Timing has 3 layers. (1) Start - optimal to your move and the velo you're facing, (2) read as you land in optimal position to tigger- need some control, (3) get your swing off. Within these layers is optimal vision. Go, See, the Ball!
Problems... start late, no control, trying to swing so hard that you have no vision. Balance/Vision/Timing!

First Timing Segment- Hand break to release. Hitters will determine how much time they need to use in this segment. It's free time. Some use it all, some just use some it. Using all/or most of it can create an advantage in tempo/control/vision/balance. You only have so much time.
When we start and how we move, up to the time of release, may determine what we can see at release. Some hitters have the ability to pick up the slightest change in the arm/hand/grip. Moving with the intent to see at release changes how we move.
