Phanatic said:Make sure you swing both ways with this drill. Magnus is right I just forgot to mention it becuase I switch hit so, I just do it without thinking. You don't want to get too overloaded one way or the other. Also I advise using the heavy bat sorta like a batton. Getting your wrists used to moveing the extra weight generates more snap when you switch to your game bat. If you can roll your wrists with the heavy bat, you can snap them with the light one. I also use the bat for weighted stretching before games.

Never knew you were that way Gary.Gary19 said:You switch hit???????????????????
Access24K said:Hey guys, just hacksawed about 2 inches off a an old walmart bat for my light bat and did this last night, felt pretty good.
A question on switching sides. Are you supposed to do one whole round of the exercises batting right handed and then another round batting left handed? Or do you switch sides everytime you switch bats? Or do you do one side one day and switch sides the next?
Thanks for the help guys, hope this works out for me too.

I'm Trying said:If you are right handed/left handed, you would only do this on your hitting side. If you do switch hit then I would recommend doing left/right on opposite days.
I re-read it and didn't see that implied. I was looking for his email address but cannot find it. I would ask him that question to make sure if I did have it.Piggyn said:I just assumed that he took cuts from both sides in order to avoid developing a muscle imbalance, which could increase the chance of pulling something.

Gary19 said:I know I am a little late to the party, but you use Freak's and 525 in friggin coed????? How sad!
papabear66 said:I just noticed this prick had to comment....Gary, it is a legal bat for ASA and the league approved the balls to be used.....why on earth would that be "SAD"......5 HR's allowed and NOBODY hits middle....ever....sometimes I don't understand the point of your constant negative attitude old shoe
Access24K said:Gotcha, thanks I'm trying. I'll be sure to stick to my hitting side.
Access24K said:Guys, did this for the second time last night and started getting some pain in my elbow when swinging the heavy bat. Anyone else get this and does it go away in with a few more rounds? Or is it likely that I'm doing something wrong? Also, I take it from the responses that we're supposed to do both sides. Is that on the same day? Or do you switch sides when you switch days? It's probably both on the same day.
Okay guys, any help with this elbow thing is appreciated.
Phanatic said:Gary Mike is a beast he does not need to get stronger. I am a 175 pound 5'7" midget and I just tweaked things to try for more power. So far so good 4 homeruns this year after only hitting the fence a few times back when the Ultra II's where legal. Plus I am hitting around .670 up over 200 points from last year before I started the drill.
