Download or read book Swing Smarter written by Joey Myers and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-02-04 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I am a Physical Therapist your stuff in body movements is awesome. I went to some FMS courses and Gray Cook spoke highly of you. Your approach is truly the best because of your use of anatomy and kinesiology." - Jay Finton "Wow, I didn't realize how researched this material actually was. I'm blown away how these simple movement patterns have been researched. I just ordered the Truth about explosive rotational power. Never in my 20 years have I seen someone or anyone for that matter actually explain movement/motion. They all claim to teach how the body works to swing a bat, but never have they explained it. They just claim to know how the body works and failed to explain it in their material." - Shawn Bell "Hey Joey, I'm currently on my 4th ball player. I've had my 2 oldest involved with softball and my 2 younger guys with baseball. I've gotten the oldest 3 "professional" instruction with their swing mechanics and approach with mixed results. Often times, Id have to spend countless hours fixing a flaw they developed through the instruction. It became frustrating for everyone involved, and more importantly we lost precious developmental time. I decided to take a more hands on approach with my 4th and through my research stumbled on your book, we're not big people so the title instantly grabbed my attention. I read it and was hooked, the principle driven, bio mechanical approach resonated with me. We seen alot of progress this past season working at the points from Catapult." - John M. Meatte Jr. From the back cover... This baseball hitting stuff works and is completely backed by Science, so you know it is even more reliable. Science based baseball swing training built to help understand not only how and what to train but the reasoning behind the program's methods... Why most people believe it spells DISASTER if you're telling hitters to 'swing down', 'keep barrel above hands', or 'get on top of the ball' -- but why that's good for them (if you teach it right!), Exactly how you can systematically teach pull hitters to effectively go opposite field, and oppo hitters to pull the ball... A brand-NEW way you can quickly identify top-3 consistent power mechanics (WITHOUT focusing on 'loading and exploding' the hips, ground reaction forces, or using the legs more!), What you must do AT ONCE to avoid wrecking the low back or neck of your hitters - Chapters 1 and 5... Precisely why my approach ensures you'll realize your dreams of getting predictably positive results with your hitters without EVER having to have played at a high level, watched millions of hours of swing analysis video, or spent countless hours in the cage... WARNING: Avoid these 3 hitting strategies like the plague! Ignoring this advice can mean your hitter will look like an amateur, and even give hitting up completely (this is SERIOUS) ... And much more...
