RSI or ‘Reactive Strength Index’ is a simple division of the calculated Jump height by the previous contact time for that jump. This measure has no units, hence we call it an index. The higher the index, the better the jump.

Body Rotation: A swing that has the appropriate relative contributions of body and bat rotations is an efficient and Powerful swing that maintains proper sequencing. An efficient baseball swing is one in which the body creates the initial movements, which is then transferred to the arms and out to the bat, thereby maximizing Bat Speed through this proximal-to-distal kinematic sequencing movement pattern.
