Episode 2: Coach RAC and how he avoids the 3 main mental pitfalls at the plate

Welcome back fellow Headbangers to another exciting video! In today's video, Coach RAC will be discussing the 3 main mental pitfalls most people will have when at the plate and how to avoid them!
Number 1: Don't say don't!
When we are at the plate, we want to avoid using negative terminology. Reframe the "Don't" into a "Do". Rather than thinking "Don't strike out" we want to think "DO crush a pitch in my wheelhouse.
Number 2: No Mechanical Adjustments
"Keep your elbow up!" "stride bigger!"
These in-game mechanical adjustments rarely help us perform. When our mind is full of mechanical adjustments, we will not play to our best ability. Baseball requires impossibly quick decisions, so don't let mechanical adjustments take up brain space in the game. Save those adjustments for later when you are at practice.
Number 3: No Emotional Hitting
Baseball has a lot of failure, and it can be easy to let your emotions get the best of you. These emotions unfortunately don't help us much at the plate. Hitting is very tactical, and these emotions rarely help our precision. Slumps are extremely common in baseball because emotional at bats will compound until a player is a total headcase. Learn to respond to failure well, and shake off those failures. Approach every single at bat as if it is your first at bat of the day.
