At impact you want straight elbows. It is near impossible to get your back elbow all the way straight but at impact it should be 170 degrees then become straight just after impact. If you were chopping down the tree the way you said not to do is actually what you want to do to get the most bat speed. Although in a baseball you do not want the Barrell to get away from you originally a straight arm release or extention of the bat is critical during contact
@@jimmykilcomons6438 that’s wrong
@@hannahzhou1920 I see both as being strong. Yes williams arms were almost completely straight at impact. So why is that? Genuine question
The batting tip that helped me the most as a young hitter many years ago was to start my swing with the bat lying on top of my shoulder. The swing flows perfectly from this position. Young hitters shouldn't have to think of too much while at bat. Starting from the optimum position cures a lot of ills in the swing without having to think about mechanics while hitting. Try it and you'll be amazed at how simple and effective this tip is.
Thanks for the explanation and the drill, I will definitely try the drill.
Thank you! Great tips, well-explained.
woah! this was actually super helpful! i don’t have a foam roller so i can’t do the drill but him explaining everything really helped!!
I’ve seen a lot of your videos but what I find funny is almost never see any negative comments because your stuff works !
Thank you so much! I take pride in delivering the truth and showing what high-level players actually do on the field, whether it's hitting, throwing, fielding, etc. I appreciate the support!
Really good stuff!
Well done. I am a hitting coach and I am critical of other you tube coaches and their micro managing hitting instructions which are ridiculous. Keeping it simple is the key. Well done!
Great Video that helped a lot
Really really like the foam roller idea. I am also very appreciative of how you break it down because this is also how I coach. This makes it easier for me to explain to players 9-10yr old.
Great video bro
Thanks it’s helpful
Great explanation. I’ll bet there are a lot of people like me who always were told to extend my arms, but weren’t told at what point to extend them.
Great video. Thank you for sharing. My 12 y/o son really needed to see this.
This is golden information. Bookmarked this so I remember to maintain and how to maintain a short swing and give myself as much room for error as possible as a hitter regardless if im late or early on a pitch. This will definitely reduce strikeouts since i tend to get alittle long at times. Thank you!
Boom! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Congrats on 100K subscribers, coach!
Nice video. Very clear instructions and great camera angles. Thank you.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you so much, your videos really help me
So glad to hear that! You're welcome!
Great video lots of information!!
Thank you, Christina!
Thanks Coach Justin!
You're welcome, Reid!
Thx coach Justin, this is a good idea for me to work on
You're welcome!!
Very helpful
Thanks for the advice I’ve been hitting everything to left
Very good 👍
Great stuff as usual
Thank you, I appreciate it!
Great drill with foam roller..for inside ball..I coach softball girls at Lake Wales high school..we get outside ball a lot..many young hitters this year
COACH YOU ARE MASTER YODA!!!!
Good video. I like calling it turning the barrel and staying inside. Which gives the batter a bigger hitting window. Even if batter is a little late he's got a chance to hit the ball still. I still see coach's teaching swing down on the ball which is a push swing and mainly a upper body swing.
I love these drills with instant feed back. My 10 year old love doing drills but can develop bad habits if I don’t watch every swing. These types of drills he can do on his own and know when what he is doing is not correct. Love it keep up the good work.
Glad to hear you like this one Josh! Thanks for watching!
Great, you are the best coach Justin. I wish you were my coach
BAHAAHAHAHAJAK PERIOD
Hey, Justin do you reckon you could go through a workout routine for athletic performance in one of your future videos?
Great vid bro
Thanks man!
Nice video
I’m going to use the foam roller drill today! Just amazing 💪💪💪💪
AWESOME! Try it out and let me know what you think! 👍
Great video, Coach! In your video you ask for suggestions about your next video. I coach recreational youth baseball (Little League). I've learned a lot about mechanics from your videos and others on UA-cam. The instruction I've been searching for recently is how to coach "responding to disappointment." What can I, as a coach, do or say to a young player (age 7-12) who pouts (or throws a temper tantrum, or otherwise responds negatively) after striking out, being put out, struggling to find the strike zone, or making an error. I always emphasize attitude and effort, but some of my most talented players struggle to keep their heads in the game and MOVE ON after disappointment. Thank you!
Great video
So glad to hear you enjoyed the video! 🙏🏼
Nice video bro I like it
Thanks Max!!
This is a great video! It's easy to watch and talk about but the batter them shelf may think they are doing it correct. A great tool so the batter understands what they are doing wrong is use the swingrail.
