[12 piece bucket]

Bucket,
We focus on two things with the hips ,creating hip rotational speed and stabilizing the lower body at impact.
The hips are designed to rotate perpendicular to the spine. In tennis, baseball and golf the hip rotation is the same.In all three sports the body have similar movement patterns and create body segments speeds the same. The kinetic link is the same. They all use 6-m-1 starting from the ground up, the two factors which drive 6-M-1 is Conservation of momentum and muscular loading.

6-m-1 is how the body wants to naturally move and naturally transfers speed from one segment to another and finally transfered to the club or bat.Muscular loading is the engine which creates the speed in each body segment.

We use all types of techniques to train movement patterns and depends on the data to what type of training we provide to each athlete. Every athlete is different and has different movement issues. So once we measure their movement patterns then we devise a program for that athlete.
We don't teach people on practice fairway or striking a golf ball.
We train them how to develop the right movement patterns and when they play golf this naturally happens. Once your body learns 6-m-1 this becomes automatic this is natural way the body wants to move and create speed.

I'm certainly interested in the excercises you use for sure. But I think one thing that we have to keep in mind in studying the similarities of the motions is the amount of precision required in the sport. I was talking to Eddie Cox a little about this. Sure there are some similarities in baseball with regards to the movement . . . HOWVER . . . in baseball you can hit a ball to left or right field and still hit a "good shot".

It would be nice to have a discussion of the exercises you use if it's appropriate with Lynn and you are willing to discuss. I would be very interested to learn more.

Thanks again for posting.
