It’s All About Degrees of Freedom!

When it comes to throwing harder, hitting farther, and staying healthy — it’s not just strength or mechanics…

It’s all about Degrees of Freedom.

So what does that mean? 🤔

The more functional range of motion a player develops — in their hips, thoracic spine, and shoulders —
👉 the more potential energy they can store,
👉 the longer they can apply force,
👉 and the smoother they can transfer energy through the chain.

That’s what creates that effortless “Flow” you see in elite movers.

💥 Why It Matters

Players with limited range of motion hit “hard stops” in their movement.
When you run out of motion — the stress has to go somewhere...
usually the elbow, shoulder, or low back.

But when you build athletic degrees of freedom through movement training, your body can dissipate force, not absorb it.
You’re not just more powerful — you’re more durable.

This is exactly why Baseball Flows focuses on training movement patterns and joint mobility before layering in strength and skill.
We don’t just want players to move stronger — we want them to move freer.

🧠 Research-Backed Movement Training

Research in biomechanics and motor control (Panjabi, 1992; Kolar et al., 2013, Prague School of Rehabilitation) shows that increased joint mobility and neuromuscular coordination allows athletes to better control and distribute force — reducing injury risk and improving performance efficiency.

That’s the science behind Flow.

💪 In-season and off-season training — Build Freedom Before Force

Our Baseball Flows Program is designed to build those athletic ranges — training mobility, coordination, and rhythm — so your player can move like an athlete before they move like a pro.

Because when you have more freedom to move…
you have more freedom to perform.
