You'll get instant access to Video Tip 1, and then you'll receive another installment link in your email every-other-day until you complete all 6 tips.
Can Speed Really Be Improved?
ABSOLUTELY! While it is true that some players are born with genetic advantages over others, most run at speeds well below their genetic ceiling. It's important to understand that running fast is not purely physical. By incorporating proper mental habits, a well-rounded training program, an understanding of the type of run that you are doing, and proper sprinting mechanics, speed for baseball can be improved greatly (and often noticed in the first training session)!
60 Yard Dash Secrets will show you:
- How to change your steal-start technique to improve your 60 time by as much as .30 in one day (believe it or not... I've actually seen better results than this, but it would sound to good to be true)!
- Why the 60 yard dash is different than other speed tests and how to manipulate all of the variables so that they are in your favor.
- How to improve your running mechanics to not only improve your 60-yard dash, but also your home-to-first time, and base stealing ability.
- Why your mental habits are much more important than you might think in terms of running and how to actually improve them.
And much, much more...
What Could More Speed Mean to You? - More playing time.
- The ability to appear to be a better hitter. More infield hits = a higher batting average.
- Perhaps Millions of $$$ if you are able to improve your draft standing.
- More realistically, a college scholarship -
- (which for some equates to a total savings of over $100,000).
- And probably most important...
The ability to get to the next level. If speed is the deciding factor in determining if you make a pro, college, high-school, or travel ball team, then speed gave you the opportunity to make some memories that will last a lifetime!
So What Did More Speed Mean for Joe?
Here is a player that had every other tool, but speed. Had he not gained speed he would have never been able to earn a Division I scholarship and hit a home run in Rosenblatt Stadium, the home of the College World Series. Had he not gained speed, he would have never been able to receive a paycheck for playing baseball and live the minor league life of long road trips and small towns. Had he not gained speed, he would have never been able to play on the Italian National Team and travel all over Europe, Cuba, and Taiwan. He gained memories and stories to tell his family, friends, children, and grandchildren for the rest of his life. All because he gained a few tenths-of-a-second!
Meet Your "Baseball Speed Coach"...
Hi my name is Thurman Hendrix. As a sports performance and speed coach, I've helped thousands of athletes get to the next level by improving their sport-specific speed. Now I want to help you.
A little more about me: - Former Professional Baseball Player
- Master's Degree in Exercise Science
- Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist (C.S.C.S.) from the National Strength & Conditioning Association (N.S.C.A.)
- Have trained baseball players from the following organizations:
- Baltimore Orioles
- Boston Red Sox
- Chicago White Sox
- Cincinnati Reds
- Detroit Tigers
- Florida Marlins
- Minnesota Twins
- New York Mets
- Oakland Athletics
- San Francisco Giants
- Washington Nationals
Even though I have trained many professional baseball players, a majority of my clients are high school or college athletes looking to either get drafted, earn a scholarship, increase their playing time, or simply make a team.
As a former pro baseball player myself, I completely understand the baseball recruiting process and how difficult it can be to stick out and get noticed by coaches or scouts. At most showcase camps, the 60 yard dash is usually the first thing that is performed after the warm-up. Many coaches will use this test to weed players out. In other words, if you do not run a certain time that is appropriate for your position they may cross out your name and not even look at what you do during the rest of the showcase.
I do not feel that the 60 yard dash is the best test to measure baseball speed and I discuss this at great length in 60 Yard Dash Secrets. However, since the 60 is the standard baseball speed measurement, I have studied it for years in order to help my players improve their times and achieve their goals.
I not only teach how to improve "real" speed, but also to understand the unique variables that this test entails. By truly understanding the rules of this assessment and the way in which it is measured, it is very easy to improve your time... and to improve it quickly!More... |
