With the mental image attitude of this program, one creates core strength to be directed in shaping the swing form by engaging feet, the hips, shoulders and head to the hands and grip around the bat in the batter’s box.
In the batter box a player utilizes internal strength and good baseball swing form created in this program, to bring the bat around to the ball that is going through the mental visualized window strike zone.
Practicing internal core strengthening techniques, base on a qigong method, in the batter’s box will enable the batter to create the force to bring the turning rotational speed and force of the hips into the arms and down to the hand.
The grip of each hands palm and fingers to the tips forms the connective grip link to the bat that a batter uses to form his bat feel.
How the hands form around the bat creates the type of grip that enables the bat to become an extension of this core force, as if one could feel the bat as part of the body, coming around to hit the ball.
The grip is a key connective link in the ability to transfer rotational force of the body, to create the striking force of the bat which is bases on the grip setup.
The first is bat speed that is the speed coming around with the bat.
Second part focuses on wrist bring the bat around forming a snapping action with the bat into the ball which creates bat striking speed force.
The idea of striking speed and force is based on wrist snapping action creating its own speed and strength at the point of impact of bat hitting ball.
Bat speed brings the hands to the ball coming through the imagined “Window strike zone” over the plate but it is the wrist snapping action creates striking speed and strength that forms impact force between bat and ball.
The way the arms are held, either being straight or bent, affects the transfer of force down that arm and the connective force in the hands to the bat.
The form of one arm straight and one bent setup the batter to unleash the torso force to amply hand action in hitting the ball.
What is not considered by most batting techniques is the critical importance of hand and finger pressure and how it affects the ability to lock the lead arm at the moment of contact with the ball.
Striking speed ability is a coordination of upper and lower hand action to bring the bat into the ball with hand strength at the point of impact.
Hand strength around the bat is coordinated based on Palm and Finger Pressure formed in the forearms of the straight and bent arm connected to the upper core area of the torso.
Aiming the knob of the bat at the beginning of the swing, as the ball comes through an imaginary strike zone window, is the first function of the bottom hand on the bat.
The role of the top hand on the bat is to transfer striking speed and force.
There is executing a swings base on tempo of the bat to meet the ball coming across the plate.
Timing is the other word used to judge when to swing bat base on the speed of the pitch.
At the highest level of development in this program a batter has a two speed swing tempo to bring the bat into a fast ball.
