Dear Reader,
…I’m Joey Myers.
I’m the founder of the video blog HittingPerformanceLab.com. I like to think of myself as crossing Bill Ny the Science Guy with Babe Ruth. I played four years division one baseball at Fresno State from 2000-2003. And have been in the corrective fitness world for almost a decade with certifications from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), Functional Muscle Screen (FMS), and Yoga.
I’m also a part of the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA), International Youth Conditioning Association (IYCA), and the Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA).
Not to mention I like to dig through bio-mechanics with the best of them. Dr. Serge Gracovetsky, Ida Rolf, Dr. Erik Dalton, Thomas Myers, and Kelly Starrett, just to name a few.
Now that you know a little about me, I want to introduce you to…
#1 Strategy to Repeatable Power: The Feedback Lab
Pigging-backing on Arnold’s Goals, Steps, and Reps strategy…from my research, here are THREE ways to mastering a specific skill:
Studying and applying the right information, Making coaching cues sticky, and Coaching follow through and feedback.
Number three is the missing puzzle piece for most athletes. Unfortunately, some misinformed parents expect their kids to be superstars while only training with coach three times a week. Science explains otherwise.
Almost every day online, I have someone asking me to give feedback on their son or daughter’s swing. Late in 2013, I ran a survey about what kind of feedback people wanted from sending a short video clip of their player hitting.
Well, here it is…
The Feedback Lab is the #1 strategy to repeatable power. It’s clear focused step-by-step video feedback & accountability in less than 48-hours. The 90-Day Sprint empowers parents and coaches to help young hitters achieve their full potential of consistent power through scientific movement principles.
Here’s what the program looks like…
Scientifically Proven Human Movement Principles
I'll be progressing your hitter through human movement science. Proven principles that work for any type of human being. Take gravity for instance...if you jump out of a plane - and as long as you're on earth - you'll FALL 100% of the time. This has been proven since Sir Isaac Newton published the Universal Law of Gravitation in 1687. We'll use gravity and a few other movement principles to fold and pound your swing into a sharp and durable sword. Here are a few others you'll be learning to incorporate into your swing:
Vision Un-Weighting the Bat (Conservation of Linear Momentum) The Science of Turning Faster (Conservation of Angular Momentum) The Spine Engine Catapult Loading System Spinal Connection Barrel Plane
Optimal Swing Objective(s) & Drill Focuses per Feedback Session
I use coaching strategies proven through empirical research and study (the Gold Standard). The science of learning is as, if not more important, than studying the "right" hitting technique. If the hitter doesn't understand what we want them to do, then we're wasting our time, even with the best technical information.
I use principles to optimal human learning, and apply them to hitting. Practice like you'll play, and you'll play like you practice. I want you to note though, that this method of learning isn't easy. And can be quite frustrating at times. Immediate results aren't the goal here. It's long lasting ones. If you're interesting in only quick fixes and right-now outcomes, then The Feedback Lab isn't for you.
Easy to Understand Cues for Parent or Coach to Replicate
My surveyed parents and coaches responded that feedback needs to be simple to understand and make sense to them and their player. I mentioned earlier how sticky coaching cues are one of the three key parts to mastering any skill.
The Feedback Lab makes sure nothing gets lost in translation from instructor » parent/coach » hitter. My goal for instruction is to give coaching cues so easy a 7-year-old can understand.
“Why?” Explanation
I rarely had a coach tell me why to change my hitting mechanics, until college. Looking back, they didn’t have the time to study human movement rules. Or why we make compensations when moving. It’s important for a hitter to know where they’re leaking force and why.
It’s also mission critical the hitter understands their movement science objective well enough to share with others. The “why” is explained in The Feedback Lab.
Step-By-Step Movement Development
You’ll find no quick fixes here. I have a system to develop my young hitters built on proper movement science progressions. I will not progress a hitter to the next objective or drill until they show mastery. They don’t just “earn a belt” for participating. They have to earn the next level. It’s frustrating, but science reveals the learning curve can be dramatically cut in half by how frequent the player engages in deeper practice outside of instruction.
At The Feedback Lab our focus is on developing young hitters from start to end. We prepare for the long haul. That’s one reason why I ONLY offer the 90-Day Sprint instead of a month-to-month plan. Also, having a clear time limit ignites motivation!
Side-By-Side Feedback
Mom and Dad don’t teach their babies how to walk. Gravity is the best teacher, but just as effective are babies mimicking other walking babies and toddlers around their age.
