Thanks for putting this out. I’m 14 and I’m gonna face 89-93 for the first time this weekend.
B Tarpey WHOA
Yea bruh I just moved up in travel ball 14 Also and it rocked my world I was so used to like maybe 60 then they started pitching heat and I couldn't handle it im getting better though
yeah same here and last night a dude got to 93
OMG same guys my first travel ball game is tmr amd idk how fast these guys pitch I’m used to 65mpjh
who the fuck is 14 throwing 90
Thanks for the tips, I played Jv for 2 years and I finally got moved up to varsity. Let's just say, the pitching is very very very different
You're welcome! Yes, definitely a step up! You'll get the hang of it!
That’s what’s happening to me rn 😂
A bit late but same here. Played on jv my first two years of hs and missed all of last season due to the pandemic. I’m a senior but I’m finally facing varsity pitching and it’s a big difference. Just having trouble timing up the faster pitching but this video really helps.
@@gabemedina2275 aye bro my tips for you is to just load early and if you take a big front step when you load, don’t do that. You want to have a quick swing to the ball just get the barrel to the ball as quick as possible. Work on timing and catch the ball out in front of the plate should be ur contact point
Phew. This helps because i'm really bad at batting. Just thinking about going up to the plate next practice/game made my palms sweaty...
I'm glad this video was helpful!
sameeeee I was good but this year the pitchers are fast and I can't hit :(
Not_that_ToXic hey man don’t worry about that it’s about confidence at the plate dawg
Not_that_ToXic when things open up you can go to pitching machines and worry about barreling that ball up but don’t talk down on yourself work to get better like yes I’m not where I wanna be right now but keep working hard to get there that’s what baseball is about
Not_that_ToXic dude, same the pitchers are really good. I didn’t hit a single hit for a game. Until I saw this video I learned some good fundamentals.
Just watching a few of your videos made me realize how much coaching and knowledge I lacked when I was playing in HS. Thanks for sharing your videos, I'm looking forward to using your tips in a men's league this summer!
Thanks for the support Lou! Good luck this summer!
Great video that helped me a lot when I face hard pitchers.
I'm glad to hear that! Thanks for watching
My son is freshman baseball player in college ( Bearcats) we discuss your vids and how they teach consistency and also to look at things from a different approach to get better
Thanks
Thank you because im going to highschool this year and i need to hit a fast ball
I've used a lot of your videos coaching little league... but as my son is getting older this one is by far my favorite. Thank you for the videos
The yes yes no is key for high velocity and just trust your mechanics that they will shine (if they are good)
Love your videos...i have my son watch them all the time.
Awesome! I'm glad to hear that! I appreciate the support 🙏🏼
Good video really a confidence booster for someone like me somewhat new to hitting
Thanks I've learned a lot from your videos my son is having a very hard time adjusting to high school baseball Hitting And it is making him very frustrated so I'm trying to implement some of your skills and videos with him to help him get back on track thanks again great tips and knowledge
Great video, again, Coach Justin. My problem, and why I didn't last much in ball after college: My approach was yes, yes, and then yes! On balls that should have ended in "No!"
Hey, Coach Justin here! I’m going to be in the comments section doing Q&A for the first couple hours of the release, so if you have a question, comment below :)
Hi Coach Justin. I've had some trouble flying open when hitting and I'd love to hear any advice or tips you might have, Thanks!
how far did you make it in like single A triple A and all that stuff?? love your videos they help me a lot keep it up!!!!!!!!
Since what age did you start playing baseball
Ultimate Baseball Training A
Ultimate Baseball Training did you play baseball ⚾️
Thank you! This is great stuff to teach younger players. Exactly what I was looking for! My 10 year old is moving up a division this summer and starting to see the ball come at him faster. These tips are easy to understand and put into practice right away.
Thanks for this video Coach Justin! I've used the yes-yes-no concept with my kids after seeing this one for the first time. I came back to revisit because my son just moved up to the bronco league (11/12). We've got a younger team, and our kids are struggling to hit the fast pitchers. And there seem to be a couple on every team. I plan to go over these concepts with them in practice tomorrow! Appreciate it.
I have a baseball game Tommaro I'm gonna try this hope it works
Thx man i took grammer lessons from your mother
@The REAL Donald Trump reading this almost gave me a brain aneurysm
I have a baseball game today, gonna test this out and will tell you how it does! Sounds promising
Sounds good! Keep me posted!
