In terms of neutral and non-neutral spinal mechanics, the front leg plays a huge role in determining how energy is transferred in the throw.

But DeGrom’s upper half and hips mirror the slope of the mound.” Yeah DeGrom also has ++ levers and numerous other outlier qualities. For the rest of us less gifted folk, we probably should take notes from the less genetically gifted throwers out there. Cont… 👇🏽

More wins. I can assure you, there is a better way to command training than just telling pitchers to “attack the zone” or “JuSt tHrOw StrIK3S.” Command is a trainable quality. Stop expecting command to get better without putting some sort of emphasis on it.

If anyone remembers this cat drop stepping 96 with a grey ball, he’s back. #yearofthepec may be over… Jonah has Poland Syndrome. In his case, completely nonexistent pec major. Jonah’s assessment pen he sat 86-87 T88. Today he punched 94.5 and sat 92.6.

Spinal engine generally LOOKS a little different athlete to athlete. However, the mechanics/segmentation almost always result in the same outcome - as long as spinal capacity is ++.

On an anatomical level, an inefficient fastball/high degree of gyro spin is going to be determined by degree of supination at ball release. Oftentimes, pitchers that express this pattern may have a limited ability to internally rotate the shoulder OR lack the ability to pronate.

Every tissue in our body expresses the property “viscoelasticity.” Viscoelasticity is the combination of “viscosity” (resistance or submissiveness of fluid to flow) and elasticity (the ability to return to original shape/structure when loaded and unloaded.)

As a throwing development coach, it’s absolutely pivotal to be in comradery with the strength coaches you work with. Beyond that, understanding what and why things are important on the strength side can change how and what your program on the throwing side. 🧵

Kyle Cody came in this off season with a handful of arsenal adjustments staring us right in the face. We decided to keep the 2SFB instead of the 4SFB due to inconsistency in 4SFB shape vs 2SFB shape ( 14, -14.) His slider took more of a baby CB shape, nothing special, but

After we asses movement quality and capacity, we can get a decent idea of what said athlete needs. The key however, is assessing the right things.
