What coaches and parents tell us every week
The gap between practice performance and game performance is one of the most frustrating things in youth baseball. It has a name โ and a fix.
"He looks great on the tee โ but can't put the barrel on live pitching." The problem usually isn't timing. It's a load-phase movement pattern that only shows up under pressure.
"His coach says his mechanics are fine โ but his exit velocity isn't moving." Exit velocity is a product of bat speed, and bat speed is a product of how the body loads. Mechanics at contact don't cause exit velocity. The load does.
"We've tried four different instructors and nothing sticks." Most hitting cues address what the swing looks like at contact. The Catapult Loading System addresses how the body creates force before the swing begins โ that's the part most instruction misses.
"He's working hard but getting smaller results." More reps of the wrong pattern produces a better version of the wrong pattern. The fix isn't more practice โ it's the right load cue before the reps begin.
The Power Profile Quiz identifies which of these patterns is at the root of your hitter's issue โ and gives you a starting point that's specific to them.

What coaches and parents see when the load changes
These aren't outliers. This is what happens when the load pattern is right.
280+ FEET IN GAMES โ AT 110 LBS
"My son hit the ball over 280 feet several times already in the game, not just practices. What I have noticed is how consistent his power has become. I played 10 years of professional baseball and I wish I could have used some of this advice."
Sandy Arecena โ 10-Year Pro Baseball Player & Coach
COLLEGE OFFERS FROM HER METRICS
"I have read this book a couple of times to make sure I understand the science. It has changed my daughter's life. Literally. She was always a good hitter โ now her metrics have gotten her several offers from college coaches."
Robert Donovan โ Baseball Parent
.800 BATTING AVERAGE โ LITTLE LEAGUE
"Hey Joey. I just wanted to let you know how Brayden did this spring for baseball. For little league Brayden batted over .800. He also had the most extra-base hits on his team."
Chris Morgan โ Philadelphia, PA
+10 MPH EXIT VELOCITY
"I like what you bring to the hitting world. You speak of things that are not normal hitting talks โ the way the body works. I coach 12U softball and a minimum of 10 mph was added to exit velocity working these principles."
Jared Rehm โ 12U Softball Coach
FIRST HOME RUN IN 2 WEEKS
"Thank you Coach! Your stuff is great! My son got his first home run 2 weeks after reading your book. Keeps getting more and more distance now. Can't say enough positive things!"
Michael Roberson Jr. โ Baseball Parent
9 BALLS 300+ FEET IN ONE SESSION
"Hey budโฆ Jayden had his best batting practice ever last night. Hit at least 9 balls around 300-feet or farther. I'm so happy with his progress. The science really works!"

I played D1 baseball at Fresno State from 2000โ2003. My college stats โ .250 average, 9 home runs, 40 RBIs โ weren't anything special. And that's exactly the point. Like most players who peaked below their potential, I can look back and say "if I knew then what I know now." But unlike most coaches who say that, I spent the next 15 years figuring out what "knowing it now" actually means โ and building a system around it.
My approach doesn't come from endless video analysis or back-to-back hitting lessons. It comes from studying human movement science: anatomy trains, fascia mechanics, spinal engine principles, and real Zepp data from swing experiments with hitters at every level โ beginners to Big Leaguers.
The result is the Catapult Loading System โ an Amazon #1 bestseller with a 4.4-star rating and over 400 reviews.

What coaches and parents ask most
What is the Catapult Loading System and how is it different from other hitting programs?
The Catapult Loading System is a hitting training method built on peer-reviewed human movement science โ specifically fascia mechanics, anatomy trains, and spinal engine principles. Unlike traditional instruction that focuses on what the swing looks like at contact, the CLS focuses on how the body loads before the swing begins. This is the phase that determines bat speed and exit velocity, and it's the phase most instruction ignores. The result is that hitters of all sizes โ including smaller, lighter athletes โ can produce elite-level exit velocities when the load is right.
What is the Power Profile Quiz and what do I get from it?
The Power Profile Quiz is a free 60-second assessment that identifies the specific movement pattern holding your hitter back from transferring practice performance into games. You answer questions about your hitter's tendencies, and the quiz generates a personalized report identifying whether the issue is in the load phase, timing, focus, or game-transfer patterns โ and what to address first. Results are sent to your inbox immediately after completing the quiz.
Does the Catapult Loading System work for softball hitters?
Yes โ the CLS principles apply equally to baseball and softball because they're based on human movement science, not sport-specific mechanics. The same load cues, fascia tension principles, and Zepp-validated drills that work for a 15-year-old baseball player work for a 12U softball hitter. Jared Rehm, a 12U softball coach, reported a minimum of 10 mph added to exit velocity working these principles with his players.
How quickly can I expect to see results from the CLS system?
Most coaches see measurable changes in a hitter's load pattern within the first 1โ2 cage sessions using the Showing Numbers drill. Exit velocity and bat speed gains โ as measured by Zepp โ average 5โ6 mph in the first session when the cue is applied correctly. Full pattern automation typically takes 30โ90 days of deliberate practice, after which the movement happens without the hitter consciously thinking about it during at-bats.
Can the CLS help a smaller or younger hitter produce more power?
Yes โ and this is one of the most documented outcomes from the system. Sandy Arecena's 110-pound son began hitting 280+ feet in games consistently after working the CLS load cues. Greg Del Mar's son was 5'3" and 120 lbs when he started hitting 315 feet to center field at age 12. The CLS replaces the "wait until he fills out" approach with a movement-based explanation for why size is not the limiting factor โ and the system to prove it.
What is the free book offer and what does it actually cost?
The Catapult Loading System book is free. You pay $14.95 to cover shipping to anywhere in the USA. The book ships within a few business days and typically arrives within 1โ2 weeks. Every order includes instant digital access to the Power Hitter 2.0 video course โ 9 videos available immediately in your account โ so you can start applying the principles before the physical book arrives. If the book doesn't help you identify and fix hitting problems predictably, you receive a full $14.95 refund and keep both the book and the bonus course.
