Here’s a pitching mechanics tip for you… The fastest way to solve a movement problem is by creating movement problems.

Ever heard the old saying… “You become what you believe?” If you say, “I suck.” You’re exactly right. You do suck. If you say, “I can’t do this” You’re exactly right. You just told yourself you can’t, so you can’t. Truth is… The kinetic chain starts with the brain!     Great news is… The […]

The greatest baseball speech you’ve probably never heard… Comes from one of the greatest men I’ve ever had the honor of meeting. His name? Tony Robichaux.
