Petlius Peevii

Some of my pet peeves in regards to hitting...pardon my poor latin skills (pig latin would've been easier).<g>

Swinging a weighted bat anytime or anywhere (see bat weight and slot position muscle memory destruction blog). 

Over 10 minute Drills or isolated skill work...hitting or otherwise (See Innervation/Mind Mush blog...again, destruction of good muscle memory)

Lack of a professional approach to hitting (not having a plan, i.e., no Timing Activation or Recycling during an at bat is a plan for poor performance...see Timing Activation and Recycling blogs)

Not putting in the work (see 70% Mental, 15% Vision, & 15% Vision Hitting Formula blog)

Not narrowing the hitting zone to the middle 10 inches of the plate and expanding out to 17 inches until there's 2 strikes in the count (see hitting approach blog).

Being a hands hitter instead of a slot position swing hitter (see slot position swing blog).

The biggie...harmful advice or instruction,...especially bio-mechanical, dynamic vision, physics, etc., that's not research based via science or education and offered as factual.
