Baseball Rebellion Weekly Review
We encounter hundreds of clients a week here at Baseball Rebellion. Each with their own individual program set up to ensure they maximize their development.
Different athletes require different cues and drills to help them learn. Each day we post a different drill that was used in lessons to help a certain hitter achieve the change they are looking for. This article reviews each drill and explains how they can help your hitter.

- Maintain balance during the stride
- Allows for the back foot to remain stable throughout the loading process
Stop Swings

Banded Back Hip Load
