Assist each participant in becoming a true Champion both on the field and in life by providing the most up to date and successful baseball specific training techniques, programs and products to aid each athlete in realizing their full genetic potential while minimizing the risk of baseball related injury.

Over the past ten to fifteen years, baseball has grown into a year round sport. With this change, the direction of baseball strength and conditioning is rapidly changing as well. Baseball players once were discouraged from entering the weight room for fear of becoming too bulky.
Now most players are involved in weight lifting activities to build explosiveness and bat speed. Baseball is now viewed as an explosive sport that consists of short, fast and powerful movements. Newer training techniques focus on explosive speed and power instead general strength.
What to look for in a good training program (should include but not limited to):

• core strengthening (focus on the legs, abdominal muscles, back musculature, chest)

• speed and agility work- concentration on footwork (take-off, etc), acceleration, change of direction etc.

• plyometric training- these are short duration explosive movements that should be baseball specific in nature (such as throwing motions with weight balls), and resisted swing training

• rotator cuff stabilization- strengthening of the front and back muscles of the shoulder

Along with performance enhancement, we implement injury prevention strategies into our training because of the athlete participating year round. Focus areas should be the shoulder and elbow due to the large amounts of throwing involved in baseball.
