What does “run to a spot” look like from the fielder’s POV?
This clip was found on IG from Jaredlovessports. Shows what you should be seeing as you look back and forth from the ball to the spot where you are headed.
If you look at the ball the entire time you are way too slow!

⚾️Arm care and recovery nutrition for baseball players is essential for both performance and injury prevention, especially for pitchers and throwing positions.

-Hydration: Minerals before/during training
-Leucine Rich protein : Eggs, dairy, steak, beef, fish and chicken
-Antioxidants: berries, pomegranate and cherries
-Anti-inflammatory fats: walnuts, avocado and salmon
-Extra Sleep: 7-10 hours
-Quality carbs: potatoes, rice, fruit, oats
-Supplements: whey protein, magnesium, creatine monohydrate, vitamin D3 and probiotics

Have a plan. Be consistent. Recovery is a 24 hour process. 🔥

Student Athlete, “I’m always sore and tired. I can’t figure out why.”

Me, “Your nutrition consists of Chick-fil-A , protein bars, Celsius, zero fruits and veggies, no breakfast and you’re up till midnight most nights per your intake forms.”

Athlete, “It’s hard to eat meals, I’m up late because I have school work.”

Me, “Show me your screen time from this week? You’re averaging 5 hours on TikTok alone.

Why can’t you replace screen time with school work so you can get the sleep you need to gain the energy you don’t have to get stronger like you said you wanted?

Additionally, why aren’t you eating the 3-5 meals we discussed with the fruits, veggies and proteins you agreed to consume when you set your goals this year? You would be less sore if you had more nutrients in your body especially around training!”

Athlete 🦗🦗

This applies to adults too. You HAVE time for what you prioritize.

There’s 168 hours in a week.

You have time for meal prep and homework if you log off social media.

You have time to sleep 7-9 hours if you put down your phone and set your schedule.

Your focus and habits in youth dictate your direction in life and position as an adult. You won’t be a student athlete forever.

Make healthy choices NOW!

You know I’m right 💪

Almost game time 🔴⚡️

Who has your favorite walk-up song?

[Coach Steinman @coach_steinman]

Three different plays moving right of center off the second-bounce short hop:

• Rake through backhand
• One handed come & get
• On the run backhand

Training the eyes to track the hop and the feet to move with intent so we can finish plays consistently. Reps with purpose.
