Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Baseball batting is important to winning the games. Baseball batting is achieved by proximal-to-distal sequencing of body movements and controlled by the neuromuscular system. Poor lumbopelvic control could influence production and transfer of energy in the kinetic chain. This study aims to investigate the effects of functional movement training on hitting mechanics and bat swing velocity in high school baseball players.
