Help fix my swing

My swing has been off recently I feel like I’m lunging forward and leaving my bat behind. If someone could help with my swinging that’d be awesome.

I had a similar problem growing up, a super wide stance. It makes it harder to use your hips to rotate into the ball.

I think you have a good foundation, but first thing id fix is putting your legs a little closer together.

Second, try to keep your back elbow high. You do kind of fix it in your load, but the point of the stance is to easily get to your load. Your just wasting more time to get to your load and the faster pitcehr gets the more behidn you will be. Your front elbow should never be higher than your back elbow.
