As your back leg drives through, your front leg becomes a stabilizer, ensuring that you don’t lunge or over-rotate, which could lead to weak contact or missing the ball entirely.😬 When your legs are properly engaged, they act like springs, coiling and uncoiling as you initiate the swing. If your legs aren’t strong and connected to the ground, you’ll lose out on

Your legs! Your pitches are missing your legs! You can have front side resistance, but if you don’t have drag leg drive, you aren’t resisting any force. You can have a good drag leg drive, but if your front side gives, you don’t have speed, leverage or torque either! Grab yourself a yoga ball, and feel your knees SQUEEZE!

Matt Starkman PT, DPT, CSCS on Instagram: "Fixing your lead leg block starts with improving your ability to rotate around your front side leg.

Most pitchers are told the front leg creates hip power. That belief is costing you velocity. ❌ Front-leg driven hip rotation Late rotation. Energy loss.
