have a plan

Building a good foundation of mechanics has a lot to go with being able to repeat the mechanics. A lot of before and after videos are good to visualize and learn from instead of just being told "good job". Make sure if you look good then you play good. Your mechanics and your own swag are what helps you have the confidence vs any #3 or #4 hitter in the nation. Its your delivery and I work with what works for you as a pitcher. Many times in the offseason its good to have minor league guys around the younger players learning what they are being taught at the professional level. 

Players need to be able to handle a long season. It is imperative to make sure that physically you are ready to not only compete with your teammates, but to out work them in every aspect on and off the field. The weight room can help bring our competitive signals and many times build confidence a player might not of had before. Learning the Hip hinge and being able to elongate you spine is the big focus with stability. Knee and ankle stability hold a lot of value to these movements as we need to be able to use the ground in our movements in order to get the max out of our bodies. 

Throwing programs are developed in this class to help the player open up the shoulders and build strength in the arm throwing. To be able to see the increase in velocity the player must first know how to player long toss using the body correctly and secondly the player needs something progressive to visually be able to see the difference.  Players are encouraged to build arm strength by throwing. We use an application on our phones that help us hold the data of our progression and movements that are being taught at the MLB-Junior College level. 

Trackman Data can be used for a profile and put into the National Database. You get the profile for coaches to be able to see your pitches and movement on your ball. In order for you to be successful as a pitcher, you need a tool box of pitches to use in a game. This tool helps show velocity and ball movement on each pitch also showing many other variables to being able to repeat a pitch and know how the ball will move. 

Having a arm care routine is important to being able to maintain the entire season with so much throwing that is required. In this class we try to develop arm strength and prepare you for a long season by learning different techniques and program to help build your own program for wherever you are in your baseball career.
