Delayed Green-Light Crush Reaction Drill: Peak Exit Velo Under Time Pressure
A late-cue reaction drill that flashes a swing/take signal deep into the ball's flight, forcing the hitter to decide under time pressure and still produce a max-effort, on-barrel swing. Trains peak exit velocity when the decision window is short.
⏱ ~18 min📋 4 rounds of 6-8 pitches (24-32 recorded swings); rest 60-90s between rounds so every swing is max intent
What you'll need
- Pitching machine or fast front toss (L-screen)
- Exit velocity device (HitTrax, Rapsodo Hitting, or radar behind the plate)
- Colored light/paddle or two-color flip card for the go/take cue
- Batting tee (progression only)
