  • Today we will be going over how the hips and shoulders move throughout the pitching motion! This is a very controversial topic and there are a lot of conflicting methods being taught

    Thank you! My 8yo loves your videos and it has helped her be an absolute beast pitching up in the 10u.

    Love love love this video. First time I can finely understand the hip and clarification on when to “open”. Thank you so much. On to teach my 11 yr old!

    Good video - helped with what to look for. I do think it's hard to show a broken down pitch because the hip/shoulder opening and closing all happens while your drive leg is still airborne. But i think the important thing is that the arm motion should cause the opening of the shoulders and hips, it shouldn't be the leg drive making that opening happen. Very hard to see and diagnose at full speed.

    Believe it or not im here for tips on golf. That hip should separation is key to a powerful swing and learning to drop the elbow stops a slice. Hopefully I can translate this over

    Love your videos and all of this makes sense. But is it still possible to get caught behind your hip when you engage at the end? My daughter has tendency to get caught behind her hip and will check if it’s arm angle or being overly open but was just wondering if it’s still possible to get stuck when you engage hip like you are saying.

      I was wondering the same thing. I always understood to keep the hips open to avoid getting the arm caught. Once you close the hips back up you get unwanted screwballs. Lol! Or if less fortunate, I’ve seen girls with stress fractures due to arm contacting the hip at a high rate. It appears that the method in this video shows a slight hip closure not necessarily a full close. Which might be positive and helpful. The instructor does mention leaving a clear path for the arm to get through. At that point in the video, she closes hips but with a bit of a pivot.

    Great job, I coach in the South Bronx can I send some quick videos of my girls trying to pitch for you to do a quick analysis/recommendations?

      Hi Jason! Please send me an email at fppjillian@gmail.com and I can send you my options for video analysis!

    I see many pitchers pitching around their hips. I like to have my pitchers square up their shoulders more than their hips for this reason. Plus if the shoulders square up then the ball stays in the right path. Everything else I agree with though.

    My 16 yr old daughter has thrown thousands of pitches opening her hips immediately. Where do I start fixing this? Any drill recommendations? Thx!

  • @jaredburrup2044
    @jaredburrup2044 2 года назад

    My daughter is out front and leaned over and her arm gets out (like side arm). Wasn’t until I watched this video that I realized what may be happening! What drills does she need to do just to work hips and shoulders to get that separation?

    My pitcher hits her hip with her arm during/at the delivery. How do you prevent her from doing so? It caused a very large ugly bruise recently.

    • @FastpitchPower
      @FastpitchPower  2 года назад +1

      Sadly this is really common, and if you can believe it, there are a ton of coaches out there who teach this intentionally (Called a hip brush) because they believe it "adds speed." It baffles me. If your pitcher is hitting herself she is likely doing something that is causing her arm to get behind her body, but there are a lot of things that can cause that to happen, it is hard for me to know without seeing video of her.
