Be sure to follow @catcherscentral for more 🔥 content! Hitting is not one size fits all. You can’t fit hitters into a cookie cutter box. You have to understand how each individual moves and why. It’s not about fitting them into your model rather figuring out how to massage core principles into what they do. Here we have multiple different swing types, yet their are core things they all have in common. As hitters/coaches, we need to focus on what they all do the same to build a swing/philosophy. It’s very dangerous to focus on one thing that one hitter does that very few, if any, others do and build off that. That’s a recipe for disaster. Find the similarities, then figure out how to get your body to do it. After looking at the swings, can we find the similarity? Yes I am aware their are multiple, but let’s see if we can find the main one…. Be sure to follow to catch part 2 and the reveal! #catcherscentral #BeAnAthlete #catchersculture #defendthedish #CatchLikeAnAthlete #catching #catchertraining #baseball #catchers #coaching #baseballcoaching #dingers #baseballdrills #mlb #mlbhitters #hitting #homeruns #softball #softballcatchers #softballdrills #catchingdrills #beadjustable #Saturdaysarefortheswings #Sundayswingsession #throwemoutthursday

Posted @withregram • @catcherscentral I love this play. It really epitomizes this great position. It’s often times a thankless job until it’s not. These are the types of plays that get your team to follow you, the type of plays that lead to leadership. Effort in the little things gives you a platform in the big things. Something as simple as backing up the throw where you will never be thought of 99/100 times, but… that 1 time, makes all the difference. If they can trust you in the little moments, they will trust you when the lights are brightest. Effort never expires.

Greatness starts in your mind. It’s not just a sometimes thing, it’s an all the time thing. It’s a mentality that covers every fabric of your life. Greatness isn’t about achievement, is about preparation and intention where achievement becomes the bi-product. Greatness is a demand of yourself to the highest degree…it’s a lifestyle that then seeps into EVERYTHING you do both on and off the field. It’s about being the best coach/athlete you can be, the best husband/wife, father/mother, boyfriend/girlfriend, brother/sister, son/daughter, friend, student, co-worker or boss, it’s about being the best human you can be in all facets of life. Greatness doesn’t just do things to get by or to get through, greatness does things with a purpose and intention of being the best. So the question is… are you preparing to be great? Great stuff by the man @deionsanders #catcherscentral #BeAnAthlete #catchersculture #defendthedish #CatchLikeAnAthlete #catching #catchertraining #baseball #catchers #coaching #baseballcoaching #dingers #baseballdrills #mlb #mlbhitters #hitting #homeruns #softball #softballcatchers #softballdrills #catchingdrills #beadjustable #Saturdaysarefortheswings #Sundayswingsession #throwemoutthursday

Posted @withregram • @catcherscentral It was an honor getting to sit with my good friend @propelhitting and his coaches group. Iron sharpening iron being able sit with them, speak with them, listen and learn from them, and hear their stories. It’s about an investment into people, not about changing stats on a stat sheet… that’s a bi-product. It’s about understanding that sport is the vehicle/means but the mission is lasting eternal impact. As coaches/athletes/people, we must remember our identity is not made up from stats on a sheet of paper or comments from a post. Sport is just something you do. Our “successes” and “failures” don’t define us or make up who we are. It’s a part of your story but doesn’t define it’s ending. You are more than that. Regardless of what your career ends up being and what you “do” or “don’t do,” your story is still being written. #catcherscentral #BeAnAthlete #catchersculture #defendthedish #CatchLikeAnAthlete #catching #catchertraining #baseball #catchers #coaching #baseballcoaching #dingers #baseballdrills #mlb #mlbhitters #hitting #homeruns #softball #softballcatchers #softballdrills #catchingdrills #beadjustable #Saturdaysarefortheswings #Sundayswingsession #throwemoutthursday

Posted @withrepost • @catcherscentral Adjustability. All elite hitters have it. All elite hitters do it. Adjustability just “happens” in elite hitters as a physical reaction/adjustment to a visual response. The reason it just “happens”… 1. Elite hitters first and foremost are in a visual state. They aren’t focused on swing or anything physical. Their sole focus is on execution (seeing the ball and the seeing the pitcher, release point, etc.) not the process (mechanics, etc.). This allows their eyes to lead the swing which allows for the body to make its own adjustments without the hitter directly thinking about it…. It just “happens.” 2. They are in a position to allow adjustments to take place. Elite hitters get into elite positions. Without these positions, elite movements can’t take place. Without these movements, adjustability doesn’t happen. 3. Elite hitters practice being visual. Your brain is a muscle like anything else. You must train it to operate and work how you want it to. Muscle memory is a thing. Practice how you want to it to perform. Can you see you how these hitters create adjustability?

Smooth actions here from @maxstassi10 on this FB with some teeth on it (movement 😜) by @shoheiohtani. Stayed below, stayed patient, worked up with the palm, worked the angle. Bing - bang - boom 💥 - see ya!

Posted @withrepost • @catcherscentral “How you think has to change if you want how you are playing to change.” Such a great video by @kentuckymbb coach John Calipari that applies not just to sports but life. So much of the game of baseball and softball (and life in general) is centered around failure. So as athletes, our success on the field is really determined on our ability to handle, process, assess, evaluate, and move forward after failure. This is mental toughness in nutshell. This mental toughness manifests in action and body language. The battle of outward performance is fought internally. So does failure paralyze you or propel you? Does it weigh you down or drive you forward? Are you afraid of it or are you willing to go full steam ahead through it? Failure in this game and life are facts, they WILL happen. The question is… are mentally going to be tough enough to handle it… (Via @coach.miller) #catcherscentral #BeAnAthlete #catchersculture #defendthedish #CatchLikeAnAthlete #catching #catchertraining #baseball #catchers #coaching #baseballcoaching #dingers #baseballdrills #mlb #mlbhitters #hitting #homeruns #softball #softballcatchers #softballdrills #catchingdrills #beadjustable #Saturdaysarefortheswings #Sundayswingsession #throwemoutthursday

Posted @withrepost • @catcherscentral Our job as catchers is to present the pitch in way that looks appealing to umpires. This why we relentlessly practice movement patterns and our timing so we use all of our skills and tools in the tool box to present strikes and expand the strike zone for our pitchers. Make practice harder and more challenging than the game so the game becomes easy.
