Thread: Bat Speed vs. Barrel Accuracy — Understanding the Balance for Higher Offensive  Impact ⚡️👇🏼

“Hold the wall”

Being able to hold the hips posterior while moving forward creates space for the barrel to launch with good direction.

Maintaining space is one of the biggest factors to being able to pull the ball with back spin.

More space = Better angles = Better Ball Flight

Why “deciding” to swing is hurting hitters. 👇🏻

- Late timing
- Defensive swings
- Slow swings
- Increased chase rates

Plan to swing. Decide to take.

It is quicker to shut it down than it is to start it up.

[Flips Baseball @FlipsBSB]

Hitting is so much more mental than young hitters think it is.

Once you get your swing to a point where it is solid, you MUST train beyond the swing.

There are plenty of bad swings that create results.

And there are plenty of good swings that struggle.

Mentality separates.

Control the load….. then fire💥

Being on time isn’t necessarily about starting early. It’s more about controlling your body until launch.

2 different load styles.
Both under control in ➡️ violent out.

The most surefire way to become a better hitter is simple.

Confidence and beliefs is visible. Watch high level college & pro guys get into the box.

They OWN the batters box.

3 reasons your BP swing is better than your game swing:

1. Static Training - Challenge yourself
2. Trying to Hard - Smooth Wins
3. Thinking too Much - Hunt.

These 3 things are some of the biggest limiters for guys that rake in practice and struggle in games.

Posture usually tells the story for hitters.

[Flips Baseball @FlipsBSB]

Drills create feels, not fixes.

[Flips Baseball @FlipsBSB]

Drills are just a small part of hitting development.

Don’t just do drills to do them.

Drills build feel and understanding about your swing.

Drills are just a small section on the highway to you becoming your own best coach.

The secret to getting good at anything:

Do the boring stuff...

Every.
Single.
Day.

[Flips Baseball @FlipsBSB]

Bat speed is awesome when it is:
✅ Smooth
✅ Consistent
✅ On the Barrel

Bat speed is ineffective when it is:
❌ Muscled Up
❌ Stiff

Bat speed is built through clean movement patterns.

Build clean bat speed for actual game results……which should be the goal.

Want to know the “secret” to becoming a better hitter?

Consistency. Routines. Confidence.

Everybody wants a “secret hack” to become a better hitter, but the reality is that better hitters trust what they are doing and don’t go searching for “hacks”.

Development takes time.

[Flips Baseball @FlipsBSB]

Good or Bad…..

Everybody you meet has something to say about you.

Whether it’s recruiting, school, community, social media. People talk.

How you interact with others matters.

What will they say about you? That matters too.
