If you want to hit the ball harder and deeper - you've got to use the Overload and Underload Hitting Protocol. Research has shown that it can improve your bat speed by a few MPH!
Overload and Underload Hitting Protocol
Purpose: To increase bat speed
Instructions: Every swing should be a full cut with proper mechanics. You want 100% effort in eachswing. Very important to induce adaptations.This protocol takes about 10 minutes to do and needs to be done twice a week to be effective.
Equipment:
• Regular bat
• Broomstick or very light bat (less than 20 oz)
• Heavier bat (28-32 oz)
Protocol:
3 cycles of:
• 10 swings with regular bat
• 10 swings with heavier bat
• 10 swings with lighter bat
• 10 swings with regular bat
Take a 2 minute break between each cycle.
Your goal is to maintain you normal bat speed when swinging the heavier bat, to increase your normal bat speed with the lighter one and to keep the increased bat speed when picking up the regular bat again.
