      Hitting Consultant & High Performance Trainer

      As our name states "Think Outside The Diamond" is what we are trying to execute and educate with our athletes in whatever sport they play. Many times it's the smaller aspects that makes the biggest performance change because the development of an athlete doesn’t stop with an adjustment to the arm angle or body position. To ensure lasting success, we work on all facets of the athlete’s game, including soft tissue pliability treatment, visual training, mental conditioning, core training, flexibility, strength, quickness and agility training, hand/eye coordination reaction patterning exercises, plyometrics, recovery/regeneration, sports nutrition, and athlete life skills (leadership, accountability and goal setting). We use cutting edge equipment during our training such as the Powerplate, Keiser Functional Trainer, Versa Climber and BEMER Vascular Therapy to aid in regeneration and recovery.To perfect the skills we also believe data is important for maximum efficiency. To assist with this we use at the majority of our sessions the same training devices the professional athletes use such as the Win Virtual Reality, K Motion 3D Evaluation/Biofeedback system, Fitlight training system, Rapsodo, Boditrak, Stalker/Pocket radar, and the Diamond Kinetics pitch tracker smart baseball. We also use V1 sports software for all our video skill analysis.We have consulted with many coaches, facility owners and parents as we share our proven methodology that has been successfully implemented the past 20+ years in our industry.
