New in WIN: The CHIPS Performance Training Track

“You just stepped into the CHIPS Performance universe and I promise, this is different.”


WIN Reality is proud to introduce its newest custom training experience: the CHIPS Performance Training Track, built in collaboration with nationally recognized hitting coach Alex Hale of CHIPS Performance. This isn’t reps for reps’ sake. It’s a game-ready system designed for players who want real results and are ready to put in the work to earn them.

Whether you’re 8U or Pro, this 5-week progression is built to sharpen the approach, balance, timing, and mindset you need to compete at the next level.

Why CHIPS?

Alex Hale isn’t just another trainer. He’s a game-changer.

As a former college standout turned hitting development leader, Hale has earned a loyal following for his no-fluff, high-intent coaching style. He’s helped thousands of athletes, from youth ballplayers to college commits, refine their swing, sharpen their mental game, and walk into the box with swagger.


“This is pitch tracking, timing, and the mental edge that changes careers…once you train like this, you won’t want to go back.”


Now, that approach lives inside WIN Reality in a fully immersive VR training track that brings his system to life across five progressive weeks.

What’s Inside the CHIPS Training Track

This isn’t a random set of drills. Each week stacks on the last, with focused, high-intensity sessions that sharpen a specific aspect of your game:

Control the Zone

The foundation gets laid here. You’ll train to recognize spin, identify strikes, and spit on anything that doesn’t play. Whether you’re new to the box or a college hitter, this week builds your ability to slow the game down and see the pitch early.

Command the Chaos

Now it’s time to level up your zone control and patience. You’ll face pitch sequences that force you to wait for your pitch and do damage. The goal? Don’t chase. Don’t flinch. Attack with intent.

Middle Mastery & Timing the Tough Stuff

This week is about controlling the barrel in space. You’ll learn to handle inside and outside pitches with precision, while older hitters will dial in their timing against high heat and tough off-speed.

A-Swing Protocol

Time to lock in your best swing. Every drill is designed to train rhythm, feel, balance, and bat speed. You’ll learn to stay explosive, without being rushed, and build the swing that works under pressure.

High-Velocity Game Prep

This is playoff mode. You’re facing high velo, advanced sequences, and pressure scenarios designed to test your approach. If you’ve done the work, it’ll show up here.

How It Works: The Power of WIN Reality

The CHIPS Training Track is just one part of the WIN Reality hitting ecosystem, the VR platform built to train the one skill most hitters never truly master: game-speed decisions.

Here’s the truth: most players don’t fall behind because of their mechanics. They fall behind because they’ve never trained to see the game.

They’ve had tee work. Flips. Cages. But what’s been missing is the ability to recognize pitches, stay on time, and make fast, confident decisions when it counts. That’s not something you can rep easily, unless you’re using WIN.

Train Smarter Inside WIN

With WIN Reality’s TrainVR, you get unlimited reps against realistic pitch movement, velocity, and decision pressure without picking up a bat. It’s how hitters build cognitive skills that separate them when the lights are on.

Core WIN Reality Training Modes Include:

  • Batting Practice: Face game-speed pitching and refine timing.
  • Pitch Recognition: Identify pitch type and zone without swinging.
  • Disappearing Pitch: Recognize early before the pitch vanishes.
  • Recognition Window: Train “yes-yes-no” timing with instant feedback.
  • Release Point Drill: Discipline your eyes to see the pitch out of the hand.
  • Exhibition Mode: Simulated at-bats with custom pressure and sequencing.

Every mode delivers high-volume, targeted reps, designed to build instincts, not just technique.

Personalized Reps, Real Progress

WIN’s training doesn’t just adapt by age or level. It adapts every rep to your unique focus areas with Modifiers.

You can control:

  • Pitch Type (Fastballs, offspeed, or full mix)
  • Pitch Location (Strikes, balls, zone targeting)
  • Difficulty Level (Beginner to pro-level velocity and sequencing)
  • Visual Cues (Train reaction time and visual processing)
  • Pressure Scenarios (Simulate 0–2, 3–2, or situational at-bats)

Modifiers + CHIPS-style programming = reps that match your game and grow your skills fast.

Why Workouts & Tracks Matter

The CHIPS Performance Training Track is more than just drills. It’s a structured program that stacks:

  • Drills to isolate specific skills
  • Modifiers to tailor difficulty
  • Workouts to simulate real-game scenarios

This structure helps players practice not just how to swing but when and why to swing. That’s the edge CHIPS trains. That’s the WIN Reality difference.

Start Training With CHIPS Today

This is next-gen player development, now in your headset. The CHIPS Performance Training Track is available now inside WIN Reality. From youth to pro, if you’re serious about becoming a complete hitter, this is where the work starts.

So step in. Commit. And bring the swagger.

Why We Acquired Blast Motion

I’ve always believed that the future of player development lies at the intersection of elite instruction, real-time feedback, and scalable technology. For me, that belief is personal. From the moment I picked up a bat, I was lucky to be surrounded by people who helped shape my journey from Little League to college ball, to a career in professional baseball. At every level, I had access to world-class coaching, critical feedback, and timely guidance from some of the best minds in the game. When I struggled, there was always someone like Todd Helton in the cage or Clint Hurdle with
