>>> I have to do an analysis of a baseball swing for my applied Kinesiology class. Do you still have the info from your project??? <<<

Hi Ricardo

Most all of the information obtained from my study is found in the articles and posts on site. I no longer have the data and notes from the study (1988 – 1992), only the summaries. – To correctly analyze the mechanics and muscles used in the swing, I would suggest that you first define the forces applied to the bat that would produce the bat’s trajectories. Once you understand the forces required to induce its angular displacement rate, you can better understand the mechanics and muscles that would most efficiently produce those forces.

If I can be of further assistance, feel free to ask.
