The perfect tool for developing hand,
wrist and forearm strength at contact.
The Power Bag develops power and strength
while learning to hit through the light
foam filled, flexible polyurethane bag.
Lance Berkman says the Power Bag is the
perfect tool for developing a strong finish
to any swing. He credits a similar device
his father made with much of the power
he has in his wrist and forearms.
----------------------------------
The POWER BAG produces BIG TIME POWER!
----------------------------------
Hitting the ball with authority requires
power and strength at contact which results
in more spring off of the bat head.
----------------------------------
Bat speed is crucial for hitting the ball a
long way, but if there is give in the wrist
at contact much of the benefit of bat speed
is lost.
----------------------------------
Strengthening the hands, wrist and forearms
by using the Power Bag will decrease bat recoil
and cause the ball to JUMP off of your bat.
----------------------------------
Construction:
----------------------------------
The Power bag is made of flexible,
tear-resistant and durable polyurethane.
It is filled with a light foam. The bag is
suspended by cable and steel tubing with a
turnbuckle that connects to a mounted top
arm. This allows the bag to move in the
direction the batter powers the bag.
With solid dead on contact the bag should
move in a straight line. The bag can be
removed from the top arm for storage by
simply removing a ring pin.
----------------------------------
What is included?
----------------------------------
Each Power Bag unit comes complete
including the top arm and u-bolts which
can be mounted to a pole 3 ˝ “diameter or
smaller. For larger poles we have 5 ˝
u-bolts available (please call for these).
The top arm could also be mounted to a wood
surface using wood screws or bolts.

Teaches Explosive Hitting Mechanics
----------------------------------
-----The Power Bag gives instant feedback by
forcing the hitter to keep their weight
back and use good hip rotation to drive
through the bag.
-----If done incorrectly, the bag will
not move as far as it will with good
technique.
-----The hitter must also have the hands
in a position of strength. Rolling the
wrist early or releasing late will result
in a weak hit.
-----The Power bag in many ways allows a
hitter to teach themselves to be strong
at contact with proper mechanics.
-----A hitters long term goal should be
to drive the bag completely around in a circle.

Question: Is it better than a tire?
--------------------
You bet it is! The Power Bag was specifically
designed to allow the hitter to swing through
the bag. A ball is in contact with a bat only
1/2000 of a second and some will have you believe
any energy spent after contact is wasted. In
theory this is correct, but how many times as
a coach or parent have you noticed players of
all ages give up on a swing? By teaching players
to always finish their swing strong “completely”
through the ball, you help them develop good
habits that eventually translate into harder
hit balls and sound muscle memory mechanics.
