Re: Improving grip
I am so pleased you noticed a difference Rob; if you have a bat you like, it's best to stick with it.
Thank you very much for giving me feedback on this, it means so much to me.
Keep the weights on when you are practicing and if you include rotator cuff exercises, there will be a noticeable difference in the power of your shots.

Re: Improving grip
Not as much as the good old press up. In fact, recent studies using electromyography have shown that a narrower than shoulder width hand position requires more triceps work than the shoulder or wider than shoulder hand positions and it also results in greater pectoralis involvement per repetition performed. The posterior press (arms underneath the body towards the waist) uses the pectoralis muscle even more!
The powerball activates different muscles depending on the position of your arm. Hopefully the instructions will help you with this.
