The Athletic Hitter is for any player looking to increase their power numbers and batting average. An Athletic Hitter has a strong core and has worked hard and smart to become more explosive at the plate by recruiting fast twitch muscle fiber for increased bat speed. Athletic Hitters have good, efficient swing mechanics. The Athletic Hitter will see the ball longer and react quicker which ultimately translates into a higher batting average.
POWER = STRENGTH + SPEED + MECHANICS
Goals of the Class:
- Increase functional strength & speed = explosive power
- Sport specific power training for full neural recruitment
- Increase and/or maximize fast twitch muscle use
- Be in better shape heading into your baseball season
- Develop proper Hitting Mechanic: Hand path & torque
