Doesn’t matter the sport, everyone wants to be fast. Unfortunately, not everyone is, but everyone can surely get faster. This comes down to a few key principles, and it’s not just about running a faster baseball 60 yard dash. We have now developed a 10-week speed training program for baseball players to help improve speed.
The program entails:
-
- Speed Training Warm-up – Being explosive and running (and stopping) quickly can be very taxing on not only the muscles and joints, but the central nervous system as well. It is imperative to perform a proper warm up for speed training which includes, soft tissue work, activation, mobility and dynamic movement.
- Linear Acceleration – Linear acceleration means getting our center of mass moving as quickly as possible moving forward. It obviously relates to many sports, but is best put to use on the baseball field in the form of base running, stealing and in the outfield.
- Lateral Acceleration / Base Stealing – Lateral acceleration is where a baseball players can separate himself among the pack. The ability to accelerate or change direction quickly while maintaining an athletic posture sets a ball player up, not only from a performance standpoint, but also visually speaks volumes about his athleticism during any recruiting process.
