Are you struggling with a proper throwing warm-up? If yes, check out The Softball Throwing Warm-Up!

Stop guessing what your team’s throwing warm-up should be and learn how to make it effective, consistent AND practical with High Level Throwing®

The landscape of teaching throwing mechanics has changed! Throwing is a series of movement patterns and sequencing!

Athletes need to learn movements THROUGH positions of the throw, instead of practicing the same old, static positional set ups like the L-Drill and Wrist Flicks!

This Book includes the following:

• Warm Up & Prep Work
• Pre-Throwing Drills & Patterning
• Medicine Ball Throws
• High Level Throwing® Drills & Progression
• Overhand Long Toss Program
• Lightning Ball Training
• Recovery Training

The Water Bottle Drill is a great way to train Arm Pathway & Patterning for Baseball and Softball players that will help re-map and enhance an athlete’s understanding of arm pathway and arm shape with less resistance than an actual throw!

Less Resistance = Less Interference with your current throwing volume while enhancing the arm pattern!

How does this help coaches and athletes?

The Water Bottle Drill gives coaches a VISUAL CUE and athletes a KINESTHETIC AWARENESS of how the arm should move prior to ball release!

An efficient arm path will reduce the risk of shoulder and elbow stress by allowing the body to supply the force in a throw, not just the arm!

No more Wrist Flicks, “L-Drills” or Static Positions being taught! Find out how this drill teaches Movement THROUGH Positions for a fluid, seamless and effortless movement through ball release!

Coaches, Are you still teaching Wrist Flicks? Do you still believe Wrist Flicks create backspin and strengthens the wrist? How do we teach proper arm patterns and sequencing to our athletes in order to maximize their throwing potential and minimize the risk of injury? What mistakes are YOU making in your instruction that may be detrimental to an athlete’s throwing potential?
