Video Transcript

"In this segment, I'm going to talk about the stance, and I'm talking about an athletic stance. You've heard many times about "be athletic." When you get into your stance, be athletic. Well, somewhere along the lines that's gotten lost for a few reasons. One is posture. I've heard that word so much in the last five years, and they talk about a posture with a straighter back, and, and bending from the, the waist. And, okay that could work, and it could be great, but I still say that that could take away some of your athleticism. When you're hitting a baseball if you want to have perfect posture, what ever that is, do you see how that stiffens me up a bit? It's the same thing in golf. If you could do something in golf, a shortstop is ready. A, an outfielder is ready. A batter is ready, in a ready or athletic position. In football you're ready to hit someone, you're not trying to get good posture. The trick is to get athletic and that will automatically produce your posture. This is not athletic. This is not athletic. If you want to get athletic, waggle that club. Feel it in your hands, your arms, your body. You're ready. You're about to do something in sports. I feel good, I feel athletic. I feel ready. And that is the feeling you have to get with this baseball swing, or any swing that you use. In your address position. Be ready. Be athletic. Get ready for some action."
