Rapid’s Baseball Performance Enhancement Program is a comprehensive program designed to increase a player’s speed and fielding range  while also addressing the areas prone for injuries. Utilizing the latest methods derived from Dr. James Andrews’ premier research center, the American Sports Medicine Institute (ASMI) and the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), our unique baseball program has gained the interest of MLB, college and high school players. This list provides a brief overview of what the program primarily consists of:.

Dynamic & Static Stretching – Prior to training, we warm the cold muscles up by actively stretching the muscles in various movement patterns. Static stretching follows the workout, and together will help decrease the likelihood of muscle strains or pulls and improve on-field performance.

Prehab - A series of shoulder, hip and core stabilization exercises that train the small stabilizing muscles (ie. rotator cuff) which will help increase joint stability and reduce the likelihood of injury.

Power exercises - The main staple of our program because it gives the athlete that explosive first-step. The player will be able to accelerate down the line faster or increase fielding range by training lower body reactive power.

Movement skills - This incorporates baseball specific speed and agility drills. Combining efficient movement patterns along with the use of sleds, bungees, and various drills, the player learns to accelerate out of the batter’s box quicker, execute an efficient crossover / drop-step, and gain the ability to react in an efficient manner that will cut down valuable time while base running and getting to the ball.

Functional Strength – Using an integrated strength approach, we apply functional strength training methods to increase balance and stability.

Core – A strong and stable core is critical in transferring power from the ground up and increasing a player’s performance. With the use of various cable and medicine ball exercises, we train the core through multiple planes to help increase core stability & rotational power for bat speed & throwing velocity.
