The Two Phases of a Powerful Pitching Delivery ⚾💥

Your delivery has two crucial phases that determine your velocity, efficiency, and arm health:

1️⃣ Stride Phase:
• This is where you build momentum and power.
• A strong stride sets the stage for transferring energy into the throw.

2️⃣ Throwing Phase:
• This is where you unleash all the energy you’ve built up.

❌ Common Mistake:
Breaking your hands too early and going straight into the cocked position. This blends the two phases and limits your ability to separate, reducing your energy transfer and velocity.

✅ The Solution:
• When you break your hands, pause during your stride.
• The pause can vary in style (down or up with the arm), but the goal is to delay the throwing phase.
• As you approach landing, come into the cock position slightly late, keeping your shoulders back while your hips drive through.

This creates optimal hip-to-shoulder separation, maximizing energy transfer and giving you more time to build power. 🚀
