02 / SET UP
What you need
Use paper target zones and a ball or dry motion based on workload.
03 / PRACTICE IT
How to do the drill
After a miss, name one controllable factor (balance or target), reset, try again with gentle effort.
ONE CUE TO REMEMBER“Next pitch, new plan.”
04 / PLAY IT
Today's skill-game challenge
