Baseball speed and agility training in Bellerose, NY works the first steps, acceleration, and changes of direction a baseball play actually uses.

First steps batting practice never coaches

Most baseball plays never become a full sprint. Players from Bellerose, Queens, and Nassau County need a quick start, balance moving sideways, and a stop they can control.

Speed Lab is the small-group session for that work. It is Wednesday at 5 PM. Adonis Cepeda runs it, with up to 10 athletes.

The read is right and the feet are late

A player can see the ground ball and still get there late. Another can barrel the ball and lose the first steps to first base.

Late jumpsthat show up in the game

Conditioning laps do not teach the first step out of the box or the stop-and-go on defense.

A slow start to first

The contact is fine. The first steps out of the box give the play away.

A fielder who sees the ball and cannot reach it

The path is clear. The feet do not cover it in time.

Sideways moves that lose balance

Defense asks for shuffles and crossovers. Falling off the line costs the play.

Turns that take extra steps

Stopping and redirecting is its own skill. It does not show up in a lap around the field.

Other skillsthat use that speed

Speed training supports the rest of the game. These are the other Bellerose pages families book.

Speed Lab is one of five GT Labs. Strength Lab is a separate session. Memberships can include both.

Parents after a few workouts

Players and parents on the work they came in to do.

Coach Juan is an amazing coach. His way of building these kids up in the game of baseball is by far the best I've seen. His knowledge of the science of baseball is superb along with the other coaches of Grindtime Baseball Academy. As a parent I believe in him and my son does also. Thanks coach... #TRUSTDAPROCESS ⚾⚾⚾ πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ

Athletes who come to Bellerose for speed work

Brooklyn players can book the same speed work. Spots in a lab are capped at 10, and Adonis Cepeda runs every lab. The session is for the first steps out of the box and on defense. You do not have to live in Bellerose to get on the schedule.
