Hands/elbow moving to launch position

Posted by: ljhbatcoach () on Tue Oct 14 08:02:35 2008

Hi Jack,

I have been battling some parents who's kids are going to a specific trainer. The trainer is telling them that the kid's should not be "loading up" into the launch position they way you teach. The trainer is having the kids keep their hands and feet still until they initiate the swing. I've tried explaining that their kids are losing quite a bit of batspeed and power, but they don't seem to understand that. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Larry
