LEARN ABOUT THE LOAD-N-GO : SEPARATION HITTING TRAINER

Separation Hitting Trainer

Focus: Promotes proper upper-body and lower-body separation, which is essential for generating bat speed and power.

What’s Included:

• 2 Resistance Bands (different tension levels)

• Back Elbow Strap

• Front Foot Strap

How It Works:

• The resistance bands connect the back elbow strap to the front foot strap.

• As the hitter loads into their hitting position, the bands stretch to provide resistance. This helps the hitter feel the separation between their upper body (torso and arms) and lower body (hips and legs).

• The goal is to create tension during the load phase, where the hitter feels the upper body delay while the lower body begins to initiate the swing. This separation generates torque and stores energy, which is crucial for a powerful swing.

Benefits:

• Creates Power: Encourages the proper loading of the hips and torso to generate torque and bat speed.

• Prevents Early Hand Movement: Helps the hitter delay hand movement while the hips engage, ensuring a more efficient and powerful swing.

• Increases Bat Speed: By teaching the proper sequencing of the body during the swing, the hitter can increase bat speed and control.

Training Focus:

• Proper loading and timing of the upper and lower body to maximize swing power.

• Delaying the hands and engaging the hips first to create efficient body rotation.

LEARN ABOUT THE LOAD-N-GO : LOWER-HALF HITTING TRAINER

Lower-Half Hitting Trainer

Focus: Activates and strengthens the lower body to develop proper weight transfer, balance, and explosive power while teaching hitters to control stride mechanics for a more efficient swing.

What’s Included:

• 1 Resistance Band

• Back Knee Strap

• Front Foot Strap

How It Works:

• The resistance band connects the back knee strap to the front foot strap, creating tension that guides the hitter’s lower-body movements.

• As the hitter loads and strides, the band provides resistance to promote proper lower-body mechanics. It helps the back knee maintain the correct position while encouraging the hips and legs to engage efficiently.

• The band supports weight transfer from the back leg to the front leg during the stride, ensuring a smooth and balanced shift of power.

• The Lower Half Trainer also trains the hitter to control the stride foot, preventing stepping “in the bucket” (stepping away from the plate) or over-striding.

• By pulling the back knee forward, the band naturally encourages the back foot to “peel the heel,” aligning with modern lower-body mechanics. This eliminates reliance on outdated methods like “squash the bug,” which limit rotational power and hip engagement.

Benefits:

• Improves Balance: Helps hitters maintain a strong, stable base throughout the swing.

• Strengthens Lower Body: Activates the legs and hips, ensuring they contribute to power generation.

• Promotes Proper Weight Transfer: Reinforces an effective weight shift from the back leg to the front leg, essential for bat speed and power.

• Enhances Stride Control: Prevents common issues like stepping out or over-striding, promoting consistent, powerful swings.

• Teaches Modern Mechanics: Encourages proper hip rotation and foot movement for maximum power and efficiency.

Training Focus:

• Developing lower-body activation, balance, and weight transfer to build an explosive swing.

• Teaching hitters to control the stride foot for better plate coverage and swing consistency.

• Reinforcing the use of hips and legs for rotational power while aligning with modern swing mechanics.

LEARN ABOUT THE LOAD-N-GO : CONNECTION HITTING TRAINER

Connection Hitting Trainer

Focus: Ensures proper synchronization between the upper and lower body, ensuring a connected, efficient swing.

What’s Included:

• 1 Resistance Band

• Back Elbow Strap

• Back Knee Strap

How It Works:

• The resistance band connects the back elbow strap to the back knee strap.

• This trainer works by keeping the upper and lower body connected throughout the swing. It helps prevent “casting” (when the hands move too far away from the body), which can lead to weak, inefficient swings.

• As the hitter swings, the band provides resistance that ensures the hips and torso drive the swing, with the hands following in a connected motion.

Benefits:

• Prevents Arm-Only Swings: Encourages full-body rotation by synchronizing the hands, torso, and legs.

• Improves Timing and Sequence: Helps hitters learn the proper sequencing of their swing, where the hips and torso lead the motion and the hands follow.

• Enhances Swing Efficiency: Ensures the hitter’s swing is smooth and powerful, using the entire body rather than just the arms.

Training Focus:

• Developing a connected swing, where the upper and lower body move together.

• Eliminating disconnected, arm-only swings to create a more powerful and efficient motion.

LEARN MORE ABOUT REAL FEEL TEMP STICKS

Real Feel Temp Sticks

What Are They?

Real Feel Temp Sticks are patent-pending thermochromic stickers that visually display a bat’s temperature using a color-changing scale. They help players, parents, and coaches ensure bats are within the optimal temperature range for peak performance and to prevent damage caused by extreme heat or cold.

Why Do You Need Them?

Baseball and softball bats are investments and perform best within specific temperature ranges. Using a bat when it’s too cold or too hot can cause cracks, dents, or inconsistent performance. Real Feel Temp Sticks provide a quick, visual solution to check if your bat is game-ready.

How They Work:

The Temp Stick functions like a thermometer, transitioning through a 4-phase color scale as the temperature changes:

1. TOO COLD (40–60°F, Blue):

The sticker remains dark blue, signaling the bat is at risk for cracks or dents in cold conditions.

2. OPTIMAL (60–80°F, Green):

The sticker turns green, indicating the bat is in its ideal range for performance and durability.

3. WARM (80–100°F, Yellow):

The sticker transitions to yellow, signaling a caution phase. The bat is still safe to use but nearing its upper limit.

