Physiological Effects of Triggers in Hitters: Fear, Nervousness, and AnxietyAdrenaline Surge: Jitteriness from stress-induced adrenaline.Increase in Cortisol Levels: Affects cognitive functions and muscle coordination.Elevated Heart Rate: Can disrupt timing and rhythm.Restricted Vision: Stress can lead to tunnel vision.Muscle Tension: Leads to less fluid movements and mechanical errors.Impaired Decision Making: Stress can lead to swinging at bad pitches.Confidence TriggersEndorphin Release: Enhances focus and mood.Decreased Cortisol Levels: Promotes relaxation.Optimal Heart Rate: Facilitates better control and decision making.Enhanced Brain Function: Improved decision making and focus.Muscle Readiness: Allows for a powerful swing.2. Ensuring Hitters Approach the Plate with Confidence: Mindset: Believe in your approach and plan against the pitcher.Research: Use available resources to understand the opposing pitcher.Walk-Up Routine:Look far away (e.g., a flag pole) to see wind direction.Observe the scoreboard.Note outfield and infield player positions.Recall your strategy for the pitcher, catcher, and umpire's game style.3. Personal Story: Ethan's Journey Ethan's struggles due to consistently being on losing teams.The importance of neutralizing emotions and altering perspectives.Ethan's transformation into a college player in a winning program in Pennsylvania.4. Conclusion and Takeaway: Harnessing the right mindset, understanding the pitcher, and employing a strategic walk-up routine are essential for achieving confident at-bats. It's more than just the physical; it's also about the mental and emotional. Every hitter has the potential to find their confidence, just as Ethan did.
