I coached the wrong thing for years

I used the average column my whole career. Coached it too. Then I created the elite column. Here's why. I studied what the best hitters actually say to themselves, and sat down with mental coaches who had already figured it out. "I'm the best hitter out here" was the one I used a lot. Then you walk into a clubhouse with a Mike Trout in it. Or a Grady Emerson. Or a Dylan Seward. Guys who are flat out better than you. Now you're lying to yourself and you know it. A coach put it to me like this....

When I'm training hitters, I'm always calculating one thing in my head. What's the simplest adjustment that will make the biggest impact? I tell hitters that when I'm staring into space, I'm computing.. haha. "If I say this, he'll do this." "I can't say this because he doesn't like it, or it didn't work for him." "If I say this, he'll overthink it, so I have to work around that idea." I do the calculating so you don't have to. To a certain extent though, right? There's a time and place for...

Pete Crow-Armstrong said something that should make a lot of hitters think.. In an interview weeks ago, he admitted it. Any time he struggled, he’d try to hit more. More cage time. More swings. More effort. HARDER. MORE. Now he’s trying to do less. Calm. Routine. Process. That’s the part most hitters will scroll past. Because it sounds backwards. But it’s the exact thing I’ve watched with my own guys for years. The hardest workers don’t always get the best results. Sometimes the guy who seems...

video preview

Pulling off is one of the top 3 things I help fix with hitters. Check out my new Youtube video on how I've helped improve that issue. Simple 3 step system, easy -> medium -> advanced Save the video for when you need it.Send this to a hitter who needs it. Have a Youtube video request? Reply to this and let me know.

I rebuilt my Grip Strength Builder PDF Same four day program, but I redesigned the whole thing. 1. Every exercise has a picture now, so you can see what it's supposed to look like. 2. I also added a chart. What I see from good high school hitters, good college guys, and elite ones. Baseball and softball, separate numbers. Test your sqeeeeeze, see what you score and where it compares on the chart -> Get to work. PDF:...

Made a 2-minute video on the half bat. Simplest training bat you can find. Also the most proven. In my opinion it's the best training bat in the game right now. Many high level coaches live and die by “bat path is king.” The Half Bat is how you actually train it. Most bat videos just tell you to buy the bat. This video gets into how it works and why, which is the part that actually helps you. Watch it here: Trey Hannam @TJHannam10 Simplest training bat you can find. Also the most proven. A...

Here's the opportunity: You send me your swings, in the cage and game. Answer a couple questions. I make you a 5-8 minute video talking you through what I see, good and bad and how to improve based on YOUR goals. It's only $150, here's it what that gets you: You stop guessing. Most hitters are grinding on the wrong thing, which is why months go by and nothing moves. You'll know the real problem and the order to fix it in. You get a plan built for where you're at right now. Off-season, fall...

I get the same message a lot. “I felt off today.” Okay. "What was going on? Where’d the ball go? What was your focus? Did you take and watch video?" (or did you just get in your feels and THINK something was off) They usually always feel things too much instead of focusing on the results and the process of the results. So I built a PDF program. A machine challenge I send to hitters who are overthinking and over-tinkering....

I was getting a haircut and my barber said something that stuck with me.“Every guy who sits in this chair tells me what they want. Almost none of them can actually describe it. They just show me a picture of someone else’s hair.”I started laughing because that’s exactly what happens with hitters.“I want to hit like [insert MLB player].”Cool. But that guy is 6’2, 220 pounds, and has been training since he was 8 and he's now 28. While we do want to look at MLB hitters because they ARE giving us...

Going 0 for 4 doesn't make you less of a player, or less of a person. It makes you 0 for 4. That's it. The stat sheet is the last thing you control and the first thing you let ruin your day. Four perfect at-bats can go 0 for 4. Four ugly swings can go 4 for 4. That's baseball. It's not going to be fair.────────────────────────────────Remember,'The High School Hitter Playbook' has a full guarantee behind it.My promise: I aim to OVER-DELIVER on this.You're getting thousands of hours of work and...

For the last 15 days, every time I said something to a hitter that I felt was a helpful I documented it. Remote or in person. Here's 10 I handpicked.I wrote it down or made a voice note, to share with people who aren't in the room with me. Here the the real words, with real hitters:#1 "The swing was sucked because the decision sucked. Ted Williams said you're only as good as the pitches you swing at. So many hitters think their swing sucks when it was simply just a sucky swing decision." #2...