This is one of the longest baseball games I’ve ever seen.
Extra innings eh?
@@skeedster5149 theyre still doing extra innings
helped me a lot bro. was used to mid 60s low 70s then got moved up to mid 80s and got completely thrown off.
There's this fast pitcher I just can never hit off but I think this will help
Thank you for the tips. I'm 12 and about to go into a tournament and meet fast pichers
Hey thanks for this video I will definitely look over this again I never knew what to do during a fast hitter so I would always get nervous I would over think to much but now I’m just gonna take your advice and try it my next practice and during the my game that is coming up
One thing that I found helps me to stay loose is before getting into the batters box I throw a few practice swings. Not real ones. Standing straight. Legs not loading or striding. They are staying still. And just casually swing the bat until I feel that I am relaxed and loose.
That’s a great way to stay loose!
Ultimate Baseball Training Yeah. It works a lot. I just started playing baseball a couple months ago. With no prior experience as a JR. Its something I've always wanted to try but never had permission until now. I struggled. Not originally making the team but made a deal with the coaches. Baseball was my dream. I would help them out with everything including book keeping and I'll be able to practice with them. By the time the first game came they decided I was ready to play. As a starter. On JV. Right fielder. 9th at bat. I still have a long way to go but your videos have been a great help.
After I watched your video I hit a inside the parker and then a triple :)
YES!! Let's gooo! That's awesome, keep up the great work!
Thanks! I will
The Basics! Yay. You got these all correct. The only thing I'd add would be to lower your leg kick the faster the pitcher throws. SLIDE BACK A TINY BIT EARLIER FOR LOAD, HOLD A BIT, GLIDE N HYDRO PLANE THE FRONT FOOT FORWARD, THEN FINALLY START SWING DANCE EXPLOSION WHILE PUSHING WITH BACK FOOT, BUGGY WHIPPING YOUR HANDS AND BAT THEN EVER SO LIGHTLY LANDING FRONT FOOT WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY ATTACKING THE BALL WITH A SHORTER PUNCH STROKE!
swing dance explosion buggy whip punch stroke. Got it Coach!
YES COACH
This is my first yr in a jr/snr league in baseball (iykyk) anyways this helps a lot because then pitchers throwing hard gas and now I am making contact on the ball thanks
I’m 12 playing 14u juniors and bouts face 60-75 mph thanks for the help
Can you make a video about how to release the ball quicker. My daughter plays travel softball and I notice most of the girls struggle with holding the ball wait to long either from the outfield to infield or infield to any base.
Im starting to play baseball and i am trying out for the high school team i am a freshmen and i need tips.
Right 🤙🏾
Anything specific? Check out my recent tryout video! That will help a ton!
Watch my new tryout video! That will help a lot!
How is your baseball career going?
Hey thank yo7 so much I just had a legends tournament in worthington and I’m going against a fast pitcher I’m 15 and playing high school baseball and sheesh you helped me so Ty!
dance with the pitcher, i never thought of that, does this work when someone isn’t throwing gas?
Thank you so much u helped me alot
I'm glad to hear that! You're welcome!
Can you make a vid on baseball situation. Like runner on second, ball hit in center field...
+Pat Gauthier I'll try to get that into a video soon!
Wow man thanks u really helped. Got some helpful hints
Thank you so much I am 10 and am facing fast pitchers😃
Thank you for the video😬😬
You’re welcome!!
I agree when you said that we should have loose muscles when it comes to a faster pitcher because i do it everytime and the results are way better compared to when i hold the bat too tight because the reaction of the hands are not the same. Overall..Great Video!
"Nice and relaxed and loosey goosey."
Good stuff.
I got tryouts in 3 days thanks
Coach - I can't wait to see you in the dugout of The Show giving advice to the pros.
Great vid and keep up the great work your videos are amazing
Do you have a video of keeping elbow back during swing? I tend to always bring my elbow forward during swing and getting under the ball.
Thank you such much I was faceing 60 am 11 and got a hit
I have a game like in 5 hours... I’m serious and I’m kinda scared
I hope it went well! Moving forward, put in hard work at practice, then relax and play your game!
