Do you want explosive power on the
mound?
With proper
pitching
mechanics you can increase your velocity by 3-10
mph.Yes you
can!Don’t get caught
up lifting heavy weights thinking that is the
formula for throwing harder.You do need to condition your body to
perform at your best and weight lifting is part of
it.However, pitchers
aren’t body builders.You won’t throw faster bulking
up.In fact, doing
that could decrease velocity and lead to injury if
you Pitching Videos don’t know
pitching specific
workouts.
Success leaves
clues!
Successful pitchers who throw hard have
left us great clues.
Some of the best pitchers of all time,
like Nolan Ryan, worked extremely hard on their
mechanics.
In fact, Nolan Ryan used to work with
Tom House, who is known as the “Father of Pitching
Mechanics.”
When Nolan was giving his commencement
speech during his induction in the Hall of Fame, he
attributed his long term success to working with Tom on
his pitching
mechanics.
That is a clue! All pitchers should
continue to educate themselves about proper throwing
mechanics.
Not only do pitching
mechanics add years to your career; they reduce the
risk of arm injury.
Using proper leveraging techniques that
propel your body forward, in the right direction, is the key
to increased pitching velocity.
For example, increasing your
stride length and using your landing leg as a leveraging
tool to propel yourself forward helps you throw
harder.
Of course, there is a right and a wrong
way of doing this. Click here!
If
you take the time to learn how your body works mechanically,
you too will be able to throw faster and have a healthy,
longer and of course more successful
career.
If you are serious about increasing your
velocity and learning how to throw like Nolan Ryan and many
Hall of Fame pitchers; we encourage you to invest in your
pitching education.
