 Steve,

     "Your program is working wonders for me. My arm feels sooo strong. I'm throwing 7 mph harder (98) and have never felt better. Thank you so much."

 
Aaron Thorne, minor league pitcher 


College Baseball

  Steve, 

     "I am a 20 year old junior college pitcher at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore.  My brother introduced me to your program,  which I started in July. 

     "First off, I would like to thank you for publishing such a wonderful program.  The fall of my freshmen year I was throwing 77-79 topping out pretty much at 80. This fall my velocity was great, being consistently clocked from 82- 85 and hitting 88 a couple of times!"

  Ryan Kealy, Johns Hopkins University, 
  Baltimore, MD


High School Baseball

     "After doing this program, I am convinced that my son will have the strongest throwing arm on the team as a freshman this coming season.  The results have been little short of astounding." 

  Doug S., St. Paul, MN


Youth Baseball

     "Just wanted to tell you how successful your programs are for me and my son. We've been doing the hitting and throwing drills for three months now... He's a 5'4" 145 lbs 12yr old catcher/3rd baseman. His throws have gone up 10 mph across the corners.  

     "Playing on 90' bases this fall has been an easy adjustment and, thanks to your programs, next spring will be a blast . I highly recommend this for any child planning on moving up to 60'/90' baseball!  He's the best player on his team now and wants to meet you someday. Thanks for the help!"

     I realize this may sound like a pretty bold claim, so read on as I explain fully how my baseball throwing strength & conditioning workout can improve your baseball throwing arm and increase the velocity of your baseball pitches and throws. In fact, while it isn't easy to develop an awesome baseball throwing arm, the training process for developing one is actually fairly simple using the proven methods I teach in this program. Let's start with what to look for in any baseball throwing program.

     What My Program Will Do For You:

1) Increases Strength of the muscles and tendons involved in throwing (via throwing all 3 types of balls, particularly the overweight ball). This higher level of strength creates tougher muscles/tendons, greatly improving injury-resistance.

2) Increases Strength-Endurance of the muscles and tendons involved in throwing (especially important). Training with the 6 oz ball makes competing with the 5 oz ball “easier,” leading to more innings pitched, more throws made from the field.

3) Develops Increased Arm Speed via the under-weight ball.  Because this ball is lighter than normal, the arm “learns” to accelerate through the throwing range of motion more quickly.  Faster arm movement translates to increased throwing velocity.  This is also known as “OVERSPEED” training.

     It is indisputable that you can swing a lighter bat faster than a heavy bat. It is the same with throwing a lighter baseball!

4) Less incidence of injury.  Each time you complete the program, the structures of your throwing arm will become more conditioned and resistant to pain and injury. 

5) An increase in throwing velocity of as much as 4-6 mph.  Gains of more than 10 mph are not unusual.  The time frame will vary for this, but you ordinarily will begin seeing noticeable results around week six.

Steve,

Before your throwing program I was overloaded with info I had seen on the web, without the knowledge or experience to figure what was reasonable, what was false, and what was fluff.

     You need a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist to guide you through a training process for increasing the velocity of your baseball pitches and throws … with no baloney!

     A strength and conditioning specialist is capable of designing a safe and effective baseball throwing program to help you strengthen and protect your baseball throwing arm. 

     Such a specialist also motivates and encourages you to reach your goal of increasing the velocity of your baseball pitches and throws and is a resource for the latest information on health and fitness. 

     I hold a Bachelor of Science in Physical Education from Brigham Young University and a Masters of Science in Business Management from Lesley College Graduate School. I also hold numerous certifications and memberships. For example, I am:

  • A Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist with the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA)

  • A Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) with the American Institute of Fitness Educators (AIFE)

  • A member of the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM)

  • A member of the NSCA's Baseball Special Interest Group

     In short, I bring over thirty years of combined experience as an athlete, coach, and physical fitness specialist to every training program I develop.

