MAXX provided this link in the strength forum but I thought some of the info on hitting may be of interest... http://falcon.tamucc.edu/~fspaniol/NSCA/2007%20NSCA%20S...al%20-%20Spaniol.pdf

Could the use of BBV be the real truth re; hitting instruction ? BBV (Batted Ball Velocity) is what every hitter is after. I also found the link between grip strength and BBV interesting, certainly validates some of the "old school" instruction.

The part about grip strength makes perfect sense. A strong grip makes the bat more rigid which makes the bounce off of it bound to be greater.

The crack the whip makes is because the tip is traveling at a great rate of speed. However, because it is flexible you couldn't hit a fastball with it. ; )
