Nate is big in understanding the Kinematic Sequencing of the body because it’s the foundation for most rotational activities including hitting, throwing, tennis, golf, striking, etc. Moving the body logically to produce a desired result is what we aim for. To teach this he uses traditional coaching methods, but also uses data analytics to make sure we are staying on track.
