Parents: Does your pitcher look like they are "leaning" toward second base during their windup?
At Integrated Performance, we define a stable lead leg lift as the ability to stay completely stacked when reaching maximal leg height. If an athlete shifts laterally, it alters their balance and destroys their ability to produce power from the back leg.
The culprit? Often, it’s limited hip flexion. If the hip can't move freely, the back leg has to "give up" its stability to achieve the leg kick. We fix this by improving glute length, allowing the athlete to stay stable and explosive.
We serve athletes in Westfield, Noblesville, Carmel, and Zionsville with pro-level biomechanical fixes.
