“For any particular athlete, they're given strength and flexibility skill level. We can look at the sequence of their hip, chest arm, bat and help them get faster in minutes... You can instantly see somebody's kinematic sequence and tell them where they're powerleaks are and then sometimes have 10, 15% bat speed increase in seconds. -Sang Kim [10:11]
