Short Summary
- Justin from Ultimate Baseball Training introduces a pitching drill called the towel drill.
- The towel drill helps pitchers refine their mechanics without the strain of throwing a real baseball.
- This drill can be performed alone at home, preferably in front of a mirror for self-assessment.
- To perform the drill, you need a towel and your glove.
- Justin explains how to simulate a pitching motion by holding the towel, finding a balance point, and whipping the towel at the end of the motion.
- The drill mimics the release of a baseball and emphasizes the importance of measuring stride length and aiming for a target to improve accuracy.
- Justin describes two variations of the drill: one focusing on releasing the towel in front of the body and another aiming for a higher release point.
- The towel drill provides instant feedback through the sound of the towel, helping pitchers develop better arm action and force.
