More power in my swing?
Question:What are good workouts to get more power in my swing?
In my first 3 seasons I would strike out a lot, I've fixed that to having only 1 strikeout last season, but I have no power!

Can someone please explain to me why in baseball some foul balls are considered strikes?

I went to a hitting instructor in the off season and he said if you practice your swings 50 times a day you will become a more powerful hitter and have better contact. Last year I hit no homeruns but this year i'm crushing the ball and have 2 home-runs in 4 games.Trewner.w what r the vahnces of gettin injured if u drop a ball that came out of your glove? duh?
Look theres a few ways to hit for more power but basically it is based on timing. I'm not a powerfull hitter and can't hit for a lot of power but if i can get a pitch i want and time it right i can put one out of the yard.What are some not so common baseball pitches?
im on a travel team and our coaches are top notch. most of them were in the pros so they know what theyre talking about. i used to hit for a lot of power, but recently it started decreasing. i told my coach this problem and he looked at my swing. he found a problem and gave me a solution that helped me and could probably help you. first, when you stride step make sure your weight is 50-50 on each foot. also, when you stride move your hands back a little bit. when the ball is about to cross homeplate and you start your swing, explode back and make your weight 25-75. make sure to rotate your hips too since you get most of your power from your hips. this will throw your hands forward increasing your bat speed. if you do this you will hit the ball harder than you ever have before.Where can i find a left hand mizuno catchers mitt?
all power stems from the hips. rotate them. power will come.Who won the 1986 MLB All-Star game?
the suggestions above arent bad. another reason why you might have no power is because the ball is sliding off your barrel, and theres no force behind the swing. you gotta have good batspeed and hit through the ball. this dude that worked with me, freakin crazy expensive and i had to pay it off on my own, told me that and i thought it would be stupid for the ball to just slide off my bat cuz nobody ever told me that before. but i worked out with him a few times and then i was hitting homers like every other game. pretty weird, cuz im a middle infield/pitcher, contact hitter and then all this power came outta nowhere.but yeah, the sound of your contact will tell you if you're hitting the ball squarely or not. :/ if you want more info, just let me know.
