Baseball and softball training has evolved into a highly specific and scientifically driven endeavor. Today’s baseball and softball athletes require not only physical skills but also the ability to utilize visual processing, such as depth judgment and tracking the speed/flight of the ball, along with coordination of core stabilizer muscles. Consequently, each athlete should focus on enhancing their neurological receptors, improving balance, core strength and stability, and developing fluid movement literacy. These efforts enable athletes to cultivate elite habits.
A common misconception about ‘sport-specific training’ is that it should exclusively mirror the movements of the sport from the outset. However, as athletes grow and mature, emphasizing movement-based training becomes paramount for ensuring correct athletic development. While ‘sport-specific’ training will certainly become part of the regimen, it’s essential for each athlete to develop their own physical literacy.
