ANCORE at the MLB Winter Meetings: The Secret Weapon Driving Hitting and Pitching Power Across Major Leagues
The 2024 MLB Winter Meetings in Dallas at the Hilton Anatole Hotel provided a prime opportunity for ANCORE to connect with coaches, team managers, and professionals from across Major League Baseball. Isaac Lewis, co-founder at ANCORE, was in attendance, meeting with coaches and discussing how ANCORE’s cutting-edge products are integrated into the training regimens of both major and minor league teams.
With 90% of MLB teams now using ANCORE products, it’s clear that the company’s reputation in the world of professional baseball has solidified. One of the key aspects that make ANCORE’s products so essential to teams is their ability to provide unparalleled support for rotational resistance training. In baseball, rotational speed and power are critical for both hitting and pitching. ANCORE’s products, which offer variable resistance, allow athletes to train these movements effectively, enhancing their performance on the field.
In a sport like baseball, where precision and power are crucial, rotational movements play a significant role in every aspect of the game. ANCORE’s resistance training tools are uniquely designed to improve the strength and speed required for explosive rotational movements, ensuring athletes develop the necessary mechanics for success. From increasing bat speed to improving pitching velocity, the impact of ANCORE products can be seen in key performance metrics.
Another major benefit ANCORE provides to professional baseball teams is its portability. Baseball players and coaches are all too familiar with the challenges of training on the road, spending half of the season traveling from stadium to stadium. Many teams face the issue of inconsistent access to training facilities, which can disrupt athletes' preparation. ANCORE’s compact and easily transportable units ensure that players can continue their training wherever they go, providing consistent resistance training, even when they are away from their home facilities.
During his time at the Winter Meetings, Isaac had the opportunity to speak with coaches about the value ANCORE brings to their teams. Whether it's the convenience of training on the road or the impact of rotational resistance on player development, ANCORE products continue to be an indispensable part of baseball training regimens.
Additionally, numerous MLB players have recognized the value of ANCORE products and have added them to their home gyms for off-season training. With the off-season being a critical time for players to maintain and enhance their fitness, ANCORE’s portable resistance units offer an excellent way for athletes to continue their development away from team facilities. Whether fine-tuning their rotational strength or staying in peak physical condition, players are increasingly turning to ANCORE to stay ahead of the competition during the off-season.
The Winter Meetings served as a reminder of how far ANCORE has come in supporting professional baseball. With its products now in the hands of nearly every MLB team and countless minor league affiliates, ANCORE is proud to continue serving the sport by helping players build the strength, power, and endurance they need to succeed on the field—no matter where the season takes them.
