Half the battle of doing a Deadlift correctly is setting your back! Always look for wrinkles in the shirt near the shoulder blades to ensure the athlete is pulling back before they start @zachkennedy11 in Rocklin, California.

Spring time grind!

Chin tuck=neutral spine! One of the biggest mistakes made during a hip hinge movement is putting your head into extension! #tuckthatchin

Brick by Brick!

Gotta stay focused

Using the plyo step will help create better angles if you're accelerating in the linear plane from a baseball or basketball specific start

Is lower extremity external rotation during early acceleration okay?

To get a better first step, follow the 80-20 rule! In this case, we focus on first step quickness for a Softball athlete who is bunting or stealing a bag. The lead leg carries 80% of the weight while the back leg carries 20%! #softball #building #speed #steelap #grind #summer #bunt #steal #firststep #fundamentals
