Be In The Moment
I speak to many athletes on a daily basis that are thinking to much in the past or future. To perform at a high level you need to be in the present moment. This means forgetting the past and focus on the now this will help keep you focused on the process. The process is what allows us to improve as athletes (ie: training) and to finish the process is to execute what you worked on in training and utilizing it on the playing field.
Be in the now and you will know how!!

Visual Training
Take a look at this video and see how many pitches you can recognize. How much time do u have to see the pitch location, the pitch selection and try and hit it? Average MLB pitcher 2 tenth's of a second. That's right. So my question is what are you doing for your visual side of the game to slow it down? Get my visual trainer on ricksaggese.com and slow the game down!

Importance of Flexibility
I recently was able to have lunch with one of the best stretching coaches in the country in Aaron Mattes. As we had a very good conversation about the importance of flexibility in sports he told me one thing that stuck with me and that was the average player can increase their performance greatly if they can enhance their flexibility. It's important to make stretching a daily routine not just when you exercise. Baseball and Softball is an explosive sport and to be explosive you need flexible muscles. Don't drop the ball and remember stretch at least once a day using AIS (Active Isolated Stretching).