     As a result, you can count on this baseball throwing program having two key objectives:

1) Making sure it improves your playing performance by strengthening your baseball throwing arm and increasing the velocity of your baseball pitches and throws, and

2) Doing so safely.

"He added about 5-6 mph with no injuries"

Steve,

I
used your arm strengthening workout for my son last year during the off season. The program worked great! 

D. H., Diana, TX


You need a tested training program that has proven results from literally THOUSANDS of players for increasing the velocity of baseball & softball pitches and throws!

In three well known baseball throwing and pitching studies (there are several more), Dr. Coop DeRenne of the University of Hawaii proved that high school and college ballplayers using a simple training regime of regulation sized baseballs and under/over weighted balls within 15% to 20% of regulation weight could quickly and effectively produce remarkable increases in the velocity of their baseball pitches and throws.

But here's what's so amazing… the under weight ball increased the velocity of baseball pitches the most! Take a look at the graph of the results from Dr. DeRenne's 1990 study of 30 high school varsity pitchers ages 16 to 18.

The study was repeated in 1994 with 45 high school (ages 16-17) and 180 college pitchers (ages 19-20) with similar improvements in the velocity of baseball pitches.

You'll be interested to know that Tom House, former player and coach for The Texas Rangers and a pitching consultant to many major league stars like Cy Young Award winner Randy Johnson (Diamondbacks) and Mark Prior (Cubs), is another well-known proponent of this over/under-load baseball throwing training method.  For more information on OverLOAD/OverSPEED Training, click here.

Steve,

"I implemented the weighted baseball throwing program for our high school pitchers beginning March 25. When I gunned them on May 5 the average gain was 3.5 mph. We've had enough success that I convinced my college head coach to let me institute it with our college pitchers."  

UPDATE: "in 2005, Wartburg made it to the D-3 College World Series and we had 3 All Central Region pitchers with one of those also making All-American."

     You need step-by-step details spelled out clearly by someone who knows how your body works when it makes high velocity baseball pitches and throws.

     I've trained and coached players of all ages and ability levels. I have coached championship baseball teams in California, Wyoming, Minnesota and Michigan. This is a step-by-step baseball throwing strength and conditioning workout designed to increase the velocity of your baseball pitches and throws.

     It is NOT a "how to pitch" program. The program is written to cut through all the "stuff" out there to provide simple and effective information that works. It is short and sweet (20 pages), so you can start training and strengthening your baseball throwing arm quickly.


"I'm close to throwing consistently in the low 90's"

        Steve,

"I have been using your baseball throwing arm strength and speed development program. I'm pleased to say I've made some great improvements."

Steve,

"I bought your [baseball] throwing velocity program last year, along with the three balls for my son. He was the starting shortstop on the team from Hawaii that went to the Little League World Series. It has worked out great. 

This year everyone that sees him throw tells me how hard he is throwing. You can really see it, and he threw pretty hard before. He just throws that much harder now. So thanks."

     "No discomfort following shoulder surgery"

Steve,


I am coming off a shoulder injury and in the past 2 months have followed your throwing program and have yet to feel the slightest discomfort so far this season.

After my first start I went 6 innings with no discomfort to my shoulder what-so-ever and that is twice the amount of time I would have went anytime last year, healthy or not.


Pete Pruginic, Winston Salem, NC

Here's the bottom line on this incredible baseball throwing program -

The Baseball Fit Arm Conditioning and Throwing Velocity Program will:

  • Guide you step-by-step through a proven 12 week baseball throwing program
  • Teach you nine special Rotator Cuff training exercises
  • Give you expert advice on how to keep your Rotator Cuff healthy and strong
  • Provide you free, fast on-line access to me for training questions and support (I'll respond promptly within 24 hours)

But, before you purchase the throwing program you must know the following…

Warning: Do NOT buy any baseball throwing program for increasing the velocity of your baseball pitches or throws unless it meets the following criteria:

One: Explains to you exactly how to perform your baseball throwing regimen.

