CHIPS Performance Training

As a catcher you are in a position of service, but some things still get on your nerves. Like when a coach forgets about your batting practice, it happens to the best of us. Or when you’re catching a bullpen and the pitcher doesn’t thank you after. Playing on a dirt field and you’re stuck in a hole behind the plate, not really a problem when playing on turf. Or just having a beautiful face you have to cover with a mask. When you get hit below the belt, that’s the worst. Fortunately they have things that can help that now, like the @ThighPro that has cushioning in the spots of your legs that aren’t protected. Remember the 3 N’s: Neck, kNuckles, and Nuts. #baseball #baseballlife #baseballtiktoks #fyp #baseballplayer #baseballseason #baseballboys #baseballboys #athlete #highschoolbaseball #homerun #collegebaseball #baseballswag #catching #baseballszn

Coaches pet peeves can vary from coach to coach, but these are universal: 1. Not hustling. 2. Taking at bats into the field. 3. Strike outs without swinging. Use code “CHIPS10” for 10% off Old Hickory🔥 4. Bad base running. 5. Pouting. Any probably the most annoying… 6. Playing down to your competition. Play one way, and make that your standard. Your effort, preparation and intensity are all controllable. Like the glove?

The reason the strike out is called a “K” is because all the letters were taken, you can’t double up. Back in the day they had measured everything in letters, rather than numbers. The “S” was for single, “T” for triple, “I” for inning so the “K” was what was left! The more you know. Like the glove?

I was talking to a power 4 coach the other day about what he looks for when scouting. People get so mad about this, but it hasn’t changed in years. 1. Hip mobility. If a catcher doesn’t have hip mobility, he’s not going to be able to stay a catcher. 2. Ball security. Not having the ball hit off your glove, or ruining the rhythm for your pitcher. Catching the ball everytime and keeping control of it. 3. Hitting. Use code “CHIPS” for 25% off Triple Crown Jewelry👑 4. Throwing runners out. 5. Blocking. 6. Commanding the field. 7. Receiving. Use code “CHIPS” for free shipping from Bruce Bolt⚡️ If your catching coach tells you different, that’s fine. For what it’s worth, the college coach said, “we can teach anyone to receive when they get here, but 1-6 are harder to teach.” Like the catchers mitt?

Let me help you save pitches this spring. Stop throwing waste pitches with 0-2 counts. Use code “CHIPS” for free shipping from Bruce Bolt⚡️ Every pitch should set up the last pitch, so the batter should already be set up. Statistically his worst odds should be 0-2. Let’s say you get 6 0-2 a game. You give up one hit, but you saved 2 to 3 pitches by not throwing a waste pitch, falling back to 3-2 and potentially walking him. Like the glove? It’s exclusively from Better Baseball, check them out!🔥 This is going to save you at least 2-3 pitches an at bat, and let’s say you do get 6 hitters to 0-2 counts. You then save 12-18 pitches. That’s a whole inning. Do you want to go 4 innings, 5 innings, 6 innings or possibly a complete game? Thats up to you. #baseball #baseballlife #baseballtiktoks #fyp #baseballplayer #baseballseason #baseballboys #athlete #highschoolbaseball #homerun #collegebaseball #baseballszn #pitching

As somebody who got their college paid for from their catch and throw, you can take this to the bank. Get rid of the ball as soon as your front foot hits the ground. Use code “CHIPS” for 25% off Triple Crown Jewelry👑 I tested this religiously in high school. At 80mph I was a 1.86. At 84mph I was a 1.96. At 79mph I was a 1.78. Use code “CHIPS” for free shipping from Bruce Bolt⚡️ Don’t muscle up to throw the ball and get rid of it. Don’t pull it back too far, don’t have a long path with your hand. Turn and get rid of it. A ball in the air is gonna be a lot faster than a ball in your hand. Like the catchers mitt?

One of the best ways to increase your power is adding in a heavy bat to your drills. You don’t have to do a ton of them, but mix in sets of 5 especially in the off season. During the season add in 2 or 3 so you don’t mess up your timing too much. If you don’t believe me, watch Bobby Witt Jr, one of many MLB players on the app, do the same exact drills. The Futures App is a great resource to have when you need to get drills on the go or to get specific instructions from your coach when you don’t know exactly what to do. Whether you’re a coach, instructor, player or parent, take out some of the guess work and make it easier on yourself.

If your hat is flying off when you’re pitching, it’s not a hat problem. It’s a you problem. MLB pitchers that throw up to 100mph don’t even have their hats flying. That’s because their head isn’t moving too much. When your hat flies off, your head is moving too much. Use code “CHIPS” for free shipping from Bruce Bolt⚡️ You should be able to sit your hat on the top of your head and throw fastballs. If your hat is flying off, get a smaller hat or stop moving your head so much. Like the glove?

The easiest way to throw harder, is to put weight on. You have to eat. Use code “CHIPS” for 25% off Triple Crown Jewelry👑 I had a player struggling to put weight on and I told him to eat 2 PB&J’s and a big glass of milk before dinner, and he astonishingly put on 10 pound in 2 weeks and threw 6 miles per hour harder.
