Poor hip hinge awareness: leads to poor posture due to the interdependence of the pelvis and spine, which decreases force production and direction 7/12

Kyphosis with forward head posture: flexed thoracic spine leads to poor deep neck flexors activation, which leads to poor stabilization of the head when pitching or hitting 5/12

Rib flare: poor activation of the diaphragm and obliques leads to increased low back extension and inefficient hip to shoulder separation closure 4/12

Rectus abdominis dominant: leads to a flexed posture due to the muscle imbalance of the back extensors and flexors, which is a posture and performance killer 3/12

Decreased hip range of motion: limited hip mobility in all directions will effect the players ability to maintain their posture and get into their lower half when hitting or pitching 2/12
