WHY The LOWER BODY is CRUCIAL in Pitching Mechanics | MECHANICAL ANALYSIS

Today’s Analysis Preview will feature a deep dive into the importance of a Pitcher's LOWER HALF in the Mechanics of the Pitching Delivery. We’ll be discussing some major ripple effect breakdowns that can occur if we, as Pitchers, don’t efficiently use the energy of the ground in our loading phase. We’ll be pulling in Mechanical Comparisons to the likes of Pittsburgh Pirates RHP Jared Jones as well as St. Louis Cardinals All-Star Closer Ryan Helsley to give us an idea of what these movements look like in real time.

Now some "Shop Talk" relating to The Drive Leg Loading Phase

Drive Phase Stride Length

Your load is a direct correlation to your stride. If your load is compromised odds are the stride is going to be compromised. The stride is simply an opportunity to create space, buy time for the throwing arm to do it’s thing, and to give your hips enough time to initiate rotation prior to anchoring down.

Acceleration Down the Slope

We can pick up energy by accelerating our bodies down into our block pretty easily BUT we can pickup even more potential energy to block n send up the chain IF we use our loading phase as a means to accelerate. Which leads us into the next piece..

Alignment to Block

The space created will also help with your alignment/posture upon anchoring down. It goes back to the buying time concept for your body to align in the most organized way to block/receive energy. If this process is cut off due to suboptimal loading then we’re not going to be able to get our alignment to organically block the forces against the lead leg. CLEAR DA HIPS!

🚨PLEASE UNDERSTAND🚨 that Loading the Drive Leg doesn’t mean completely shifting all weight back n leaving weight back for the entirety of the drive phase.. sure there’s components that we can implement that shift our weight back initially but once the load is loaded then we need to transfer that load by snapping our hips into rotation prior to anchoring down.. this aligns us to go get our release.. like Jones is doing in this video clip.

Also, there’s plenty of guys who don’t load great n still produce extremely high power output.. there’s NOT MANY dudes who can do it so might as well check all the boxes needing checks to put yourself in the best possible position to play this game for a long time!
