I'm certainly no expert in this but I've watched about 25 different high velocity pitchers, Chapman/Graterol/Ryan and several others in slow motion and NOT A SINGLE ONE of them has their front shoulder closed at stride foot contact. If someone can post a link to a video of a pitcher with his front shoulder closed at stride foot contact that his high velocity I'd appreciate it.
''Today we will be talking about hip to shoulder separation. We will begin by teaching you what it is and helping you better understand it.'' Grabs the whip: I think.. we know... where this abouta go.
seems like a fly rod would demonstrate the point better than the whip snapping down. double check me here, the whip begins with the foot plant, back hip snapping twards the plate, then the sternum leads down the hill than the chin down the hill, then the elbo and then the wrist. I'm looking into this more because of soreness in my UCL and at 60 years old I want to stay in the game as long as I can!!
I define the arm moving the handle of the whip as the back leg moving the hips down the mound. The front leg brake is the hand pulling back on the handle of the whip to transfer all the arm power up the body of the whip and beyond.
You might be able to trick parents into giving you their hard earned money but I’ll just say that I threw 675 combined innings between D1/Pro baseball and I’ve never heard anything on the mound explained this way. Maybe if I would have practiced with a whip I would’ve topped out >94 during my career. Sadly never used a whip and sat 87-89 in college and 89-91 in pro ball. Unfortunate.
How do you not know about shoulder hip separation? Maybe thats why you never made it to the big leagues kid, being able to do this would massively help in baseball, and Im coming here from cricket where the separation is vitally important

I came to the same conclusion
Separation ends right before the stride foot hits the ground and not upon the stride foot hitting the ground
My first thought 💭: why does he even have that in the first place🤔🤔
Hopefully he’s an Indiana Jones fan😭😭🤣
