Lesson 2: Mechanics That Matter
   
|
Back to School
The buzz lately is that - maybe - we're all overteaching. We may be making the act of pitching far too complicated. In efforts to simplify the process we have ideas such as 'teach/non-teach' and "the throwing side belongs to the pitcher, the glove side belongs to the coach". While we like the notion of reducing instruction to essentials, there is some disagreement about what matters and what doesn't. Here's the WebBall take on this... You first need to understand what good mechanics should look like and feel like - in some detail. Then you can decide what key instants in the throw most matter. (This part of the process should go beyond subjective observation - radar measurements, slow motion video, even motion capture.) When that's done, then you can decide what to correct and what to disregard.  Remainder of this page including detailed instruction available to Team Players only. Please login or join.