Wow 💯
Dude i loved this video man. You talked about staying in and hitting the inside corner to get the great hits. And it was very helpful and now i can use that drill to practice with my brother. So great video good job and keep up the great work.
Great video. Have you made a video on how you grip the bat? Lining up knuckles feels uncomfortable.
Thanks John! I haven't made a video on that yet, but I will! I like the box grip. For a right-handed hitter, line up your right hand door knocking knuckles with your left hand's second knuckles!
Coach, on your stay inside drill with the foam roller. Is the foam roller that you are using, a 4' x 8" size? Thanks
Hi, my son plays for Basic high school in Henderson, Nevada. He uses a Easton Mako bat. The bat is not old, and it seems like it has never had any pop to it. As you know the bat was very expensive, but I want him to have the best chance at the plate. Seems now the Makos are already the bat of the past. What bat would you recommend I get for him in 2018 that has the most pop. Also a video on why little league, club ball, and high school baseball went away from wood bats to metal bb core baseball bats. I used wood through my days in little league, and high school. Why did they change this? Its also more dangerous for the pitcher's having that ball drilled at them from these composite bats. Sorry for the long comment. Love your videos
Another great video how about a defensive get in front of ground balls and how to judge fly balls for ideas to give the kids I coach
Thank you! I'll make more videos on infield and outfield soon, but in the meantime, I think these videos will REALLY help you and the kids you coach!

Ultimate Baseball Training thanks coach these are really helpful
VERY helpful! I've been trying to practice not hitting directly to shortstop, I think I'm either swinging too early or I'm not getting under the ball enough. I'm going to try this drill out tomorrow and see if I can hit it for a double or triple! Great video as usual Coach Justin!
Glad to gear it was helpful! Yes, practice the drill and get lots of reps. Get used to staying inside the ball and you'll no longer hit as many ground balls to the SS.
@@jimmykilcomons6438 yea. I’m trying to understand this at the moment. My son feels power both ways as do I. But he doesn’t have racing elbow when he remains connected the entire time. The arms releasing seems
More natural but who knows. Who do you study with or do you coach hitting?
I think im about to break my voodo black drop 3 bat if i continue swinging bad.
THATS HOW FRUSTRATED I AM.
Hey Justin Id love to see a detailed video about the use of hands in a swing. With all the new age thought of body angle, and hip drive. I feel like hands are getting completely ignored. Heck Josh Donaldson said on one of his videos he doesnt even feel his hands. I think that kind of info to a young player is very misleading. And it causes them to spin out because all they do is fire the hips and spin the shoulders. These teachings just seem crazy to me. A hockey slap shot, or tennis back hand your coach would never tell you to just fire the hips and rotate through the swinging motion.
hola coach, mi nombre es hugo Jaen te escribo desde venezuela
excelentes tus videos.. muy educativas primero par mi como el padre y despues yo le bajo la informacion a mi hijo.. el es primer bate de su equipo .. podrias hacer un video con tips para jugadores de ese turno al bate,.. gracias y dios te bendiga

exactly what my son is doing....we will work on this ASAP
Awesome! I hope it helps!!
Where are you in Colorado
Is this in Colorado
What exercise do you do with the foam roller?
Aside from hitting drills like the one in this video, you can roll different areas of your body for prehab and rehab. It's called Self Myofascial Release if you'd like to do more research. You can roll just about everything from your upper back, hamstrings, quads, IT band, calves, etc.
I get bottom half of the equator. But what is inside part of the baseball?
Hey Justin, lately I've been practicing my throwing for about a week now, and have been getting a lot better at throwing, fielding, catching, power, and accuracy. i don't have hitting down yet, because I don't have a tee or a net to hit it in. Also, I live in a small neighborhood, and don't want to hit anyone's house. Yesterday, i decided to go all in, I'm talking 10X on throwing for like a good hour. Today, when i woke up, my arms are "weird". When I lifted my arms, and tried to stretch them, it's like sore, but like a popping sound.(This is in the rotatory cuffs by the way) what are your thoughts on this? Is it bad or something I should worry about like tendinitis? Or is it because I might have done my throwing mechanics wrong?
Good question. I would take a few days off and see how you feel. You always want to be gradual when scaling up your training. If you go from the couch to throwing for an hour the next day, your game is gonna be sore and hanging. It's better to progress - throw for 15 mins, then 20 mins, then 30 mins, etc. Take a few days off to rest and if it feels like PAIN and not soreness, I would get it looked at by a doctor to be safe. It could be from poor mechanics, but most likely it's from overdoing it.
