I pitched from little league to highschool and at age 13 I played travel baseball for coaches that played pro or college. Now I never made it to the pro or college level but I was taught well by those who did. Now I was taught as a pitcher to throw at a 45 degree angle and to pronate your throwing arm and make sure that you create an L shape and release the ball next to your ear. But as an infielder you have to have a short release point because you might have to turn a double play or get the fast runner out at first. The best way to avoid arm trouble is to throw as much as you can and make sure that you throw properly with easy tosses to begin with and then throw long tosses as well and make sure that you stretch properly as well. For those of you who are wanting to play at the highschool level and beyond now is the time to learn what you are being taught. Because when you get to the highschool level and beyond they expect you to know what you are doing if you want to make the team. Yes there will be some teaching moments but they expect you to know it because they are looking for players who wants it more

The arm is along for the ride. Hips, pelvis(core) and legs are the power source, the arm is for direction delivery.

5his drill could be done during dynamic stretching

I wish somebody had taken the time to do this when I was coming up. I played peewee ball, all the way up to juniors and ruined my arm in the process. By the time I was old enough to play serious ball where the college scouts were watching I was done and my throwing motion hurts whenever I do it all the rest of my days.

Consider purchasing a product called a lava lier microphone.. still good video advice. deal with audio issues its cheap to do and you will help more people if you do. Also strongly consider letting the kids see your eyes. This is coaching 101. With respect. Keep making vids and get better and more sharp. Good voice coach.

42 and got a cannon but recently a pinch right under the left plate in my back when my arm rotate

[buckybadger]

saw some negative comments, but i thought it was a good video, looks like the drill pertains more to right handed infielders throwing to first

[sheltonclemons]

This is exactly the opposite of what I was taught. Especially pitching. I get you need a quick release point but the constant whip action keeping your arm like that is what tears your shoulder up. When your arm pull back the ball should be facing away from you. Not the little short L whip thing he’s doing. Idk. It helped my arm a ton.

Disc golf is obviously different but throwing hard is not hard on the body if you have good posture and core strength. I could play for 6 hours in 100 degrees in san antonio, which disc golf is like hiking between every throw and each throw is at a different angle. The notion that throwing too much is bad is dumb to me. I wasn't a pitcher, so circumstances for them may be totally different. But any other position, throwing a lot is very good and you will get so used to it bc it becomes like walking.

Coach it’s called a crow hop been taught for years, Southern Illinois Itchy jones had his guys doing this in the early 70s

Dude I’m the black under armor shirt is raw 😎

Most of those kids don’t know half of what he’s telling them. They just do what they are told without a clue. Now if they were high schoolers or college players those words would sink in.

[TheRealTrucido]

Did they ever actually throw the ball?

[effthegop]

In the olden days we were only told 3 things. Hit it, catch it and throw it :)
That's why I could never throw a ball well. I played softball from age 45 to 65 and could never throw a ball. Always the worst on the team. This is some great coaching.

[albertlatscha]

I was always taught throwing has more to do with feet hips core way more them arm ...this guy is on point imo

[dannycancino]

Kid at 1:46 is one to keep an eye on if I was coaching. If no one is looking he’s not working. Maybe it’s a one off, maybe not.

Parents do research on what these coaches teach. Type B position is wrong. You do not want your elbow higher than your shoulder. That is called the inverted W throwing motion. Look up Mark Prior, Steven Strausberg. Sinking into your back leg is wrong, kills momentum. 3.9 seconds? Tell them at the pro level you need to throw over 90 mph across the diamond for short stops.

Because of the nutrition and modern training techniques Pitchers these days are throwing at the limit of human physiological ability. Yes, most can throw hard through high school and college and then a few years in the pros without substantial injury. It’s the accumulated damage that ends up needing repair. That’s why so many are damaging tendons and requiring Tommy John surgery a few years into their professional careers. No type of training will prevent it. Some are lucky and their body holds up. Many aren’t. Thankfully, there’s a technique to repair and get these elite athletes back on the mound with little loss of velocity.