Mimicking is the same way old time ball players learned to hit before high speed video analysis, hitting aids, and searching the keywords “how-to hit a baseball” in Google.
At The Feedback Lab, I use split screen analysis to show the hitter next to a more seasoned one (so they can see what to do right). Or I may compare the hitter in before and after swings (so they can see their progression).
What Hitter is Doing Well, What They Can Improve On
A healthy mix of constructive criticism and encouragement is important. When I used to teach group resistance training classes, I learned it was important – when someone was doing a movement wrong – to use the compliment sandwich…
Praise them for doing something right…tell them what they can do different…and praise them for working hard.
Low Cost Equipment Needed
As long as you already have baseballs or softballs, batting tee, portable hitting net, and normal hitting equipment – like a bat – then you’re already ahead of the game. There may be smaller things to invest in like fitness resistance bands, but nothing that’ll break your wallet. I’ll have links to other recommended practice equipment, but they’re far from mandatory.
Ability to Ask Questions & Get Answers Quickly
Communication is important. I don’t want my instruction to get lost in translation. So this is why I have easy to find Support tools in The Feedback Lab. I get back via email within 12-24 hours.
Once you share video of your hitter, then you’ll get actionable feedback sooner than 48-hours.
You can also setup an immediate follow up phone call to review the analysis with me if anything is unclear. I want to make sure you have reasonable accessibility to me.
Team Feedback Analysis Blueprint
Part of The Feedback Lab is to help coaches with their teams. It’s an affordable way to combine my guidance with coach’s follow through. Four times a year I have a Little League team called the Bakersfield Sliders, drive two hours - one way - to work with me in person. However, coaches not so close can’t do that.
My guidance coupled with a coach’s crucial follow through can cut the learning curve in half, and ignite a team’s success. Like it has done for the Bakersfield Sliders:
“With your help and learning your techniques our team has made huge progress in the area of hitting. Here's hitting stats now on our team: Batting Average for the Team is .414, Slugging Percentage is .563, Team On Base Percentage is .546. Alex leads the team with 16 RBIs and 3 homeruns. Isaiah, who was struggling at the beginning of the season, has 11 runs and 8 RBIs! Every player on our team has scored no less than 5 runs in 9 games! Joey, your work with Hitting Performance Lab has made an impact on our team for the better. We are using that philosophy with our team and it is paying off. Results show that we have more quality at bats and they are powerful as well. Our team runs scored is 105 and our team RBIs are 86. Every player is now an asset at the plate. With your work and instruction and then our follow through of your techniques at our weekly batting practice we are now confident players at the plate.”
– Bakersfield Sliders Head Coach Justin Karr
How the Team Feedback Analysis Blueprint works:
Coach sends up to 14 separate player hitting videos no more than 40 seconds each. I analyze and formulate a progressive game plan for the whole team to practice. Simple: one movement science objective, one drill focus. It’s not individual feedback analysis, it directly relates to the team as a whole. Set up follow up phone call to make sure we’re on the same page. Less than a 48-hour Team Feedback Analysis turnaround.
An idea: Team Feedback Analysis programming can be paid out of the team’s funds or individually by each parent.
Baseball or Softball?
The Feedback Lab is for young men and women. Human movement rules don’t discriminate whether you’re male or female. Young or more seasoned. A shoulder is a shoulder whether you’re swimming, shooting a basketball, or hitting a ball.
Corrective Movement Strategy
If a player has a movement dysfunction, the brain puts high performance on the back burner. And on top of that, the athlete runs a high risk for injury. Ultimately, explosive rotational power can be achieved when movement dysfunction has been eliminated. So each hitter will get a corrective movement strategy during their 90-Day Sprint.
Overall,
The Feedback Lab is the #1 strategy to repeatable power. It’s clear focused step-by-step video feedback & accountability in less than 48-hours. The 90-Day Sprint empowers parents and coaches to help young hitters achieve their full potential of consistent power through scientific movement principles.

Testimonials
Went 4 for 5 in 1 game only needing a homerun for the cycle…
"Joey just wanted the let you know that Isaiah (B-town sliders) had a monster hitting weekend last Sunday. Went 4 for 5 in 1 game only needing a homerun for the cycle. Your teaching has helped him drive the play [ball] like the bigger kids in his age group. Thanks again."
The Ortiz Family, Bakersfield, CA, son Isaiah is 11 years old
Lined a 2 hop shot to the fence in left center for a double…
"Mikey had a good first game. 1st AB vs kid that pitches for tenaya [middle school] 2 strike liner over 3rd for single, walk in the 2nd AB, 3rd AB vs 12yo tenaya kid he lined a 2 hop shot to the fence in left center for a double."
