Rotational Strength Secret

As a baseball player, a large goal is to increase rotational strength, speed and power and covert that newfound ability into your swing, throw and run. Many try to do this but are woefully unsuccessful in their attempt.

One reason is rotational development is only performed to the players strong side. For example right handed hitters only swing right handed (hundreds of times per day)and do not focus on balancing out rotational development in the gym. This is a monumental mistake.

All hitters and throwers should perform swings or throw for their non-hitting/throwing side. Your body wants to be in balance and if there is a strength or range of motion imbalance...and there is in 99% of all baseball players...the body will not be able to realize it's full potential...EVER!

So for every 100 swings or throw you make right handed (assuming your a righty) take 10 or so swing left handed and focus on specific drills that increase strength, speed, power and range of motion during your workouts.

These "opposite" swings or throws do not have to be done full speed or very hard. But taking th ebody through the motion will go a long way in athletic development and injury prevention.

One reason I decided to release Unbreakable Abs: The Ultimate Guide to Baseball-Specific Core Development was to teach players how to get the most out of their bodies, no matter how athletic, or unathletic, they are. To learn more about Unbreakable Abs click here.
