Are Throwing Problems Caused by The Yips?

How The Yips Change Your Throwing

In our new video series, Dr. Patrick Cohn talks about the throwing yips in baseball.

If you think you have the yips or know someone who may be struggling with the yips, contact us today to learn more about our mental coaching programs for baseball yips.

When throwing to either the pitcher or second base, one throw is more tense than the other.

Why are short throws harder to throw than throwing down to second base?

Watch the video to see what Dr. Cohn says about why your throw changes depending on the distance.
