Shown at left is Force Plate Data as Chris Valaika, Cincinnati Reds Organization, makes a lateral plyometric movement. The Red lines represents horizontal force and the Blue lines represents vertical force. Dotted lines are Pre-Training; Solid lines are Post-Training

Not only did the quantity of force greatly increase during training, but Chris also changed the way he produces this maximal force. The shape of the solid red Horizontal Force line is a smooth, exponential increase, representing the necessary buildup for maximal power; a quality we refer to as 'tempo'.  This horizontal force curve should equate to a graceful, powerful baseball swing by allowing Chris to drive off his back foot more to hit balls harder and further.

It will also improve his ability in the infileld getting to balls hit to his left and right.
