Description:
The program itself is a program. It is 5 weeks through the month of November and December, (2) two sessions per week for one hour where we focus on arm health, strength, arm movement clean up/improvement, routines for arm care and full body movement explosiveness all related to pitching. Our strategies utilize total body strength routines and exercises to promote recovery, health and pitching ability. Each player gets tested in our first meeting and then we identify mechanical areas for improvement as well as, strength and flexibility functionality areas to improve. All of our sessions will have elements of drill throwing techniques (very light) from reduced distance to promote desired arm actions and lower half power transferring. Each student is also given routines and instruction of what to do outside of the sessions as well. THIS IS NOT BULLPEN THROWING AT ALL. It's the time of year we really focus on a foundational setting.
Instruction starts with a series of (10) one hour blocks of curriculum. Classes are capped at 4 students per session, per age group to ensure each student gets real hands on direction. These classes are for serious, experienced, high level pitchers and position players only, who have a desire to produce at a high level. Players must be willing to push themselves, and be ready to work and learn!
