Dear Baseball Flows Family,

Let’s talk about something that’s rarely taught—but absolutely critical to every throw your player makes:

The arm doesn’t lead. The body does.

In fact, the Pelvis and Deep Core escort the arm. Like a Secret Service detail guarding the President, the core and pelvis set the direction, create the force, and protect the arm from overwork and injury.

So what does that actually mean?

Let’s break it down with a few visuals 👇

Imagine this:
Your arm is a slingshot.

But what good is a slingshot without tension in the bands or stability in the grip?

That’s what happens when players try to throw with just their arm. No tension. No foundation. No control.

Now imagine this instead:

Your hips load like a spring.
Your core rotates like a coiled snake.
Your pelvis clears the way like a train turning on a track.

And THEN—only then—your arm comes through… effortlessly.

That’s called Flow.
And yes—it’s trainable.

The 5-Point Movement Checklist 🧠

Here’s what we focus on inside the Baseball Flows app to make this magic happen:

👉 Relax the Shoulders
You can't move fast if you're tight. Most youth players are so tense, they throw like they’re bracing for a car crash.

👉 Hinge Inside the Back Hip
Think of your back hip like the launch pad for a rocket. No hinge = no power = no lift-off.

👉 Don’t Reach with the Front Leg
Reaching is like slamming on the brakes during a sprint. It kills momentum and ruins timing. Instead, we teach players to glide into the front leg with control.

👉 Rotate the Pelvis Like a Beast
The pelvis is the steering wheel and the gas pedal. If it doesn’t rotate, your throw is like a car stuck in neutral.

👉 Baseball Flow
It’s the art of putting it all together. Smooth. Explosive. Connected. This is the difference between kids who throw hard with ease… and those who max out and get hurt.

Movement Over Mechanics

We’re not saying mechanics don’t matter. We’re saying they’re incomplete without the movement foundation underneath.

Think about it like this:
🧱 Mechanics are the blueprint.
⚙️ Movement is the electricity, plumbing, and foundation.

You wouldn’t build a house without a solid base, right?

So why train your player’s throw without training their mobility, stability, and coordination first?

Here's the best part:

All of this is built into our Baseball Flows App.

🕐 20 minutes a day
🏡 Can be done at home
👣 No equipment needed
🎯 Designed by a former pro + PT (that’s me!)

We’re giving your athlete the tools to:

✅ Throw harder
✅ Move smoother
✅ Stay healthier
✅ Build confidence from the ground up

This is how we train Flow.

This is how we future-proof your player’s arm.

And this is why so many players are starting to break out—not just because they work hard… but because they move well.