Spot on advice
Great video. My 12 years old son would benefit from this video. Thanks.
thank you, i’m doing my first season of 12u travel ball and it’s a lot different from little league, i still struggle with thinking every pitch will hit me and i get scared and my legs shake but thanks for this video, could you please make a headfirst sliding video??? thanks
Hey coach Justin I took a year off and now I’m not as good as I once was and try outs are in 4 days I practiced a couple hours by myself but I’m still super nervous about messing up the kids I’m going up against also played club ball since they were little do you have any tips I’m super nervous 😅
Tryouts for highschool freshman ball^
Have you seen our videos on tryouts? I believe we have two of them. The tips in those videos will REALLY help you out!
Did you make it
I’m going into high school so what should I expect
Ngl all these videos r brilliant
Great vid!
Thank you!
Thanks coach! Any tee work drills for fast pitch drills?
Christian Banks Not on a tee, because its stationary when ur trying to practice a "fast" pitch. A good drill I use is front toss from 10 feet away. It takes quick reactions and takes about the same time as "game speed" w out having to worry about getting hit.
cashfan3 THANKS!
I'll never play a baseball match since I am European, but I am going through your Training so I can enjoy watching MLB on ESPN, FOX etc.. What else can you suggest me for Baseball education for the sake of watching enjoyment.
Theres a lot of baseball softball people doing the same stuff like these videos but JUSTIN I like your style and its helped my daughter in her fast pitch softball she is 13U .Her last 4 games at "A" LEVEL she is killing it, 2 Home runs over the 220ft fence 5 doubles 2 triples a couple singles . She has always been very tense and cant relax well now you see her loose and on fire now. If theirs one thing I as a dad would like to see fixed she swings early sometimes and corrects that. But thanks for the videos .
+Fitness Geared That's so awesome!! I'm so glad to hear that she's having success and it's great to hear that you guys are liking the videos!
No one gives a shit
Thanks very very good
can you do a tips for 3rd base??
I typically have no problem hitting a hard throwing pitcher, but can you give me advise on anything that would make it easier to sit back on a slower than average pitcher
I'll try to make a video on this soon, but watch my video on how to hit a curveball. It will really help - many of the same principles apply!
Ok, will do
95 mph pitcher today I definitely need to watch this😁
Jesus Nuñez whoa dude ur cool
Good luck.
Thank you this is what I needed
You're welcome!!
Hey Coach.. Got any drills to help with staying back and not opening up while my players are swinging? My biggest gripe with some of my players are that they're not staying back and leaning forward
Andrew Grignon that is something that takes a while to work out of their swing. My son started creeping forward just a little bit and one thing his hitting coach did was show him some pro players with excellent hitting skills then showed a few videos of my son hitting and explained the differences and what he should be doing. Now mind you my son's movement was so subtle that it wasn't completely obvious what was happening until we recorded him except for a few really bad cases.
This was mid season and he was frustrated not getting good hits then after a few more sessions with the coach to work the links out he finished the reg season strong with .403 BA, .506 OBA, .486 SLG, .996 OPS. In ended post season with .571 BA & SLG, .625 OBA, & .1196 OPS. Once we got him back he was relaxed and driving the balls.
I even went as far as doing vids of our players during a game and showed the ones that was struggling before their next at bat and that helped them a lot. They couldn't figure out what was happening but when you can show them and explain it they can understand better.
Sorry this was so long winded but I hope it helps and Coach Justin thanks for sharing these tips as always excellent video with excellent advice!!!
This really helps thx
Make a workout video for hitters and catchers please!
+Colin Barczi You mean like a tee routine? Or like a body weight workout?
Ultimate Baseball Training body weight because I need to know what workouts are good for being a better hitter and catcher thanks!
What bat does he use
Great video! You hit the nail on the head with this one.
+Lisa Hello Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Hey coach Justin I wondering do you training camps? And if so at what location and how much??
+Andrew Rodriguez We haven't had any training camps yet, but we have plans to do that in the future! stay tuned!
Love the yes yes no method!
Hi coach Justin can you make a video about how to read and hitter pitchers who throw a lot of sliders and curveballs and still have a cheddar fastball, even when they throw there breaking balls behind the count. Thanks
+Ricky R Yeah man!
my biggest thing for you Is, you have to watch what he is doing. If he is throwing breaking balls on a 1-2 count, then you know what to expect
i’m playing varsity as a freshman rn and we’ll here i am
How can I improve at 1st base?
Also cool new intro
+Minnesota sports fan Thanks man! We have a few first base videos you should watch. That's the first step! Anything specific you need to work on?
Scooping is my main problem
Minnesota sports fan Practice...
