  BOOKLET DESCRIPTION: The Baseball Program to Increase Bat Speed & Hitting Power, 2nd Edition, is intended for coaches, parents and players at all levels of the game. Literally thousands of baseball players throughout the world, from Little League through college and the professional ranks, are dramatically improving not only their bat speed and hitting power, but their reaction time and ability to "wait" on pitches, leading to greatly improved performance at the plate.

  •   Suitable for all age groups and ability levels, it incorporates the proven training principle known as OverLOAD/OverSPEED training. While this type of training is relatively new to baseball, it has been used safely and successfully for decades by the NFL, NBA, NHL and Olympic Swimmers and Track and Field Athletes, amongst others.

  Updated with new, effective exercises, illustrations, and clear, well-written explanations, the Baseball Program to Increase Bat Speed & Hitting Power, 2nd Edition is the ultimate guide to what it takes to improve any ball player's ability to hit the ball long and hard!
