The pitching body when in proper motion creates a non stop, non hesitating or pausing at the top of the leg lift, leading w/ hip from the rubber to triple extended drive leg ankle, knee and hip flexor, w/ side ways body movement into a stride length of at least matching one's body height into hip to shoulder separation & consists of three body pivots at stride foot touch down, #1.hip pivot, #2. collar pivot, #3. shoulder pivot, these are sequenced, chain reactive movements
At front foot touch down the hips first rotate w /shoulders still closed creating hip to shoulder separation then the shoulders immediately follow & rotate bringing the arm w/ball in hand on through from it's external extended lay back position to & through the elbows internal rotational forward movement on forward to ball release point & on to a nice follow through flat back fielding position. at touch down the throwing arm must be approaching the ear area. (will resume above)
where the knee turns in slightly so as to close the hips off w/foot in close to drive leg at the top of lift the hips move forward into weight shift w/no stoppage etc. then the stride foot leads the stride leg with a very strong push from the drive foot, gaining momentum as fast and under control as possible with a fully triple extended drive foot ankle, knee and hip flexor sideways down the hill to front foot touch down into a stride length of at least matching one's body height
As the Mr. Ted Williams Taught us many moons ago, "THE HIPS LEAD THE WAY," during pitching and or hitting, there is hip to shoulder separation, in hitting during the forward approach to contact the hips lead the way, they rotate first then the shoulders simultaneously, immediately follow and rotate taking the hands and barrel to the ball.
In pitching there is no stopping, pausing or hesitation at the top of the leg lift
Very good video. I especially like your references to rhythm. I also see a lot of pitchers that lack proper timing and you have done a nice job of addressing that in this video.
@captianmorgan23 at his size it helps him get the extra power in his pitch....at 5'9" he needs every inch to throw as hard as he does....he finishes very low and while most pitchers have strides of 70 to 80% of their body length his is 127% of his body length, his motion has been the same since little league.

I just want to ask you:
Why some major league baseball pitchers have "strange" wind-ups", I mean, they don't use the typical wind ups?
For example: Luis Tiant show his back before he throw.
Could you explain me why they throw "strange"?
Best Regards.

@Carlsagan93 Luis Tiant said it was to give him more speed, like Lincecum has a BIG step towards home, it's all about speed, or style
