“Hey coach, I just had a couple ideas about my program...” See you tomorrow, Swole Soldiers! #thestrengthhouse #trainwithapurpose

Here’s a great drill we have begun using with our athletes. Particularly suitable for our baseball and softball players. Split Stance Foot From Above trains the athlete on many different levels:

1. Teaches proper foot strike for the front side when throwing and hitting. The focus here is on “foot from above” a concept we have adopted from the work of Frans Bosch @fransboschsystems. The hurdle is used as a constraint to help the athlete develop a movement solution of striking the box from above and not “sliding” the foot in from a level plane. If we look for commonality amongst high level deliveries and approaches at the plate you will notice this action of the front foot.

2. By coaching a fast and firm intent we can train the stability of the front leg in cooperation with proper torso positioning which keeps the abdominals at their proper length through out the movement. We do not want extension or flexion of the spine.

3. Once an athlete has shown proficient movement we can add a punch of the front side to perturb the system and add another layer of difficulty in core and hip stability. In order to manage the shifting load of the weight (in this case a water filled ball) proper co-contractions in the lower leg and torso must be utilized by the body to keep position.

MASSIVE CONGRATS to a young lady who exemplifies what The Strength House stands for: @sophiasciarappa went 9/9 in her first full meet hitting a 250 squat, 135 bench, and gigantic 390 deadlift at 19 years old (happy birthday 🎂) - Soph is also the starting catcher for the Wesleyan Softball team and arguably has the best hair of any Swole Soldier 🙌 You rock Sophia!!
