Reply to "Making every swing purposeful"

The best advice for learning to hit is - slow down, take your time and take a break after 7 cuts.  Doesn't matter what philosophy, drills, technique......whatever.  If you're rushing through it or not paying attention to what you're doing it will go wrong.

 

Nobody is putting quarters in a machine where you have a limited amount of time between pitches.  Even in practice during team BP you can slow down.  The faster you work the more likely of mistakes creep in which lead to bad habits.

 

After about 7 cuts you start to feel the tired in your arms.  So once you get past that 7th swing you end up doing things wrong.  Take a break, get some water, catch your breath, go field some grounders, whatever - then come back and take some more.
