Tweetable Quotes:

“I have a very strong bias for balance. I think it is elemental to the way bodies move.”
“I really think throwing is the best ways that really exemplify how our bodies should move when we hit.”
“We really hit balls in a line and in a rectangle.”
“The thing with tennis, all the bodies are different. So there is variation of how guys create power, but they also need to be consistent, they need to hit the ball in a certain direction.”
“‘I worked really hard to hit that home run.’ No, you hit that homerun because you were clean and efficient with your body.”
“Most young hitters and a lot of professional hitters have big shoulder moves. And if we don’t get those out of them, they aren’t going any farther.”
“Once we get down to balance, the one key I want and give people is, you have to hit through every pitch you see.” -
“Train young hitters so that they have the same basic moves that they’re going to have up the latter, and their adjustments become internal.”
