What Does "Getting Stuck" Over the Rubber Even Mean?

We are trying to make a breakthrough this offseason… this will help ME understand what he is trying to do. (He has trainers, I just want to know what to look for if it is not improving)

keep your head over your back hip or even with your pelvis instead of over your back foot be a good way to think about it?

What drills could be done to work on this?

[@rslwannabe9475]

What would happen if a 9 foot 10 660 pound man of muscle got on the mound, with perfect mechanics, and threw? Not to even mention how upwards the hitters would have to swing to stay in the plane.

what was the difference in Velo between the two?

[@treadathletics]

This specific example was not measured given it was sub max to determine fluctuation. As mentioned in the video, the multiple big leaguers who have experienced this transition from an efficient first move to “staying back” over the rubber saw a 3+ mph loss in average velocity over time.
