ADDITIONAL TESTIMONIALS

Working with Rick and his staff has been amazing. The program is broken down into steps that will guide you through the process of developing an elite swing. When you combine that with his knowledge of how to apply technology this program is a must for any aspiring player.
From the time I started with Rick every aspect of my swing has improved…plate coverage, power, consistency…I have never been around baseball technology before, and honestly thought it was kind of stupid, until I learned how to use it and it has been a tremendous asset. I looked forward to everyday I got to come hit and learn.
The highlight of my offseason is working with Rick to refine my swing and make sure it is efficient. I have seen firsthand the impact he can have on a player’s career. After struggling in low A and high A my first two seasons in the minor leagues I started working with Rick and the next year I was promoted to AA after a successful spring training.

STRENGTH & CONDITIONING

Baseball relies heavily on fast-twitch muscles. While some elite players were just born with more fast-twitch muscles than others, the rest of us have to work hard to develop them to increase speed, power, and mobility. Our in-house Strength and Conditioning Director, has cultivated player-tested routines that will get you game-ready. If you want to hit the ball further, throw it harder, and run faster, get started with us now.
Our process begins with a baseline read of your personal numbers. We evaluate your athleticism using Kinetisense for movement screenings and Synapse to measure strength. We then put you to work with a battery of exercises designed to make you better. No two players are alike, so don’t expect a cookie-cutter, one size fits all solution.
Depending on your needs, we use a combination of bands, Aquaballs and Aquavests and weights to create explosive power and speed. We also believe in bodyweight exercises that will have you jumping, running, and working your core all over our facility. We target arms, legs, and core to max out your ability.

PITCHING MECHANICS &
ARM CARE

Pinpoint control, a full arsenal of pitches, and lethal velocity at any level are all by-products of stellar mechanics. We use a pro scout system to evaluate pitchers and get them on the path of a repeatable delivery, consistent arm slot, and lower body engagement. Technology is critical to player development. We use Rapsodo, the same tech that elite D1 schools and MLB teams use to measure pitch shape and monitor location.
Our Pitching Director has pulled together a vast library of drills, workouts, and tips to guide player improvement. Establishing a baseline of numbers allows us to chart progress as the player puts in the work. Routines will change from player to player and evolve over a period of time.
Arm care is a central feature of the TWRSB approach. Players are given an app that helps us design exercise routines and monitors progress in real-time. We teach band work, pre- and post-throwing routines, and recovery.
We pay particular attention to pitching muscle groups to ensure power and safety. Scapular development, accelerator, and decelerator muscles, and rotator cuff are on our radar screen. We geek out over “kinematic sequence patterns,” how efficiently the body moves from windup to delivery. Simply put, we’ll clean up your delivery and max your efficiency.
A hallmark of our program is Pitch Design. Our players greatly benefit from Raposodo’s ability to measure the spin rate and ball axis while plotting pitch trajectory. If we’re getting a little too nerdy, don’t worry! Our coaches will break it down for you.

HITTING MECHANICS & POWER

Hitting the ball with power and consistency is what every player is looking for, so why do most facilities tell you how awesome they were when they played the game? Our guys played at the highest levels too, but our goal is to make you better, now. Like today.
Our Hitting Director’s focus is on swing mechanics. Hit the ball hard where they ain’t! Technique is key to unleashing your power. Proper mechanics address stance, footwork, barrel path and energy transfer.
The batter’s box can be a lonely place! Our coaches, don’t neglect the mental side of hitting. From preparation to execution to high stakes pressure hitting, our coaches have walked a mile in your cleats. They will prepare you to hit an 0-2 pitch with RISP.
Situational hitting is part art and part science. Our approach will back up your swing with a confidence-building strategy before you step in the box. For swing analysis, we take a deep dive into the numbers using Rapsodo as our guide. The radar and camera system allow our coaches to break your swing into bite-size coachable components to help you improve. Instant analysis of exit velocity, launch angle, and exit direction will increase your ability.
If you are looking to maximize your power while making consistent contact, reach out now, and schedule a hitting evaluation to get started.

BASEBALL TECHNOLOGY

TWRSB believes baseball tech is at its best when paired with an experienced coach who knows how to use it to enhance player performance. With so many products from high-speed cameras, to digital overlays to radar, we are living in a golden age of data analytics that is transforming the game.
There is no other coach in the country that has Coach Strickland’s tech resume. He has been at the forefront of the revolution at ground level. He helped pioneer Rapsodo data. He worked with developers on the Uplift coaching app. He gave out Motus sleeves to his top players. He was an early adopter on Blast Motion, cataloging 50,000 swings. He can tell you what it takes to hit a ball with authority.
He played pro ball when there was little to no tech in the game, so for him, any additional information above the naked eye gives a competitive advantage. “The trick is making sure your players understand the feedback and guiding them through adjustments. Knowledge is power and the more data we get, the more powerful we become.”
TWRSB is an industry leader in harnessing the true power of tech for player development. From training and conditioning to hitting and pitching, the facility is wired wall-to-wall. Players looking for digital feedback to monitor and measure their performance, should reach out now for an evaluation and see how tech can help you improve today.
