The Best Way To Increase The College Baseball Pitcher
December 19th, 2008 by sports12 | No Comments | Filed in Sports Nutrition ProgramsEvery college pitcher is looking to increase his pitching velocity. Most pitchers are throwing below 85 mph. For many an extra 3-6 mph of pitching velocity could mean not only much better performance but for some, it is a ticket to their dream…a chance to play pro baseball.
Unfortunately, many college coaches are giving out very poor advice on baseball pitching drills to pitchers who want to maximize their velocity. They tell them this time of year to go off and play summer ball and work on getting bigger and stronger. Bad, bad advice. Neither more weight training nor more long toss is going to have much of an effect on improving velocity, and yet the large majority of coaches at the high school and college levels do not know this.
