1: Alan Jaeger recommends to use the velcro straps. I would go with him, he invented them. 2: Don't move the elbow or hands past the shoulder. Very possible to irritate the anterior part of the shoulder capsule (Eric Cressey recommendation). 3: To keep scap involvement, don't pull it down. That engages traps and holds the scap in place. Scaps gotta move. Keep shoulder in neutral position, but don't pull scaps down.
Correct, you should use jbands before you do any throwing to get the blood flowing... We use these on our off days as well. It gives the arm a good workout without having to throw (which is great for those players who don't have someone to throw with)
This is a batting question, im a right hand hitter and when I hit the ball I get good distance, but it always fouls over the the 3rd base foul line, how do I change that
Your probably swinging to early if your pulling everything. It may also have something to do with your technique. Could be pulling off the ball, etc... Best thing to do is get someone to take a video of your at bats so you could then go back and evaluate where the problem is... hope this helps, good luck!
How old should you be when you start this program. My son is 7 and he can throw a baseball about 50 yards but i don't if he can start doing this or heavy balls without getting hurt.
Hey Finn, you don't really need to gain weight to throw harder. I'm sure it may help, but focus more on exercises/drills that make your arm/shoulder/legs stronger. There are a ton of them on this site! Good luck!

Great stuff as always! Keep up the good work guys!
This helps to prevent injury too, right?
LearnPitching yes
Can I do all these exercises every day or one day and another not? And how many repetitions are recommended?
Thank you guys.
Thanks Coach this video helps alot. One thing i want to ask that before throwing the ball, I do this jband exercise?

John Hanson thank you
My son is 11 is something he could do? If so how often? Everyday, before he throws or just before he pitches? Thanks.
Ryan Sonksen just like 3-4 times a week. As long as you don’t push crazy hard ( 10 reps for each workout), he could probably do these anytime he wants
Can all baseball players do this even if they don’t pitch?
Yes

B Sickau Start him early with bands(now,) put heavy balls on hold until high school.
How many reps for each movement?
He said 10-12 but listen to your arm if it’s hurting he talks about here 3:00
How long to wait in between each set?
SullyStrong it’s continuous

hey, i got a question. i want to throw harder so i need to gain weight. can you make a video on food to gain weight?
Hey Finn, you don't really need to gain weight to throw harder. I'm sure it may help, but focus more on exercises/drills that make your arm/shoulder/legs stronger. There are a ton of them on this site! Good luck!

What should I do to help me stop throwing side arm?
Why stop?
Can you make recovery video for a long travelball weekend
Hey coach, love the channel! What are some different types of fastballs that I can throw if the 2 and 4 Seams are getting hammered?
Practice throwing cutters and sinkers
Hit spots first. If you can't locate a fastball then you won't play high level ball
Try working on a Sinker or Changeup
throw harder
off-speed
Should I do this every day?
Daniel 3-5 times a week
