Front foot landing | Talk Pitching | TopVelocity Baseball Forum

brent,

When should our front foot land? I want to say it is immediately after 3x. My reason for asking this is because sometimes I feel like I keep my front foot from landing and I just continue to throw it out there. It almost feels like when I land it is difficult to get everything going towards the plate to throw with any velocity. I am thinking that if I can powerfully extend my back leg and then land right away everything will catapult forward with more speed. I also feel like because my front leg continues to reach out my shoulders eventually just go with it and open up to soon and I cannot maintain separation. So again, I think if I extend and then get my foot down I will have that separation and speed going forward.

In a way I guess I am saying to shorten my stride, but without compromising the actions of the drive leg.
