Four Pitching Tips To Think About This Weekend

I've always found it easier to learn new things when they were presented in smaller doses. You may be the same. So here are four pitching tips on pitching workouts, pitching drills and pitching strategy to think over the next few days.   

1. Leg strength, Leg strength, Leg Strength. One can generate more velocity and maintain
stamina by having strong legs. You don't have to have big legs to have strong legs.

2. If a pitcher/player wants to improve his arm strength, long tossing and light dumbbells and
tubing exercises will be the most beneficial. Long tossing is very important, but make sure its under control.

3. If you have a problem throwing across your body, try using a 2x6 wooden board.
Stand on it in your stretch position and go through your mechanics (without the ball)
If you land straight, you'll land on the board every time.

4. Never be to fine with your changeup, always try to throw it for strikes.
Let the movement and your arm speed throw the hitter off.