Ultimate Baseball Training Thanks Justin I always greatly appreciate your time and help. I'm the 15 year old who wanted to get back into baseball. I know I still have some ground to cover, but thanks to you and your videos, I'm already seeing improvement in my fundamentals!
👍🏻
i really need help with my throw i play left field mostly and when i throw the ball it just, blaghgh
11phoenix do lots of long toss
hey
That drill is like fence drill,
Hey Coach Justin, I used to be an alright batter but this season I didn't get one hit. I don't know what happened but I just, got into a huge slump. This season we had to get new bats because of the regulations so I got a new bat. I didn't really pay attention to the bat so I got a drop 8 32 inch Easton bat. I used to have a 31 inch drop 10. I don't know if that's the problem or not. Do you think the bat could be the problem?
If you're not used to the bat then that definitely could be a part of the problem.
Its crazy but theres a similar thing for the golf swing. Seems like coming from the inside is universal
How about in regards to slowpitch softball. I hear a lot of guys say "You need to drop the baseball inside out swing it doesnt work in softball, because you need to generate your own power. " I dont fully understand what that means i feel like i produce plenty of power keeping everything tight within my rotation.
I don't know much about slowpitch softball, but the concepts remain the same. You're still stronger and quicker when everything is tight to your body. I wouldn't worry about what they say. They'll be jealous when you're hitting dingers while they're struggling!
haha. Love it. Your videos are great btw. Ive spent the last 2 years coaching little league, ive always been a student of the game and love hearing new perspective on different ways to train kids. The axe to tree analogy is great, ill be stealing that one.
@@ryanpellegrini1023 would you chop down a tree staying connected or lengthening your arms? Not a trick question.
Do you do private lessons?
Send me an email and we can see if it makes sense!
Coach Jim what state are you in ?
Is it good at 14 to be able to hit over a 280 fence with a wood bat with slow batting practice pitches
Yes, that's solid. It's even better if you can do it in real games against real pitching, not slow BP pitches
Coming back to baseball after 9 or 10 years, I notice I have a problem with extending my arms
You just made a video about how the foam roller drill was a bad idea
You get a thumbs up from me just for using swinging an axe as an example. That is something I try to use as an example. Then I realize most of my kids have never used a big axe 😐. I wish I could bring an axe to practice 🙂

Thanks for getting here quick!
Try to a home run
Did Ken Griffey Jr stay inside the ball?
U think I can use this drills for softball girls a lot people said is different but I not sure is it true
Absolutely this will work for softball. There's not much (if any) difference between a good softball and good baseball swing.
Ultimate Baseball Training ty I thought the same way now I have another question one of my girls she has a great eye on knowing which pitch to swing and which not she gets a lot of walk by the way but she feels every time she swings to a strike she’s not hitting it so I’m going to start with this drill staying connected u think that will be the good one to start ?
Want to do this drill but don’t want to drop $20 on a piece of foam. I’m any one has any idea on what I could use instead please tell me. Thanks!
Brae use a Pool Noodle..
We would "borrow " the Orange construction cones all over the streets and stick a thin rod inside (so that the rod is sticking up)
Jorge P ok thanks!
A pool noodle is a great idea as well as the cone idea. You can also use PVC pipe. That's much cheaper
PVC pipe would work!
Good video but this dude has never swung an ax before in his life. Lol
With all due respect I believe you are exactly wrong re your "inside the ball" concept. A much better lesson is seen in Manny Ramirez swing. Ditto for George Brett, Henry Aaron, etc. All can be viewed on you tube. "Baseball Rebellion Swing Breakdown" is a good place to start. Your method has the leading arm FAR too bent and close to the body! You can view and stop action the swings on the Baseball Rebellion swing breakdown on you tube and see the way the leading arm should look. I led the nation in college, too many years ago, but I still know what the proper swing looks like, and the "inside the ball" swing is definitely not it.
Curious. Everyone teaches to keep your arm attached to hip during rotation but watching Ted Williams and George Brett they let their elbow get away. Ted williams swing seems longer and he extend the elbows almost fully at contact. You can find the video under Ted Willians slow motion swing. What do you think about it? I’m asking because I work with my son quite a bit and his back elbow was racing forward until I had hit think about keeping the hands attached and then he had more power but he’s 5’8 1/2 and only 90 pounds. Skinny. The longer swing seems more natural.
Great video
Thank you, I appreciate that!
