POTENT POWER SURGE!

All hitters want more power. Chicks dig it! So do Coaches and player evaluators...

Power translates to run production... Instant Offense!

Most know about being explosive with the hands... that Snap, Crackle, Pop to and through the ball...

"TORQUED UP!"
But there is more... First...All good hitters must be "grounded" with their feet...

Being grounded will help you to create torque which will create hand and bat speed to and through contact...

CREATING TORQUE: Take a look at the picture of Bryce Harper...

He has started to OPEN his front hip... but his hands are back... and, not only is his front shoulder still "pinned/locked" so is his BACK shoulder!

Do this right now... stand up like
you're at the plate... start to open your front hip while keeping your hands back and BOTH shoulders locked in... take your hand and feel your mid section... your core... bout at the belly button... feel that tension? That's TORQUE!

"HANDS ABOVE THE BALL"

TO THE BALL: Fire your hands inside the ball while rotating your lower body AND both shoulders!

LEVERAGE THE BALL: Keep your hands ABOVE the ball... the barrel should come UP and through the ball...

KEEP ROTATING: Make sure you keep rotating when releasing through the ball... both shoulders rotate completely...  hands finish high!

"FINISH: FULL SHOULDER ROTATION -  HANDS HIGH"
FINISH: Check out Buster Posey! The picture is a "clinic" on how to finish!

FINAL NOTE: Notice the legs... the quads... if you're serious about your game... get on, and stay on, a rigorous workout regimen to develop an EXPLOSIVE lower and upper body!!!