4. TOO HOT (100–120°F, Red):

The sticker turns red, warning the bat may be too hot for consistent performance and durability.

Durability and Shelf Life:

• The Temp Stick is designed to last one season or up to one year if undamaged.

• It includes built-in UV protection to resist sun exposure and extend its lifespan.

• However, regular exposure to direct UV light over time can reduce its effectiveness, so proper care is recommended.

Key Features:

• Visual and Intuitive: Clear color changes (blue, green, yellow, and red) provide a quick temperature reading.

• Accurate and Reliable: Built with advanced thermochromic materials for precision.

• Durable: Designed to stay in place and withstand normal use throughout a season.

• Lightweight: Non-intrusive and won’t affect bat balance or performance.

Benefits:

• Protect Your Bat: Avoid cracks, dents, or damage caused by extreme temperatures.

• Maximize Performance: Confirm your bat is ready for optimal power and consistency.

• Stay Warranty Compliant: Many bat warranties are void if the bat is used in unsafe temperatures. Temp Sticks help keep you within guidelines.

• Convenient and Easy to Use: A simple, visual tool to check bat readiness at a glance.

Who Should Use Them?

• Players: Keep your bat performing at its best.

• Parents: Protect your investment in your athlete’s equipment.

How to Use:

1. Apply the Temp Stick to a clean, dry section of the bat.

2. Before playing, check the color to determine the bat’s temperature.

3. Only use the bat when it’s in the green (Optimal) or yellow (Warm) ranges for safety and performance.

Why Real Feel Temp Sticks?

Temperature matters, and bats are expensive. Real Feel Temp Sticks give you peace of mind by helping you protect your bat, maximize its lifespan, and ensure it’s ready to perform—every time you step up to the plate.

Why Players Trust Real Feel Temp Sticks

Experts across the industry agree—temperature matters when it comes to bat performance and durability. Major bat retailers and manufacturers consistently warn against using composite bats in temperatures below 60°F, as the cold makes them brittle and more prone to cracking. They also emphasize the importance of proper bat storage, advising against extreme heat or cold, which can weaken a bat’s structure over time.

What the Experts Say:

JustBats.com

“Composite bats perform well in warmer conditions but are vulnerable in colder temperatures, as they can crack or become brittle when temperatures drop. If you only have a composite bat, be mindful of the risk, and avoid using it when temperatures are below 60°F.”

DiamondSportsGear.com

“Do not use in temperatures below 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Do not store the bat in extremely hot or cold temperature areas. It takes about 4 hours for a bat to reach the temperature that it is in. You can use the bats in colder weather as long as they are stored in warm places.”

BaseballSavings.com

“Don’t store your bat in extreme heat or cold. Regardless of bat composition, all bats are sensitive to temperatures. The extreme temperatures will add stress to the bat or loosen up the composition making the bat not as effective or stable.”

HeadbangerSports.com

“Do not play in cold weather (above 60°F only!). The temperature in which you use your composite bat matters! In cold weather, the fiber matrix in composite bats does two things. Namely, it contracts and gets more brittle. When the mercury drops, that means your bat gets brittle. Practicing with a composite bat in the cold is not all right. Making contact with a ball drastically increases your chances of snapping or cracking the bat. Moreover, even if you don’t see the damage, practicing in the cold can result in little fractures in the fiber matrix increasing the chances of early fatigue or cracking. The moral: practice and play only in temperatures above 60°F. Do not store your bat in excessively hot or cold conditions. Similarly, you should never store your composite slowpitch or fastpitch bat in excessively hot or cold conditions. While it’s worse to play with a bat in the cold than it is to store one in it, extreme temperatures can still stress the fibers, resulting in premature damage. Keep your bat with your other gear, somewhere protected against the elements, and inside if possible. Don’t just throw it in the garage.”

Anderson Bat Company

“Avoid using your composite bats under 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Using your composite bat in cold weather will cause it to flex less, which can compromise its integrity and result in a crack.”

AxeBat.com

“Store your bat properly: When not in use, store your bat in a cool and dry place. Avoid leaving your bat in your car or any place where it will be exposed to extreme temperatures. Extreme temperatures can cause the materials to expand or contract, resulting in cracks or splits.”

Unique-Sports.com

“Most baseball bats have weather restrictions in order to maintain their integrity. Using a baseball bat in weather cooler than 60 degrees Fahrenheit can end up being very harmful to a bat. The lower temperatures cause the density of a bat to change, thereby causing the bat’s make-up to become more brittle and more prone to cracks and dents. Storing your bat correctly can also help it last longer. Do not throw your baseball bat in the garage during the winter; keeping it away from extremely hot or extremely cold temperatures is imperative. Also, be sure to cover your bats with a bat sleeve if you have more than one, so they do not clash against each other.”

RipIt.com

“RIP-IT bats do not have any weather restrictions, however, most bats are not as advanced. Playing in weather below 60 degrees Fahrenheit can be very harmful to a bat. In lower temperatures, the density of the bat changes, causing the material to become more brittle. This makes the bat more prone to dents and cracks.

BatClubUSA.com

“Avoid Extreme Temperatures - Bats should never be stored in places with extreme temperatures, like car trunks during summer or winter. Extreme temperatures can weaken the bat’s structure.”

Xbats.com

“Do not use in temperatures below 60°F. Do not store the bat in extremely hot or cold temperature areas (like the trunk of your car).”
