Are you a player who wants more POP in your bat? Would the following hitting attributes be helpful to you?
Then my specialized hitting power training program is exactly what you're looking for, and you'll see noticeable results in just weeks! Even better, no special equipment is required.
First, 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, along with my work for the Saltdogs. 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. Click Here For Hard Copy Booklets What you'll learn is what I teach my private students, who pay me by the hour for my services. My programs are being used successfully by THOUSANDS of players from around the world, from Little League through college (baseball and softball) and professional baseball - men and women, girls and boys, including adult recreational leagues. Pretty much the whole spectrum of ball players! 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 and now teach to my players and students.
Click Here For Hard Copy Booklets 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! My point is this: Baseball and Softball are games 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. 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! If you want to increase a sport-specific skill like bat speed, it takes more than just lifting weights. A lack of understanding of these principles is a shortcoming common to many "trainers" and their programs. Lifting and getting big and strong does not necessarily equate to hitting more home runs. If so, we'd be seeing guys like this in the major leagues! Don't get me wrong - weight lifting has its place in the training and preparation of ALL ball players. I design weight lifting programs for many of my baseball and softball clients. I have also written a strength and conditioning program for baseball and softball players which you can learn more about by scrolling further down this page. Just be sure that whatever program you use, it is designed by someone who knows both baseball and biomechanics. Click Here For Hard Copy Booklets 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 can enhance
your game.
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. Practicing with wood will train you to refine 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! 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. 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. Click Here For Hard Copy Booklets 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 and softball, as in most areas of life. Why should you not swing a heavy implement while in the on-deck circle? Because it fatigues the fast-twitch muscle fibers you will momentarily be using at the plate! So if you shouldn't use a
heavy donut or swing several bats Get a copy of the Baseball/Softball Program to Increase Bat Speed & Hitting Power, 2nd Edition and find out! If you do, here's what you'll get:

Baseball Pitching 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 – Click Here For Hard Copy Booklets
Hey,
ya gotta play defense, right – pitching, catching, infield, outfield?
Why
Andy went on to report, "In my first collegiate start, I hit my spots and got stronger as the game progressed. I threw a complete game with 10 Ks and 3 hits allowed as we won, 2-1." A rather impressive start to a promising college career, I'd say. And as great as Andy's experience has been, his is but one of many letters I receive from ball players around the world who are having similar success using my training programs. First, 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 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 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 Here For Hard Copy Booklets 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 baseball/softball specific strength and conditioning program 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/softball 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/softball 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 does very little to improve baseball/softball 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 thingIn the BASEBALL/SOFTBALL 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) OR 6.5 oz. ball (softball) is one of them Click Here For Hard Copy Booklets So, if what you're looking for is a proven way to INCREASE YOUR ABILITY TO THROW HARDER, the BASEBALL/SOFTBALL 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. Ask yourself—would you like any of the following to happen to you?
If you haven’t experienced the thrill of changing the face of a softball or baseball game with your arm, you’re missing out on one of the best parts of playing! With my guidance, you can accomplish these kinds of things, as have the many baseball and softball players who have already used this program. I'm giving you all the information you need, including this - Special Bonus #1 No arm workout to build throwing strength would be complete without specific advice and instruction on how to keep the Rotator Cuff healthy and strong.

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 and softball, 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

1. Dedicating more than 10-15 minutes per session on

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

2:
Usually begins 6 weeks into your training program is the strength building
phase. In this phase we’ll perform each exercise using 80-90% of your
maximum weight. Phase
3: Begins
after about 12 weeks of training; this is the power building phase and
requires you to use about 85-95% of your maximum weight for each exercise. Phase
4: The
in-season or maintenance phase, helps you keep your gains and stay healthy
all season long.

to ensure your training is safe and effective, you're given the exact
number of sets, repetitions, the percentage of your 1 repetition maximum (RM)
