What's going on guys coach John
yougoprobaseball.com here with Brent

Pourciau we're at top velocity in the
headquarters Louisiana and have a small

and we're gonna talk about today 3x
pitching what is triple extension how

these guys can use it to get better
increase our velocity and just break it

down for us
cool so triple extension simple

extension of your ankle knee and hip
flexor and what that does on the drive

leg the only leg on the ground most of
your delivery that is going to allow us

to create more ground force or energy
from the ground and ultimately that's

how we put energy in our bodies the best
is through the ground how we push off

the ground so we're gonna teach you how
that works and at the end of the day

it's it's just trying to get as much
extension out it and push or drive out

as you can it's just knowing the right
time and that's where a lot of coaches

get frustrated when they see guys trying
to drive or push they're typically doing

it the wrong times and then they're
getting even worse results right you see

a guy like trying to drive really early
and they start jumping even though we've

seen pitchers and do that with success
it's still really really hard to go and

allow that to happen early and get a lot
of success out of it the other thing is

that the timings too late if I land and
then I'm trying to drive it's too late

because we know when a front foot lands
on a high velocity pitcher you have

about 0.1 0.2 seconds to release the
ball which is close to the blink of the

eye so you don't really have a lot of
time so if I'm too late extending then

I've more likely already release the
ball but like you said we're coaches get

frustrated they're is they're trying to
push in the front foot strike and it's

causing them to fly open even more so
the timing is just so important when you

do it and where is the timing and I say
it's a short window I always used to say

the window is about from here to there
when your front foot is about right here

about to land that's the time that you
have to drive that off just before you

land for it to work so it's right before
I land boom I Drive it off now there's a

lot of intricacies to how you drive and
ultimately it goes through when you're

trying to get triple extension
you have to first get triple flexion

right just like the arm if I want to if
I'm going to extend the arm I'm gonna

I'm gonna have it flexed and that's what
creates extension specifically when I'm

pushing so I really can't push until I
get some flexion so that's what we're

doing here we're gonna lift and we do
what we call forward and down the same

rate with the hip and then just before I
land we're gonna be in triple flexion

and then we're gonna go in triple
extension and the front foot strike some

of the more specific things that you
have to learn is the the force vector

what is the force vector that's the
ankle to knee

if this shin wherever it's pointing when
I push force that's where the energy

goes so if it's pointing up and I push
force I go up if it's pointing linear or

like a sprinter like this when I push
force it goes forward so as a pitcher

that's what I want I want the energy
going through my hip carrying me to the

target I don't want it going up jumping
off the ground so just like we said

forward and down the same rate I'm going
into triple flexion and I'm allowing

that force vector to get linear I always
say somewhere pointing to the front hip

is the time that I can now drive and
hopefully we're still close and that's

then when we open and we triple extend
and a lot of guys to confuse triple

extension they think this is triple
extension that's just really stink

extension of the ankle and knee triple
extension has a rotational component to

it right before you land you have to
open and what that does is it exposes

the hip so when I go to fully extend now
I can get into that hip extension which

means I'm driving good hip rotation
which is the lower half that's how it

when it coach says you need to use your
lower half that's how you need to learn

how to use your lower half if you do
that correctly you're gonna put yourself

in a better spot to have better hip to
shoulder separation which we'll talk

about in other videos one analogy I like
to use for this and you talked about

guys who jump off and or guys who kind
of fall off one analogy I like to use is

like a car if you're in a race car and
you slam on the gas you're gonna spin

out right so that's like the guys who
jump off of there and if you just go

really slow obviously you're gonna throw
really slow and you're gonna start

really slow in your car you got to find
that perfect spot

how much gas are you gonna put
in that car to not peel out but go as

fast as you possibly can right and you
know people always say cuz this is what

you know before I got into coaching all
we knew was dropping Drive stand tall

and fall right what drop and drive or
stand tall and fall and people always

would come in to me and be like what is
this and I said it's it's it's neither

and that's why I called it 3x pitching
because I actually wanted to put a name

of a method out there for people to
learn and not just here drop and drive

stand upon fall this is the best of both
this is falling forward and out the same

rate so I can flex and load and get
linear and then I can drive so it's

really technically a combination of drop
and drive and stands on fall as one and

I believe in a better method and one of
the key components to your pitching

program and it's one of the things we
talked about in the for probably the

four most important things and we put
all those four things into a video for

you guys so if you're interested in
seeing that one it'll be the first link

down below you can click it put your
first name in put your email in and then

we'll shoot you that video over right
away definitely check that one out

because it's got again the big big stuff
the big idea is that if you put it to

use you're gonna see some results so
great stuff thank you very much thank

you but this video right here we're
gonna talk about pitching velocity leaks

where guys are leaking their velocity
and we're gonna make this a little bit

fun we're gonna have a competition I'm
gonna give you one leak he's gonna give

you a one leak we haven't talked about
this we don't even know what we're gonna

talk about we're just kind of just
please stop Yulin right now but in all

seriousness this is gonna be some good
stuff