Dr. Mitchell Fung, Fresno, CA, son Michael is 10 years old
I was on fire today…
"Joey man my first game 4 for 5 8 rbi's and 2 double I was on fire today thanks for helping me"
Gabriel Chavez, Fresno, CA, Junior in High School
He made all tourney team…
"Hey Joey just wanted to update u on Ryne in 8 games in the Central tourney he hit .480 with 4 doubles in the lead off spot. He made all tourney team. Hope he can keep it going into league. Again a big thank you."
Lonnie Engleman, Fresno, CA, son Ryne is a Senior in High School
He hit an over 300 ft home run!
"Just want you to know we made Alex focus on showing his numbers to help remind him not to step out. He hit an over 300 ft home run! He cleared the 275 fence on our field and hit it into the outfield of the adjoining field. We wanted you to know. :)"
Sheri Hunter, Bakersfield, CA, son Alex is 11 years old
One of the best on the internet…
“Your new videos are awesome. Your product is becoming one of the best on the internet for sure!”
Andy Rando, The Truth About Explosive Rotational Power Course owner
Hit 44 out in BP today…
“A high school senior I started working with at Christmas hit 44 out in BP today. He ain't never hit more than 6 out in one day. he's been working with their leadoff and he hit 25 out today he's hit like 5 EVER! And he said they weren't just out but landing on the school roof which is about 385 but 20ft high.”
Blake Blackwell, The Truth About Explosive Rotational Power Course owner
It makes so much sense…
“Yeah, that's what I really like about what I'm learning about the swing and how it works from guys like you - it goes against most of what I was taught during my baseball career but it makes so much sense. I played college and minor league ball and found that much of the coaching I received at those levels actually made me worse. I am just thankful for the information that you are putting out there so that I can teach the players I coach with quality information.”
Tyler Hauschild, The Truth About Explosive Rotational Power Course owner
Hit 5 homers this summer!
“I have a 14 year old daughter playing Fastpitch softball that is starting to reap the benefits of your swing. She is 5'7" and 126 lbs. but hit 5 homers this summer!”
Adam Varner, The Truth About Explosive Rotational Power Course owner
Naturally stops arm barring…
“Anytime, big fan of the catapult system. Colin is killing it! As you have pointed out it naturally stops arm barring additional benefit for Colin it has helped with his timing allowing the ball to travel deeper. 2 Grand Slams this past weekend in Cooperstown NY tournament.”
Chad Casamento, The Truth About Explosive Rotational Power Course owner

Also, you may recall the other THREE ingredients to mastering a specific skill that turned up in my research:
Studying and applying the right information, Making coaching cues sticky, and Coaching follow through and feedback.
I’ll provide you with ALL three in The Feedback Lab. However, we’ll have to combine forces on number three above; if you want to achieve the Goals you set in motion.
Accountability, Feedback, & Timeliness
I can picture you being that parent watching their young hitter from the stands, FINALLY enjoying the game because you don’t have to worry about…
Endless hours of researching on the internet, not feeling satisfied with what you find. No more unsupported hitting theories, because a “guru” said so. No more seemingly incomplete mechanical jigsaw puzzles to fit together. And no more headaches focusing solely on winning…but on gradual improvement of your young developing athlete.
Make the investment today, and join The Feedback Lab Community as we sharpen the sword together. Together, we’ll fold and hammer that steel blade thick and strong…together, we’ll bounce ideas off each other…together, we’ll simplify seemingly complicated questions…together, we’ll test and share our results and findings. Let’s stand on the shoulders of giants…TOGETHER!
I’m looking forward to working with you…
Sincerely,
Founder of the Hitting Performance Lab

Let me answer some your most…
Frequently Asked Questions…
What is the online lesson program?
The Feedback Lab is the #1 strategy to repeatable power. It’s clear focused step-by-step video feedback & accountability in less than 48-hours. The 90-Day Sprint empowers parents and coaches to help young hitters achieve their full potential of consistent power through scientific movement principles.
The Feedback Lab is all about Accountability, Feedback, and Timeliness. There are four parts you’ll have online membership access to:
How the program works, Step-By-Step 16-Tips to optimizing learning at home The Drills Recommended training equipment (but not mandatory)
Is the price a monthly fee?
