There's no rotation in swinging...
What the heck does that mean?
Every hitter I've ever seen rotates!
Well in today's lesson, we're going to go over why the focus on rotation is killing your swing, how and why you don't need to focus on rotation...
... so you can take the energy out of your body an unload your energy into the bat!

"Baseball Instruction"
• Why there's No Rotatio...
All 3 MLB players you showed rotated their hips more than you are suggesting. Hips, then hands.
I will post this on your other comment as well to help with the understanding. There's a lot to the swing that can't all be covered in one video, but as stated in the "No Rotation" video, it's physically impossible to swing a bat at a certain speed without an efficient kinematic sequence. That sequence being, hips, shoulders, arms, and hands... for simple terms. Therefore if we are swinging at a high enough speed, that sequence has to be in order. The reason you're not seeing my hips as open as the big league swings is simply because I'm not swinging at full speed for these videos... in my full speed swings, my hips are wide open verbatim the big league swings... I've trained many players, including MLB players, in the same manner as we teach in our instruction and for a lot of players, not all, it is highly beneficial to take away focus from the hips as they will fire to support speed... again it being impossible to swing at a certain speed without firing the hips.... which is one of the main points of the "No Rotation" lesson.
So if we're looking at what's happening on camera, yes, the kinematic sequence of the swing starting with the hips is absolutely correct. Yet, if we're talking about teaching, feel vs. real is a huge part of making sure students are executing a swing that produces results.
Many of my students claim to feel like their swinging all arms, however that's a feel... we've actually gone as far as strapping them to a K-Vest, which measures the kinematic sequence, and all of my students tested, are in the top percentile of how the body fires. Feel versus what's actually happening is a very important thing to understand when it comes to practical application.
Hope this helps out with some understanding! Thanks again for the comment!
@@ProSpeedBaseball i will have to try it to get the feel. Your swing looks good no doubt. I was just wondering about that pivot. Thanks for the breakdown.
@@ProSpeedBaseball what MLB players have you trained 🤔
Everyone you showed had a bent elbow at contact… and every one had complete shoulder turn…
So the bonus is not 100% free? Just the first minute is 100% free, then it stops.
alex bregman uses this same philosophy
Great vid💯
😂😂😂 I am really hopeful that our opponent coaching staffs will buy into this gibberish!
I watch Ruth and Griffey Jr and it seems like they rotate around. Ruth’s shoulders were fully turned after his swing
@Mason Norris Joe Morgan was like 160 pounds and was a power hitter. Mel Ott was 150 and was a massive home run hitter. They arm barred to hit with power. Ruth also but his went an extra 100’ due to his size.
@Mason Norris What does them being large have to do with rotating in the swing or “getting away with it”? Generating more torque in the swing through rotation would be something a smaller guy would be more inclined to do to generate more power
@Mason Norris gotcha… makes sense man. Thanks for the clarification.
@Mason Norris why would you ever learn something wrong
Why would you want to hit the tee's??? I thought the objective was to hit the ball 🤔 if you're hitting the tee then that means you're hitting the bottom of the ball thus hitting pop ups.... and also anybody can hit good off of a tee, show us you hitting good of of live or machine pitching 🤔
yeah i don't know what you're talking about, it's not clear. and also the title is click bait.
Wrong
Not to be that guy but that was a waste of time...
How is this guy still making videos? No rotation in swing? You’re swinging down and everything you’re saying the big leaguers do the complete opposite of what you do. What a joke
Well this is snake oil you really shouldn't make videos and when you're showing where your hands are when not rotated vs rotated you're not even lined up on the tee you don't want to make contact with the ball when it's that far in on your hands.
please quit making videos!
