8/16 deliberate practice session

technique: cocking the hips
goals: to see noticeable hip cock in a session of front toss
feedback: camera

1) attack hips to band and work on cocking them:
6 sets of 20
superset with:
20 hip cocks in mirror

2) session of front toss: 20 swings, focusing on hip cock

3) evaluate on camera how well i cocked my hips, and evaluate first step: technique in a smaller session


2.



in the movie-player analysis, it seems that their is visible foot, knee, leg, and hip cock, so the drills that I did prior should be included in m daily routine because they seemed to be productive and worth while.

in other areas:

my heel timing is poor, and overall use of my legs isn't near where I'd like it to be. this is my biggest priority right now.

my follow through and shoulder rotation seems awkward and not ideal.
left arm snap is decent, and my load is decent.

the barrel path, which is straight to the ball on a downward diagonal, has improved and I like it. I'm hitting the ball deeper because of it too.

Also, the back elbow is slotting with the hands back very nicely, which is a very positive thing for me.
