Even
better, it doesn't matter what size you are,
Click Here To View The Table of Contents I am really excited to be sharing this information with you. Why? Because it works! We have been offering this program online for more than five years now, and our customer satisfaction rate with literally tens of thousands of ball players is almost perfect - 99.7%! So pay close attention - what we'll cover in this report contains some meaty information that you can benefit from immediately. My job in the next few minutes is to show you how to train so you can handle serious "gas" and make it look easy. Let me tell you, few things can match the thrill of crushing a high-velocity fastball. Either a frozen rope up the middle or a titanic jack out of the park, one of those shots you barely feel because you drilled it right on the "sweet spot" of your bat - is one of the things that makes baseball such a great game. And if this hasn't happened to you yet, or it doesn't happen often enough, all I can say is, get ready - your game is about to drastically change. With my guidance, you can become the power hitter you've always wanted to be. Please note, this is not another "How-To-Hit" instructional. There are many of these on the market already. The specialized conditioning drills and information contained in the Baseball Program to Increase Bat Speed & Hitting Power, 2nd Edition, are designed to help develop the all-important aspect of hitting known as BAT SPEED. Increased BAT SPEED means increased HITTING POWER!
Before we get started, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Steve Zawrotny and I'm a former college baseball player and coach with more than 30 years in the game, from Little League through NCAA D-1. I do private baseball pitching and bat speed instruction in the Oklahoma City, OK area. What you'll learn in my program is exactly what I teach my private students, who pay me by the hour for my services. In addition, I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Physical Education from Brigham Young University (BYU), and I am a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) with the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA). All of this provides me with a solid background in kinesiology, anatomy, and physiology. I've been a keen observer and student over the years as to how the body functions in athletic competition - particularly baseball.
The TRUTH About Developing REAL Hitting Power In this report I'm going to reveal some things about bat speed and hitting power that you've likely never considered before. These are concepts and techniques I personally mastered during my playing career, improved upon as a coach, and now teach to my players and students. The further you read, the more you'll learn about what it takes to become a consistent power hitter. Think about the game and its demands - just how strong do you really have to be to play it well? In baseball, the ball is 5 ounces and bats weigh approximately 30 oz. Heck, a lot of young players swig cups of Pepsi and Mountain Dew that weigh more than that! FACT: Baseball is a game of explosive POWER, not brute strength. Picking up a 30 oz bat is a measure of strength. Using it to blast a baseball 400+ feet is a measure of POWER. FACT: If you can't hit a baseball very well and decide to begin a weight lifting program, you'll become a strong player who still can't hit a baseball!
This chart shows an approximation of how bat speed translates into distance. Increases in your bat speed will yield the additional distance as shown: +7 mph/35 feet +12 mph/60 feet +15 mph/75 feet +18 mph/90 feet Your mileage may vary, of course. A number of factors will affect how far a batted ball travels, including weather, humidity, the type of ball and bat used, speed of the pitched ball, etc. Still, these numbers will generally hold true and can give you a good idea of how this type of training will enhance your game. And just how long will it take to accomplish this? My entire program takes only 6 weeks, and Training
Just Three Days a Week, You'll Begin To See Results - Some players report improvement even sooner!
Want to
immediately improve your ability to make hard,
TIP #1: Start taking ALL of your batting practice with a wood bat instead of metal. Why? Because the "sweet spot" on a metal bat is much larger than that of wood. This is one key reason young players learn incorrect batting technique and develop bad habits - metal is much more forgiving if you don't hit a ball on the nose. Look at these pictures of this softball hitter making contact with a metal bat:
What do you think would have happened to this bat if it had been wood? It most likely would have broken, resulting in a weakly hit ball. This picture is from the Women's College World Series of 2006, and get this - the caption accompanying this picture said the hitter hit a home run on this pitch! This is how metal bats create bad habits - this particular stroke produced a hit on what probably should have been an out. Most hitters make this mistake all too often - mis-hitting the ball - resulting in poor contact, loss of power, and lowered batting average, even when using a metal bat.
FACT: Practicing with wood will train you to refine & improve your swing. How? With wood, when you don't hit the ball on the sweet spot, the bat vibrates, causing PAIN in your hands. This immediate feedback allows you a way to adjust your swing, or else you keep experiencing PAIN! You may have felt this with your metal bat. Trust me, it's worse with wood. That's exactly why practicing with wood is so valuable. Come game time, use your metal bat and watch your newly "honed in" swing boost your average and power just from this type of practice alone. Have you noticed yet that the things we've discussed so far go against much of the "conventional wisdom," yet they make perfect sense? Well, keep on reading - it gets better! TIP #2: The next time you're in the on-deck circle, getting ready for your turn at bat, DO NOT use a heavy donut. Why? Because clinical research and on-field performance have repeatedly shown this device actually inhibits bat speed. The same thing is true for the practice of taking dry-swings while holding several bats as well as using other heavily-weighted devices. Yes, I know this goes against everything you've been taught and have been doing. But if you've read this far, you're probably highly interested in improving your bat speed and hitting power.
You therefore need to be open to the idea that just because everyone is doing something doesn't necessarily mean it's a good idea. Incorrect ideas abound in baseball, as in most areas of life.
Why should you not swing a heavy implement while in the on-deck circle? FACT: Because this technique fatigues the fast-twitch muscle fibers you will momentarily be using to hit with at the plate! So if you shouldn't use a heavy donut or swing several bats at the same time, what should you do? Get a copy of the Baseball Program to Increase Bat Speed & Hitting Power, 2nd Edition and find out!

