Welcome to Nemo's Speed Hitting Program.
The recipient of the number one new product of the year award!
A total hitting program that includes a nemo's Speed Training Bat, two instructional DVD's and now his new Triple Hitting Tee. (see accessories page) This is the program that gives coaches and players the edge to enhance sports performance!
The Nemo Bat was tested by 75 students and several players from the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes of Salem, Oregon, the minor league team of the San Francisco Giants. The results of the test showed a very significant increase in bat speed of five miles per hour in just three weeks. Additional testing for 6 weeks demonstrated increases of 12 miles per hour. Test groups were between the ages of 12 -16 years of age.******
THE AWARD WINNER
B&N Baseball/Softball Product of the Year Award
Dr. Ron Noebe, Ph.D. and Dr. Mark McDowell, Ph.D. of B & N Baseball and Softball Awards "Your product is one of the few products that can truly be used for baseball and softball. It really does work!!!"
*****
WHO IS DR. NOEBE AND DR. MCDOWELL?
Dr. Ron Noebe; Ph. D. Started B@N Softball/Baseball to find the truths behind much of the hype that is now associated with the sport. Ron's degree is in Materials Science and he is a world expert in the analysis of materials used in the sports of baseball & softball.
Dr. McDowell; holds a Ph. D. in computer engineering, specializing in applied physics. He invented a technology called stereo imaging velocimetry that has been adapted to investigate the bat-ball phenomena.
WHO WAS IN THE STUDY AND THE RESULTS?
In the study were 75 students and several minor league players of the San Francisco Giants baseball team. The results of the test proved that a very significant increase in bat speed of 5 miles per hour could be achieved in just three weeks using this innovative training program. You teach your hitting mechanics and simply substitute a speed training bat for a regular bat.
*****
Why is this study and increased bat speed so important to you?
You will be able to wait and see the ball longer and make a better choice in a swing, no-swing situation. You will have the necessary reaction time to achieve contact with the baseball and or softball and improve your eye-hand coordination increasing your bat speed to hit the ball for greater distances.
NOTE: For every 2 mph increase in bat speed, you have the ability to hit the ball 20 more feet in distance. In this study we showed close to 5 miles increase in bat speed ...... What does this mean to you and your team? It gives your players the ability to hit the baseball and or softball 35 to 40 more feet in distance.
*****
WHAT DOES SCIENCE HAVE TO SAY?
"If you want to increase bat speed, science suggests that you put the lead bat and the doughnut ring away."... Dr. Frank Spaniol, Certified strength and Conditioning Specialist, referring to research conducted by Dr. De Renne.
His research has consistently demonstrated that traditional on deck warm up devices, such as the doughnut ring, power swing, power sleeve and lead bat actually decreased game bat speed when used for on-deck warm-ups.
In the on deck circle; swinging a lighter bat is more functional than a heavy bat for quick twitch muscle fiber response.
*****
How can you use this triple-purpose bat?
(1) A variety of underloading dry drills; breaking down the mechanics of the swing process and getting the number of repetitions necessary to develop quick twitch muscle fiber reaction time to increase bat speed and reaction time.
(2) In multiple sets of short distance pitching as well as soft toss drills; developing speed, timing, accuracy and power in the mechanics of the swing process.
(3) Teaching hitting mechanics in a speed circuit training format and simply substituting a Nemo Speed Hitting Bat for a regular bat.
Results: You get a double win.......correct mechanics plus increased bat speed.
