SwingFaster

The SwingFaster program is now BlastTrax membership!

Do you want to hit the ball farther?

Of course you do. We can teach you how! The distance a baseball travels is based on 2 things: the angle at which the ball is launched and the speed (exit velocity) at which it is launched. At the proper launch angle, 1 additional MPH in exit velocity translates to an additional 5 feet of flight. Our SwingFaster program helps baseball and softball players do just that - hit the ball FARTHER!

Are you tired of the pay-for-play environment of lesson packs?

Our program is built on years of data collection, testing, and specific drills to create permanent change in your swing, and most importantly your performance at the plate. We believe in MOVEMENTS in space, not a set of specific mechanics that every hitter has to subscribe to. We believe in the athlete, not the swing. Our data - both from training and in-game performance - proves that our method adds exit velocity while also perfecting movements in the swing that are required to be successful and attain the ideal launch angle.

Over a 4-year testing time frame average exit velocity gains over an eight week training period averaged 12 MPH - or an additional 60 feet of carry! Players that went through the SwingFaster training program twice over a 4-year period saw gains on average of 18 MPH, or approximately 90 feet of carry!
