Stop Wrist Flicks. Stop L-Drills. Throwing is not about getting to a position. It’s about moving THROUGH those positions. If we want to create quality movement and fluidity, why are we starting with static set-ups? 🤦🏻‍♂️

Where the ball is fielded/received/ situation determines how the body moves. Focus on movement THROUGH positions. Not getting to a position. When trunk orientation changes, so does release. Lead arm clears to allow hips to open, trunk to rotate. @jenn_salling with the demo! #HLT