The price is a monthly fee, but with a deadline. With the two 90-Day Sprint programs, the monthly fee will stop after ninety-days. And then you can re-up or take a break. However, if you find that you can't finish all feedback sessions during the 90-day period, then we can complete them after, at your leisure.
Are there a minimum amount of months I must sign up for?
90-Days is the only option. Psychological and sociological studies show that deadlines get people to take action. Igniting motivation is key in The Feedback Lab.
Does it really work?
Yes. I’m teaching and applying proven science of human movement and learning to hitting. These are rules the body is designed to move by. For instance, the shoulder is a shoulder whether you’re swimming laps, shooting a basketball, or hitting a ball. Male or female…younger, seasoned, or adult leagues…it’s doesn’t matter. If you’re human, you can benefit.
What equipment do I need for The Feedback Lab?
Besides typical baseball or softball equipment, minimal to none. There’s a Recommended Training Aids section in The Feedback Lab, but by no means is it mandatory to purchase anything more. I can work around a tight training aid budget. But at the same time, if you’re looking for some cool hitting gadgets, then I’ve selected only the best.
Do I need access to a baseball field, batting cage, etc.?
No. You can hit whiffle, tennis, or racquet balls in the front or backyard. Just don’t send me a bill with any damage a hitter might do. When I was younger, I broke my neighbor’s window - across the street - after hitting a tennis ball through it. This is why a really good hitting net comes in handy.
How does billing work?
Billing is monthly and automatically taken out via your credit card. PLEASE NOTE: you’ll see a charge from CLICKBANK, and not the Hitting Performance Lab. The charges will stop after 90-Days.
How do I know if I am doing the drills right?
That’s why after I send the Feedback Session instructional video, you have the opportunity to setup a phone call to make sure the player, parent, and/or coach are on the same page with the objective, drill, and coaching cues. After this you can always contact me through The Feedback Lab “Questions” tab, and I’ll respond within 24-hours.
What kind of camera do I need?
Your phone or tablet is usually enough. If you have a camera phone from the stone-age, then a Flip camera will do, or any other handheld video recorder. I just ask that you invest in a tripod to keep the video steady. If not, then set the phone or mobile device on something sturdy.
This seems complicated, how hard is the process?
Like anything new, it’s a challenge. But with more practice (remember myelin), it gets easier with time. Here are the SIX steps:
Shoot swing video, Transfer video file to Google Drive (free), Share link with me, Get Feedback Analysis in less than 48-hours, Follow up phone call if something is unclear, Get to work.
How do I transfer video files?
After shooting the video, you’ll transfer the file to Google Drive (free). When it’s finished uploading, then you’ll share the video file link with via Support email. And you’re done! Or, you can download the Coaches Eye app on your phone and transfer video straight to my email which is very pain-free.
Do I need my own Powerchalk account?
Nope.
What if I have problems, who will help me?
If you have challenges in the process I’m always a support email away. I’m pretty reasonable when it comes to answering emails. Less than 24-hours.
Is this really as good as in person lessons?
Better. There’s not as much wasted time driving and chatting. You’ll also save money on gas. Some of my regular parents drive 20-30 minutes to see me. I have one team from Bakersfield that I work with four times a year, and they drive 2.5 hours one way!!
How do I sign up for online lessons?
By clicking the "Add To Cart!" button below.
How do I cancel, upgrade, or renew my subscription?
You have 60-Days to cancel using Clickbank's refund procedure. You can always create a support ticket to upgrade, and you can always revisit this page to renew your subscription. There will also be a couple email reminders going out about renewing.
Why only 90 days?
Because as we discussed, myelin needs time to wrap around your nerve fibers – remember the copper wiring and duct tape. One month isn’t enough. Sixty-days and we’re starting to make progress. The 90-Day Sprint is the sweet spot. I can alter anyone’s mechanics to where they’re seeing a difference in their consistency and power.
However, if you don't get all your feedback sessions in before the 90-days, I'll still complete the remaining sessions.
How do the team lessons work?
Coach purchases the Team Feedback Analysis Plan Sends me – up to 14 players – videos (using Coaches Eye or Ubersense App) of each individual hitter I analyze and formulate a team mechanical strategy Create a 1-3 step blueprint for coach to work on with his players
How old should I start my kid in your program?
Seven years old is the youngest. Any younger and I’d have to do a phone interview and see LIVE hitting video before taking them on as a student. Basically, they’re guilty till proven innocent.
How long are the instructional videos?
8-12 minutes. They're uploaded to YouTube and marked as "Unlisted". ONLY people with the link can view them.
