Five Tool Baseball Performance Training (FTBPT) is dedicated to sharing its knowledge, ideas and opinions on baseball performance training based upon field tested experiences as player, coach and baseball strength & conditioning coach. Proper exercise technique ( to ensure effective & efficient training programs) and baseball related movement patterns are implemented to maximize on-field performance. Emphasis is placed on movement based training which integrates multiple muscle groups. This approach has a greater transfer to on-field performance and can minimize the incidence and risk of injury. 
 If a game is being played you can be sure Im watching it from home or from the stands. Many of my own workouts involve designing/creating out-of-the-box exercises & programs to enhance performance and movement unique to baseball

Core Stiffness Series : #1 ANTI-ROTATION


When training core stability, or core stiffness as I like to reference it, consider a series of movement patterns that address the following: anti-rotation, anti-extension, anti-flexion and anti-lateral flexion. First up is an example of anti-rotation... a simple cable push-out which has also been referred to as the Pallof Cable Press.
