  • so Mike when you have those bands on

  • what do you feel that those bands are doing for you

  • prior to taking them off so what what is those bands what they help you doing

  • so when i put the bands on honestly what I feel

  • after each swing i have instant feedback

  • so if i fall off balance or my hands fall off the ball

  • its going to yank you back if im able to with that band on my hips or my chest

  • keep a firm front side and stay

  • through the ball it's not gonna pull me anywhere Im going to stay right in my

  • finish point through the ball if anything

  • in that process messes up im going to fall of balance and the bands going to pull me back

  • I really enjoy the instant feedback

  • do you feel that it is helping you with your core strength stabilisation

  • and your you fast twitch muscles when you take that band off

  • you feel stronger faster quicker more balanced

  • its working all the muscles I need to generate bat speed so basically

  • its functional training correct you're able to take live swings

  • basically weight lift in that situation and

  • then go ahead take them off and have even better results

  • yeah and thats that part that we need to

  • continue to work on back get the back

  • become that hitting IQ right you

  • Right. through the ball inside

  • when we hit keep that head down on the tee longer

  • so when we hit mike we wanna stay here instead of here

  • your now

  • better stay closed longer you understand

  • after the point contacts they through the ball don't open up

  • now there it is

  • feel that what adjustment did you make

  • right stay in the legs longer

  • now once we get to a point to contact we stay

  • here instead of here

  • stay closed longer better stay through Mike stay down now

  • great

  • you know what it is is relaxed but the thing is

  • once we start our swing we cant go here first get the hands moving let the hands trigger the hip

  • ok remember we talked about that

  • inside

  • attacking

  • ready

  • ok stay through the band

  • when Mike started with me

  • week ago with he was 88 89

  • then he took the bands off and he was boom 94 96

  • right now his swing is so efficient so compact that hes already there

  • through the band after the swing home way

  • hold the finish give me a two count down way

  • good just up

  • finish go over the top of ball slow-motion spirit operable

  • go all the way through sure you're finished Mike stay down stay down

  • that

  • three you need to be can you feel that that's where we need to finish my

  • finish okay so when you hit and the moment you make contact and that

  • front shoulder come out up or the head see

  • ball goes come away from the ball so you're losing that exit speed

  • right by

  • give me a practice one just like that again just to reiterate

  • that fine motor skill go over the top of the ball complete it all the way through

  • peaked out at 95 mph bat speed lets go red band hip

  • fine motor skill and what it feels like if they don't do that you put them into

  • a

  • raw they don't have that skill its going to be an un

  • productive swing that so I do a dry swing
