🔥 The Pelvic Rotation around the Front Hip is a Combo of Closed Chain Hip IR and Horizontal Adduction

⛽️ This is rotation is Primarily accelerated by the abrupt stop by the lead leg sending the force up the Femur and into that hip which aids in spinning the pelvis

🛑 This motion is decelerated or restricted by the Front Side Glute Max, Glute Med, and Deep 6. Structural Impingement of the Hip and Oblique Activation Above The Pelvis may also act as a stopping force of this rotation.

THE PROBLEM👇

❌Most hip mobilization techniques don’t have enough leverage and aren’t strong enough to make quick changes

🔓 I really like these 3 high leverage techniques to use body weight and higher forces to add mobility

🔥 Make sure everyone is on the same page with what the athlete needs in their body/delivery before implementing (Ex: If an athlete is hyper mobile in this movement already, it is unlikely you want to mobilize this. You need to hit the point of stiffness to optimally transfer the force)

🛑 If You Feel a pinch in the groin at the bottom of each rep, you are just impinging the front of your hip. Address that first then resume

Want to Throw Hard? Check Your Grip.

One quick tip to throw harder is to check your grip.

This is something that I notice in myself too.

When I grip the ball really hard, my arm action actually shortens because my forearm contracts and doesn't go into full relaxation.

When I throw at my hardest, it's just a relaxed swing, and then I'm throwing.

But when I get a little tense, maybe from anxiety in a game or something else happening, I feel my grip starts to get really tight.

Then my arm action shortens, and I actually start throwing a lot slower.

If you're someone who gets performance anxiety in games and you're starting to throw slower, just check your grip.

Make sure it's a loose grip so your arm action stays relaxed and works smoothly.

If you're tense and your forearm is tightened up, it can shorten your arm action and make you throw slower.

[KNCT Athletics @KNCTathletics]

So what actually is separation? Is it conscious oppositional movement of the pelvis and torso? Is it holding it for longer? Separation is just the result of the pelvis going first and the trunk resisting just long enough to create tension.

🚨 Willie Mays’ Hitting Advice

• Relax the bat in your hands
• Be aware of your forearm tension
• Grip tightens only when you swing

⭐️ A relaxed bat explodes faster than a tense one. Stay loose & fire!

Stop Creating Fake Hip-to-Shoulder Separation.

One of the biggest mistakes I see pitchers make is how they think about hip to shoulder separation.

They think that as long as their hips are through and their shoulder is back, they're creating elite hip to shoulder separation.

But that's actually not the case.

What you really want to think about is the separation between your pelvis and your ribcage.

This is something I did naturally when I was throwing in the mid to upper 90s.

But during my recent training, I realized I was getting lazy and wasn't creating true hip to shoulder separation between my pelvis and my ribcage.

Instead, I was creating fake hip to shoulder separation.

My hips were through, but my shoulder was just staying back.

If you try both positions, you'll feel a massive difference in the tension that's created through your midsection.

One thing you can look at in your mechanics is whether you're getting your pelvis open while keeping your ribcage closed.

Or are both moving at the same time while you're simply keeping your shoulder back and creating fake hip to shoulder separation.

🚨 Most pitchers are chasing hip-to-shoulder separation… without understanding what actually creates it.

Hip-to-shoulder separation isn’t something you force.

It’s the result of an efficient kinetic chain.

When your lower body creates momentum and your hips rotate at the right time, your shoulders naturally stay back—storing elastic energy that transfers into the baseball.

Get it right and you’ll:
⚾ Throw harder.
⚾ Reduce arm stress.
⚾ Create effortless velocity.

Get it wrong, and you’ll leak energy before it ever reaches the ball.

Stop copying positions.

Start understanding the movement that creates them.

The #1 Cue to Get Into Your Back Glute.

I'm sure you've been told to get into your back glute.

When I was first told this, I had no clue what it actually meant.

How do you get into your back glute?

There's one simple cue that can help you get into your back glute instead of your quad.

One big mistake a lot of pitchers make is diving into the quad because they're trying to push off or because they haven't ingrained the right movement patterns.

A simple cue is to pinch your back hip.

There's a crease between your leg and your midsection that you should be able to pinch.

If you have a pen, you should be able to hold it in that crease without it falling.

If you can do that during your pitching delivery, you'll know you're getting into your back glute.

The feel is simple.

Leg lift, pinch.

Leg lift, pinch.

You'll notice that when you pinch your back hip, you naturally get into a position where you're not diving into your quad.

Without even thinking about it, you'll also be loading more into your back glute.

If you struggle to throw strikes, this might be why.

One of the things pulling my glove side was causing me to do was become extremely rotational.

When you're extremely rotational, it becomes really hard to command because your arm comes around and you have a very small window to release the ball for it to be a strike.

If you're moving like this, it's much harder to throw at a target than if you're moving straight through the target.

When you're moving through the target, you have much more time to release the ball and it'll still be relatively in the strike zone.

Whenever I've thrown the most strikes, it's always been by moving through the target and through the catcher rather than being rotational and throwing at the target.

🔥 Most pitchers are taught the WRONG glove-side mechanics…

❌ Pull the glove
✅ Tuck the glove

Research has shown that glove-side pulling is more common in lower-velocity pitchers and is linked to arm drag—a major contributor to velocity loss and increased arm stress.

Elite throwers do something different.

They turn the glove over, stabilize the front side, and tuck the glove down to create a powerful rotational anchor. This allows the hips and trunk to transfer energy efficiently into the ball for:

⚡ More Velocity
⚡ Better Energy Transfer
⚡ Less Arm Stress
⚡ Improved Command

The problem is most pitchers don’t know if their glove-side mechanics are helping or hurting them.

Your wrist never moves when throwing a curveball. Lock it in position and keep it there through the entire motion.
