Wondering what a typical in person day of a positional athlete looks like? Take a peek

First thing we do is warm up. Focusing on mobility exercises hand chosen for each individual, we then move onto a dynamic to elevate internal temperature and get us moving in the positions we need for our sport and lift

After we’re warm our athletes head into the explosive section. This section focuses on sprints, plyometrics and jumps as well as med ball work. Most of this section is body weight or light weight focusing on moving fast and efficient

From there we head into the fielding portion of the workout. First the athlete go through the beginning of the throwing program, getting the arm ready and throwing. After that we like to have our position players get 75-100 ground balls or hand picks every time they come in. On our longer ground balls the emphasize is on rhythm of our pre pitch routines as well as footwork and glove work

Next is everyone’s favorite section the lifting portion. The focus here is three pronged. First to increase strength, second to get the body to move in positions that will be needed on the competition field and last but perhaps most important stability/ injury prevention, working on single leg stability, and movements

Finally we wrap up with some conditioning priming the aerobic capacity for the season

The Baseball group has been getting after it over the past few weeks.

Take a peek of what some of the lift portion of our workouts look like. This is the beginning of a new month program, and for some guys the beginning of their ramp up for the season, so establishing a base of strength and stability to build from is the point of emphasis.

Its about that time where parents and athletes begin to tryout for AAU baseball. After years of giving money to these organizations with the best of intentions it is time to face facts. Is your athlete actually developing on and off the field ?

From personal experience coaching over the last 8 years and competing at the college level, the answer is sadly no. AAU is a show up and play and practice agreement. Very rarely is there instruction and drills individualized to each athlete. Every athlete is unique and they need their own set drills and things to work on.

That’s where The Lab- Baseball comes in. Our coaches have over 20 years of coaching experience and over 30 years of playing experience. We all played college ball and know what it takes to play at higher levels. At The Lab your athlete gets customized and individualized programming as well as small group coaching. Our programming doesn’t just include constant mechanical analysis and movement refinement. It also includes strength and conditioning programs written by actual Certified Strength and Conditioning coaches.

We are the premier destination for baseball development on the South Shore of Massachusetts. We say this knowing what other places to offer and with the upmost confidence can say that at The Lab you will get coaching like nothing else around. We are changing how baseball players and athletes are training and improving.