Baseball Training To Increase Throwing Velocity 5 mph (Or More) & Condition The Rotator Cuff Here’s What My Specialized Program Will Do For You:
Any ONE of the
above-listed attributes would be an asset to any player –
If this sounds interesting, read on, because I’m going to reveal some little known secrets about developing an AWESOME throwing arm. Click Here For Hard Copy Booklets Click Here For E-BookletsFirst, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Steve Zawrotny and I'm a former college baseball player, coach, and current Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) with the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA). I do private bat speed and baseball pitching instruction in the Oklahoma City, OK area. In addition, I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Physical Education from BYU, providing me with a solid background in kinesiology, anatomy, and physiology. I've been a keen observer and student over the years as to how the body functions in athletic competition - particularly baseball. All of this has come in handy as I've worked with hundreds of players, from Little League through NCAA Division-1. I’ve been around baseball for almost thirty years as a player and coach – I’ve even been an umpire. In the process I’ve talked to dozens and dozens of scouts and among the things they’ve told me is that few things get their attention like an awesome throwing arm. It doesn’t matter what the position - on the mound, behind the plate, infield or outfield - a strong throwing arm gets you noticed. Of the “Five Tools,” a really great arm is the one scouts see the least. Click

But it
doesn’t have to be this way… A lot of kids run fast, and “good”
hitters in high school and college are a dime-a-dozen. Heck, in baseball,
everyone hits .300 or .400 these days, and for two big reasons:
Metal Bats, and pitchers with
MEDIOCRE ARMS! Like I said, it doesn’t have to be this
way. While it’s not easy to develop an awesome throwing arm, the
process is actually fairly simple. What you’ll learn in this program
has been proven both in a clinical setting and ON THE FIELD. But before we
go any further, you must understand this key point :
WEIGHT
LIFTING DOES LITTLE TO NOTHING TO IMPROVE THROWING VELOCITY If you want to lift weights, go ahead.
I write training programs for my private baseball and softball clients all
the time, and I've written a separate strength
and conditioning program for ball players that you can learn more about by scrolling
further down this page. It will safely and effectively get you
ready to play your game, and is designed to work in conjunction with this
throwing workout. Just be sure whatever program you use is designed
by someone who knows both baseball and biomechanics. Click
Here For Hard Copy Booklets But don't expect your increased strength
to do much for your throwing (or hitting, for that matter). WHY? Because to improve one's
baseball skills, such as throwing or hitting, your workout
must be closely related to the act of throwing or hitting. Sport-specific
strength is developed by movements with resistance or assistance that
imitate the joint action of the skill - SPECIFIC
RESISTANCE TRAINING. This is one of the key
reasons why weight lifting by itself does very little to improve
baseball performance. This "general" strength one develops with
weight lifting contributes very little to actual on-field success.
But even more important is the fact that Weight lifting the wrong way often leads to arm injuries, and who needs that? Remember, baseball is a POWER game, not a strength game, and strength and power, while related, are NOT the same thing In the BASEBALL PROGRAM TO CONDITION ARM & INCREASE THROWING VELOCITY, 2nd Edition. I show you what DOES work. This unique workout is based on two key conditioning principles – SPECIFIC RESISTANCE TRAINING and PROGRESSIVE OVERLOAD. These two principles MUST be employed in any program to increase throwing strength. You’ll be given clear instructions for:
- Complete and thorough directions for all aspects of the program (it really is simple, but boy, does it work!) - The proper weight of balls to use – and yes, a regulation 5 oz. baseball is one of them Click Here For Hard Copy Booklets Click Here For E-Booklets So, if what you're looking for is a proven way to INCREASE YOUR ABILITY TO THROW HARDER, the BASEBALL PROGRAM TO CONDITION ARM & INCREASE THROWING VELOCITY, 2nd Edition, has been shown repeatedly, by both clinical research and on-field performance, to be the most effective, state-of-the-art approach to accomplishing this goal.

This program is jammed-pack FULL of easy-to-understand explanations, pictures and diagrams to help you increase your strength, flexibility, power, and conditioning. But before we start, there are a few things we need to get straight about baseball.
Five
Misunderstood Facts about Fact #1: Increased muscle mass does not necessarily equate to more home runs, a faster fastball, or even increased running speed. Fact #2: The "alactic-anaerobic" energy system is the primary system used in playing baseball, not the "aerobic" energy system. Fact
#3: The average pro baseball player is about the same size as
a pro-football receiver or defensive back. The average pro-ballplayer
is: Fact
#4: Throwing, hitting, and running are short-burst, high
velocity, ballistic movements that require tremendous physical force and
power. Fact #5: To improve your hitting, throwing, or running use training exercises and drills that closely relate to the specific conditioning demands of these particular activities. Click Here For Hard Copy Booklets Click Here For E-Booklets 10 Point Checklist to Determine the Effectiveness and Safety of Your Year-Round Strength & Conditioning Program Do You Make These Mistakes When You Train?
1. Dedicating more than 10-15 minutes per session on
"aerobic" or cardiovascular fitness with exercises like long
distance running or biking. 2. A
weight lifting regimen that emphasizes building bulk - programs more
suitable for body-building or football, like those found in most
mainstream fitness magazines. 3. Lacks
stretching exercises to promote muscle elongation and flexibility. 4. A lack of power development exercises, such as Plyometrics -- an effective training method that conditions you to combine maximal speed and strength to improve your performance. 5. Under
use of sprint/interval training. 6. Doesn't
explain or guide you through the Four Phases of Strength Training. 7.
Includes exercises that place your shoulder in positions that can weaken
or damage this joint. 8. You are
experiencing excessive pain after workouts.
9. Doesn't
fully explain or illustrate how to properly perform lifts or drills. 10. Lacks
supervision from or access to an experienced strength and conditioning
specialist with experience in baseball and softball to monitor your
progress
