kyle\'s winter diet and exercise log.
Goals:
-Lift heavier and heavier things and look better. Be fairly unconcerned about scale weight. -Find repeatable pitching mechanics. Don't worry about velocity since it's the fking winter. -Find the last bit of power I need to hit home run balls rather than warning track shots. Plan: -Eat reasonably. Not too worried about caloric intake (still keeping it semi-low), but I'm going to attempt to follow a high-protein moderate-carb diet. I will allow myself to eat more since it is the winter. -Lifting: Pushing for heavier and heavier loads in all lifts; will start to take bench press seriously during the winter. Primary lifts will be squat and bench press. Other lifts will be push-ups, hanging leg raises, seated rows, sit-ups, and dumbbell chest press. -One baseball game per week, one bullpen per week, one batting practice session + long toss per week. Thrower's Ten program done daily, lots of focus on shoulder endurance/integrity. -Cardio: Run at least 1 mile every other day, ideally running 2 miles five days a week. -Supplements: Multivitamin with BCAAs, fish oil caps, sometimes ZMA when I don't forget, and Ergopharm's AMP.

Re: kyle\'s winter diet and exercise log.
I find it very interesting the way the barrel of the bat goes towards his head at the start of his swing. I've done a lot of research on pitching but not so much on hitting. When I played I was always told I had a beautiful swing so I never thought about it at all. I always thought of Ryne Sandberg as the perfect swing. It just seemed so effortless and looked completely natural with nothing goofy or gimmicky. Where did this clip of Miggy come from?

Re: kyle\'s winter diet and exercise log.
Not sure - the barrel of the bat going to the head is fairly common amongst hitters in the MLB now. It's called pre-loading and allows the hands to simply hinge down to maintain the correct launch angle and velocity.
