Speed is always trained in a backwards way in baseball. If you don't know how to solve this speed problem you will never achieved peak performance on a consistent level.
The way that speed is usually trained is done in the following manner:
- Learn the basics in baseball
- Practice these basics at slow speed
- Then they'll train at fast speed
- Finally they want to achieve the fastest speed possible
- Now they'll hope or assume that when they need this speed that it will be there at the right time during their performance.
Although the above sequence will produce some level of speed it won't work in the long run because there isn't any control over this speed process.
The proper way of learning speed should be done in following way:
1. Learn the basic movements and techniques at slow speed. This will enable you to feel, assess and control all your movements at the proper level of speed because you'll have the proper amount of time to go through this process.
2. Then you should only go to medium speed because now you have some knowledge and training so you should be able to advance to medium speed while still having the proper form and techniques of the basics.
3. Only after you've gone through Slow and Medium speed should you attempt to train at Fast speed. Now you will be ready and able to achieve peak levels of speed because you've gone through the natural progression of Slow, Medium and Fast.
With all of this said the reason athletes train ass-backwards is because they only train on the physical side.
This is ok to a certain extent but you need to do is to train your mind in order to have it control the exact speed of your body. Where 100% of the players focus on the physical side they should focus on learning speed through their minds first. There is a simple technique that once you use it with your mind will enable players to master and control the exact speed they want instantly.
What this technique will produce for you is it will enable you to achieve peak speeds to your level of skill and training. The nice thing about this speed training is it will reduce the amount of training time while giving control over your speed while maintaining a consistent performance in baseball.
