Describe how a coach would give advice to an athlete to change their center of gravity in order to improve performance.

Title Your Name Subject and Section Professor’s Name Date Center of Gravity in Baseball Techniques in Batting In order to increase the efficiency of the movement, the lecture for the athlete should contain information about body positioning, such as lowering the center of gravity (COG) and movement biomechanics by shifting the COG during the swing phase. Lowering the Center of Gravity To increase the efficiency of movement, the lecture for the athlete should contain information about body positioning and movement biomechanics. First, the coach could recommend that the athlete take a position that most likely shifts the athlete’s body weight toward the ground, which increases balance. This can be done by flexing the knee and opening the legs to approximately the shoulder width. The athlete should tilt slightly forward from the hips, ensuring the weight supports both feet. This position reduces the COG and gives a substantial foundation, which is very important when one is about to swing a bat (Burkett, 2019, pp. 90-95). In batting, stability is critical to ensure that the person has control throughout the swing. As much as swinging with force, the athlete can safely stay on the athlete’s feet when turning, thanks to a lower position of the individual's COG. This positioning stabilizes and recalibrates the momentum attained through the swing to minimize the chance...
