Agree, giving a task and let the player self adjust their body to make it happen.Ok I watched the video. Thought the guy was going to be an idiot. He was not. What he is describing is an external focus. Talking about a giving task (inside the ball) and seeing improvement in the internal moving parts. Put the ball on the tee (outside and deep) and give the student the task of hitting line drives to the grass to RF. Then move to front toss with the same task. Don't hit into a net. Let the student see the trajectory and absorb the freeback. Check out Gabriel Wulf stuff if you want the science behind it.

Good point. I know sometimes when using this approach that players when adjusting to get the result end up adding some movement that is unnecessary which then becomes a problem to fix.It may work with some kids.. But if one thinks the task will automatically fix how the body needs to move is incorrect.. No different then the ttb queue..
I've watched a lot of his videos. Good outside the box approach. The more you watch though he spends more time telling you what NOT to do than what to do.
