What's up guys, Coach Madden, official trainer at YouGoProBaseball and today I've got 5 unique
exercises for you that you can do with the bands when you're training for baseball.
Now, everyone has seen guys training with the resistance bands for baseball.
You know, you see guys on the fence all the time getting their exercises in with the bands
but in this video I'm going to show you 5 unique exercises that you may have not ever
seen but are very useful and work very well.
So, check them out.
Alright, so the first one is going to be Squat Pulls.
We're going to put the bands down nice and low and we're going to obviously put these
on our wrists.
I like to use the Jaeger Bands, J-Bands, because they have the wrist straps and you're not
holding on to the handles.
It just takes some of the tension off of the forearm and the elbows so you really get the
work in the shoulder.
That's why I like these.
I sell these on my website.
They're on sale right now if you're interested in these.
Of course, you can use other bands as well to do these exercises but you may have to
do them a little bit differently.
The first one, the first exercise, unique, is going to be Squat Pulls.
So you're going to get into a squat like you're a catcher.
You want good squat posture, butt down nice and low, chest up.
And then we're just going to pull one arm at a time coming back to our ear.
Just like this.
I really like this exercise because it engages your legs, it engages your core, and it's
working on the shoulder at the same time.
You've really got to be balanced.
You've got to be able to control your body when you're doing this and you're getting
a great shoulder workout.
The next exercise is Half Kneeling Ys.
We know the traditional Ys where we are just making our body look like a Y when we are
pulling back but this one we're going to be in the half kneeling position with our throwing
leg forward.
We're going to clip this down low and then we're going to go Ys this way.
We can also do this one arm at a time.
We can work blocking off with this arm and then pulling up so we've really got to stabilize
the rotation of the core as well.
Obviously if we did it that way we would also want to switch and get the other side.
The third unique exercise that we're going to do with the resistance bands is going to
be Wall Slides.
All you're going to do is put this behind your back and make sure it's centered and
then you're going to grab on to the bands where you feel some good tension.
You're going to get up against the wall, have really good posture, you're going to have
your forearms against the wall, and then you just want to slide them up and slide them
down.
Slide them up, slide them down.
The fourth unique band exercise, and this one is a tough one let me tell you this is
really tough, is going to be Side Plank Ts.
We know the traditional Ts where we are just making our body look like a T but this one
we're going to be in a side plank position and this is tough because it works on the
abs and the shoulder at the same time.
You can use both on one arm or just one.
I suggest starting with just one just to see how it feels.
You're going to put it on the wrist, then you're going to get into that side plank position
facing the bands holding it up and then you're going to get into that T. Keep those hips
up, good posture, really squeezing in the back.
The last exercise is going to be Rocker Rows, or what I call Rocker Rows and for this one
I'm going to use two on one arm because this one you're a little bit stronger in the exercise.
All you're going to do is get into your Rocker position.
Everyone knows the Rocker Drill, right?
Nice and wide, heal to heal with the feet, front foot open, back foot like you're on
the rubber, you're going to sit into it.
Now for this one we want to get some extension out in front so kind of let the bands pull
us out in front and then we're going to pull back like we're doing a row.
I want you to be blocked of with your other side.
Pull back like we're doing a row and get some rotation as well and pinch back in the back
here.
So just like this.
Rock forward, rock back and row.
Rock forward, rock back and row.