Two: Is based on tested training methods with proven measurable results of increasing the velocity of baseball pitches and throws.

Three: Uses training tools that closely duplicate your baseball throwing style to reduce the risk of injury or unwanted changes to your baseball throwing mechanics.

Four: Shows you how to condition and protect your Rotator Cuff.

Five: Gives you fast, FREE access to a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist.

Six: Is designed and written by a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist with experience in working with baseball and softball players.

IMPORTANT NOTE #2: This IS NOT a "How to Pitch" or "How to Throw" instructional booklet. There are many of those on the market already. My program details a Strength & Conditioning workout designed specifically to improve the strengthen of softball and baseball throwing arms and the velocity of underhand AND overhand softball and baseball pitches.

This baseball throwing program is priceless!

I get paid by the hour for private pitching lessons. You will learn the same things I'm teaching my students. I've helped countless players improve their softball and baseball throwing velocity and become more successful on the playing field. Since there's only one of me and because I get a kick out of helping ball players reach their goals, I've created this program.

In summary, here's what you get:

A breakthrough baseball throwing program to improve velocity of your softball or baseball pitches and throws in as little as 6 weeks plus a conditioning program and advice on how to take care of your Rotator Cuff with free, fast access to me for answers to your training questions and support.

All for the very reasonable price of $24.95  

You can also SAVE BIG by selecting one of these special softball or baseball throwing training packages:

BASEBALL THROWING PACKAGE

Baseball Throwing Velocity Package  Save 10% when you purchase a set of weighted baseballs together with the Baseball Fit Throwing Velocity Program - only $47.65 + $10.75 s/h.

Click Here to Order

Start increasing the velocity of your baseball pitches and throws right away. Get the best results with your own under, over and regulation weight and regulation sized baseballs. These balls weigh within the weight ranges shown to safely and effectively increase the velocity of baseball pitches as much as 4 to 6 mph. Proper ball weight is KEY to getting the best results!

CAUTION: Avoid substituting baseballs weighing 7 ounces or more, or softballs weighing over 8 ozs. Your body recruits additional motor units (that are not ordinarily used in throwing a regular game-weight ball) to propel them. This can alter your throwing mechanics and may lead to control problems and/or cause injury.

Works GREAT for Softball Players, too!

SOFTBALL THROWING PACKAGE

Softball Throwing Velocity Package: Save 10% when you purchase a set of weighted softballs together with the Baseball Fit Throwing Velocity Program for just $53.95, plus $11.75 for shipping & handling.

Click Here to Order

Start increasing your velocity right away. Get the best results with your own under, over and regulation weight and regulation sized softballs. These balls are within the weight ranges shown to increase throwing velocity as much as 4 to 6 mph.

ATTENTION SOFTBALL PLAYERS: This training increases velocity for both overhand AND underhand throwing. While there are differences in technique between fastpitch pitching and overhand throwing, this program works because it is NOT dependent on throwing mechanics. The muscles and tendons used in both types of throwing are strengthened and developed by the same training principles. These conditioning effects occur regardless of the type of throw being made.

Using the "over-weight" ball develops Strength-Endurance, and the "under-weight" ball Arm-Overspeed, or moving a joint more quickly through it's range of motion. Developing both of these characteristics increases throwing strength & velocity while reducing the chance of arm injury.
 

   "She has had some 58 mph pitches as a 14 year old."

Steve,

She has pitched really well and has thrown 2 no hitters this year so far and is working really hard. We used your training manual along with your three weighted softball workout throughout the winter... The workout helped her pick up her speed. As a 12 year old, she has been timed with radar with a 12" ball at 50 mph.  She has been timed with the 11" ball which is for league use at 53 mph." 

UPDATE:  "I have not talked to you in a while, but things here have been going pretty good. My daughter is getting ready to start high school fall ball and will be playing 16u next summer. She played 14u the past two years and has had two really good seasons. She is the little girl that used your weighted ball program and got her speed up to 51 mph as a 12 year old, and now.
