  • EP 202: RANT Measure What Matters
    Jun 20 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    In this episode, we dive into why focusing solely on one metric (ie. velocity in training) can be limiting. We discuss the importance of not overlooking other crucial factors like command and movement for a well-rounded player development approach.

    Learn how incorporating diverse metrics such as vertical jump and 60-time runs can provide a more complete assessment of player performance. We also emphasize the value of integrating game-like scenarios in practice, including live batters and runners, to better prepare athletes for real-game situations. Enhance your training with a comprehensive strategy that sets you apart from the competition.
