How to Change Your Pushing Arm Action

In this video I discuss what a pushing vs pulling arm action is, what the causes of a pushing arm action are, and how we improve it, including a drill series.

Could u do a video of how the arm path is to release of the ball.

🔥🔥

Does this help catchers?

[@TylerAnzmann]

Yes, these concepts are helpful for catchers as well

I understand your reasoning for not leading with your elbow but I think Trevor Bauer would say otherwise

[@TylerAnzmann]

I don't know that he would

@@moshegraves3514 I've seen the video you're talking about. You're elbow is always going to lead slightly, but the keyword here is "slightly". The issue comes when you start leading with it so much, that it becomes a more tricep driven move than a pull from the pec. Hopefully that makes a little bit of sense.

This is nonsense due to lack of physics know-how. What you call the pushing action can be used to increase arm speed. Instead of designating this as pushing in fact, when the elbow leads the forearm arm speed is increased via 3rd Class leverage of the humerus (upper arm) by converting power generated at the shoulder (fulcrum) into speed of the lever. Hence, all that attaches forward of the elbow - forearm, hand and fingers reaches maximum speed.

[@TylerAnzmann]

It’s crazy that anyone other than you could possibly have any “physics know-how.” If you watch and listen to the video carefully, nowhere do I suggest that the elbow does not lead the forearm, or that the arm is anything other than a third class lever in this scenario, but rather it’s a matter of the palate the arm moves through and the timing of elbow extension