- Nasty10 yeaaa THATS like fielding I can improve on and my school only has a varsity team so I need a lotta practice
If... You are facing high velocity pitching regularly in your training (closer range training) and are challenged you are prepared for top flight pitching. If not, you aren't

For tryouts I'm not nervous until its time to hit when though I know I'm a good hitter. I always get nervous and make hitting errors only. Why is that? My bat? Me?
DaiJohn Jefferson thinking too much? Everytime I think about trying to do good or trying not to do bad, i mess up. Just focus on the pitcher and let everything happen on its own. Your greatest enemy is yourself.
Great stuff!
Thanks Christian! I appreciate it!
A fear I have is getting hit by the pitch, tho I have been playing for years when they are a fast pitcher I fear that he will hit me how could I overcome this
I usually stride before the pitcher puts his leg down so by time the ball is coming st me I’m ready to hit it out the park
Just make sure you don't get your foot down too early and lose all of your momentum!
@@UltimateBaseballTraining wow thanks for the tip man, its kinda hard because i'm self taught with barley anyone to practice with and i really got all the little bit of skill i have from your videos and a couple other so i appreciate the advice alot :)
Man I play AAA baseball in Canada, I’ve Struck Out A HELL Ton this year. I think 8 of my last 12 AB’s have been strikeouts. Last year I was an All-Star but this year I’ve been in a huge slump the whole year.. any tips?
I think these three videos will really help you:

How Do You Escape A Pickle/Rundown?
don’t get in one
Thx I am face a 50 mp pich and I am only 9
Justin, if you're philosophy is driving the curve ball / offspeed pitch the other way then doesn't that mean that you're actually sitting on curve / offspeed? If you're attempting to drive the offspeed stuff the other way, you are going to get BLOWN AWAY on the fast ball. Is it not a better approach with 2 strikes to think fast ball the other way so you are able to adjust / pull the off speed stuff? Please elaborate, in your video it sounds like you are an advocate for hitting the offspeed pitches the other way with 2 strikes.
I'm an advocate for sitting on the fastball and adjusting to off speed. I agree, if you sit on off speed stuff, you'll get blown away by the fastball because you won't have enough time to react! I'm completely okay with hitters taking off speed pitches the other way OR pulling them. It depends on the pitch location. However, I think when hitters recognize off speed, it's good to have the mentality of hitting the ball oppo because it lets the ball travel a little bit longer. Most players are out in front of off speed pitches, so if you think opposite field you'll be more on a time vs. out front. Thanks for the comment and the support!
right on man. I read recently that Hank Aaron was quoted as saying that he NEVER looked fastball, that he always looked curve and adjusted to fastball.....................I love me some Henry Aaron but I think he's talking out his a$$ on this one...........if this is true then it says a lot of the poor pitching he faced during his career...............you can turn on any baseball game and watch a big league player looking for something off speed and getting the express with two strikes and they just get locked up and walk back to the dug out........
I need to know how to catch bouncers
bryan
Im here because I'm 13 and I'm gonna be playing in a 15-16 year old leauge and they will be pitching like 60-70 but if I hit it it's probably gonna be a home run I almost hit it over the fence when my coach pitched and he didn't even pitch that hard or fast
I know no one is gonna believe me and be like ur 13 u can't do that u can't be that good but I know how good I am and I know how far I hit the ball today so I don't care if u believe or dont believe
You should be a MLB player 👍👍
Y
I get nervous and my legs shake and can’t tell if it’s a ball or strike
Breathe, relax, and don't try to do too much! Just see it n hit it!
I am 14 years old to
I miss balls at 50 mph. Guess i just have to practice my hand eye coordination.
Are you still in school?
How can I catch fast grounders without hesitating 😩
PROz -Neb feet first 👍🏻
Ian Navarro ian 😂 My name is ian too xD but I don't understand 😂
PROz -Neb don’t wait on the grounder. Run up to it and scoop it
Ian Trinidad Attack the ball. Wait back and ur done, charge the ball and u have a way better chance.
Open your eyes and glove.
Yes yes no approach is a game changer
Seems legit
Thank you!
I try to hit fastballs with my bat
Can’t wait to hit a 93 mph fastball u know
If you really want to help us with our bat speed, just put the video on this youtube channel, much easier than sending the video to each individual email. Unless you just want our email for some kind of scam of course.
Just because of this I just destroyed this guy that pitch really fast
Make a softball one

Ultimate Softball Training 🤔
