy Transfer

Linear momentum from the stride, rotational energy from the
hips and core, all combine to maximize the energy transferred to the throwing
arm, creating a powerful “whip.”

Pitch Smart

The highly efficient and synchronized energy transfer achieved
by this footwork, forces are consistently channeled directly towards the target
and predictability leads to “uncanny regularity” in ball location.

We’re so confident in our instructions that, if we can’t
help you get the ball to your target, via live or zoom instruction, your
instruction is FREE, no questions asked.
