Screen Transitions not Positions: The New Era of Movement Screenings

Dr. Gallo Curveball: Baseball Flows Newsletter

Dear Baseball Flows Community,

Welcome to the latest edition of the Dr. Gallo Curveball: Baseball Flows Newsletter! Today, we dive into an essential aspect of our training philosophy—the revolutionary approach to movement screening that sets Baseball Flows apart from the rest.

In the world of baseball and softball, assessing an athlete's movement system has long been viewed as a complex puzzle. Many traditional screening methods break down the body into isolated parts, attempting to decipher the intricate details of each component. However, this fragmented approach often fails to comprehensively understand an athlete's movement system.

At Baseball Flows, we believe in a different approach—one that examines the entirety of the movement system rather than isolated parts. Our unique method, known as Baseball Flows global pattern screening (GPS) allows us to uncover the secrets hidden within an athlete's movement patterns.

Instead of focusing solely on individual positions, our holistic screening delves deep into the interconnectedness of movement, capturing the essence of how athletes transition from one athletic developmental pattern to the next. We recognize that the magic happens in these liminal spaces, where the body remains connected, allowing for fluid and dynamic movement on the field.

We gain profound insights into an athlete's unique movement signature by analyzing the complete movement system. This holistic perspective reveals the underlying patterns and strategies that shape their performance. It goes beyond the surface-level analysis of isolated parts, empowering coaches to truly understand an athlete's movement capacity and preferred strategies.

Why Transitions Matter

Transitions are the secret sauce that connects the dots in an athlete's movement journey. They are the threads that weave together various components of athleticism, such as agility, coordination, and dynamic control. Neglecting to address transitions in movement screenings would be akin to missing the pivotal moments that define an athlete's performance.

The Baseball Flows Difference

At Baseball Flows, we have reimagined the concept of movement screenings, putting a spotlight on transitions as the cornerstone of assessment. Our comprehensive approach allows us to delve into the nuanced details of an athlete's movement system and uncover untapped potential.

By focusing on transitions, we can identify areas where athletes excel and areas where they may need further development. With this knowledge, we can tailor training programs that address specific transition-related challenges, helping athletes elevate their game to new heights.
