bLaCjAcK Daniels This is why baseball isn’t popular with young Americans. Athletes are not just athletes, they are ENTERTAINERS, and until people like you get that, even the MLB’s best players like Trout won’t even be as popular as some NBA 6th men.
Don’t know why people are questioning these workouts. The man is a pro athlete that has to take care of his body to make sure it’s durable. That’s why he’s explaining it. That’s why he does a lot of prehab. He’s not a bodybuilder, he’s an athlete. Also, everyone saying that Puig, Thames, etc. are bigger. But Michael has a better physique and is probably a better athlete.
Shiloh Thompson and that’s what people don’t realize. The dudes just a monster athlete and knows what he needs to do. People shouldn’t be questioning anything he’s doing
TuzzinX he actually does a lot of stuff that people should do. A lot of people neglect a good warm up. He does all the warmup to keep his body in shape to do the workout. A lot of people should learn from his routine and try to add some things to theirs.
Reggie Stocker spine health is so important. Especially thoracic. A lot of baseball players have tight muscles on the anterior side of the body so they have to double up on pulling exercises and stretching to overcompensate for forward movements. Which baseball does a lot. Especially pitchers.
I played against Michael in high school. Guy was super humble about his talent. Not flashy. Not showing anyone up. Very respectful towards the game and you could tell he was a hard worker. Super glad to see him thriving in the pros!
Last season the Astros was swept by the Reds in the season series. Altuve played in every game and Lorenzen pitched in 2 of the 3 games and did nothing even cheating . Go set down.
I wish I had known the importance of being flexible, having full range of motion, and all that starting from high school. This dude is a freak in the gym. I wish I could've done some of these things back in the day
Keep the shoes on. I been in gyms 15 years you don’t know what kind of funk is on that floor.... ppls blood, sweat, etc.... it’s gross. You are not Arnold Schwarzenegger and this isn’t the 70’s or 80’s. Leave your damn shoes on you jabroni.
I just love his approach to training, his mindset and even the training itself. This is how you avoid chronic fatigue, burnouts and injuries. Pre-hab, stretching and mobility seem to be neglected these days, and that's how you keep your body young!
I played varsity baseball with Mike at Fullerton High school in California. He's a good dude with next level work ethic. We all knew he was gonna make it to the big leagues.
I finally got my hip labrum surgery, on top of many other damages I’ve neglected since diagnosed at USF 7 years ago to avoid surgery. We all, college and pro level athletes, we don’t wanna miss any opportunities to prevent us from keep moving up while others ahead while you sit back and recover. I REALLY WISHED I knew all of this in HS. Everything would be different. Labrum tear, UCL, any athletic needed ligament damage = -7mph, -0.5 40 dash. Damn I missed out. Hope kids take note on the prehab, rehab, and importance of doing “embarrassing exercises “ . Won’t be embarrassed when you hit the next level🙏🏽
I take every thing apart as parts.... and I polish them Bruh, actually makes so much sense, even the small screws and hoses have to be working so even tiny muscle groups etc all of it works together
B V I mean he’s living in LA, or at least training there. The smog alone is probably worse than any weed wraps lol... if we’re gonna get real specific.
Alexandre Woodworth it requires mobility to flexibility to strength to explosiveness to be durable and best in the game you see some bigger guys here and there that has a different skill they exceed at that compensates for some of the other skills and size
DenalPvP in a way, yes. A lot of baseball players have tight muscles on the anterior side of the body. So working on the back muscles help balance athletes out and make them more durable. Especially with all the work he does with his spine.
It can definitely improve your posture and many other aspects of your life. I have had the pleasure of learning from Ido Portal many years ago when I first started playing baseball and it has helped me greatly through college.
Jack Sofalot hate to be that “guy” but he’s doing that because over stretching the chest muscle could make it more developed and potentially limiting arm motion over head.
Show some deadlift with the bar handles facing downward! We do that in the Army and wanting to show my soldiers this. (P.S. coming from a college baseball background)
NASM CPT here; the dude is on point. I'm sure he's learned a lot from trainers 5x more qualified and intellengent than I, but his mobility work is amazing. Frankly I'm just personal taking pointers really. Wish more MLB players took better care of there mobility, stability, and flexibility the way Lorenzen does. Especially if you're a Yankee fan, because ffs Stanton. The muscles and power are great, but only if you're on the field.
And for anyone who would like to disagree the athleticism and mobility Lorenzen has: give that lower body warm up a try. Literally try and do a knee box jump just at 12-18 inches. It'll humble just about anyone real fast. The plyometric power it takes is really impressive.
if you want to know why he does this, just look at his stats Pitching: 22-21, 3.97 ERA, 385 K’s, .252 BAA, 1.37 WHIP Batting: .235 BA, .716 OPS, 7 HR, 132 AB’s, 5 stolen bases Fielding: P: 268 Games, 444.1 innings, 58 Outs out of 113 chances, 3 Errors, 6 double plays OF: 33 Games, 94 innings, 0 Errors, 28 Outs out of 29 chances dude may not be perfect, but he is at a major league level in all 3 areas of baseball. he can hit, is a reliable pitcher, and can start in the outfield, get you 7 innings without giving up hits on his account, then come on to the mound and get a Hold or Save
This man can possibly be the next big star in Hollywood when his career is over. Possibly, the next Batman...he's tall and athletic & He has a certain charisma for the camera not seen in many actors. I wish him well.
Funny, I can name so many pudgy or scrawny pitchers who are so much better than him, yet he’s barking how “you have to sharpen your clippers or you can’t do it your entire career blah blah”. Lorenzen is a badass specimen by any measure, but Pedro Martinez, Tim Lincecum, Greg Maddux, CC Sabbathia, Bartolo Colon and many more all have HoF careers or cy young awards, 9figures in career earnings and international fame in spite of their scrawny or rotund frames and lack of hitting the gym like a maniac. And I love baseball more because of it. That said, I’ve always been a Lorenzen fan. Dudes just a beast. I always love seeing pitchers hit dingers at wrigley, much less pitchers who legitimately resemble Superman
Really surprised by this video. A lot of these types of videos are corny and they just try to show the player being unnecessarily intense or just show them try to appear to lift the most weight possible. This video is nothing like that. Very informative, very interesting. Great stuff!
He's a righty pitcher so that arm probably gets a lot more work both incidentally and purposefully. Most pitchers have a bigger throwing arm than the other.

Thank god the mlb is finally posting some good content. Getting to know the players is all the fans want.
agreed, before this video I knew nothing about Lorenzen and now I know he's a really cool guy.
I think it’s better to know nothing except what you see on the field.

Lorenzen is the type of guy who will let you go in front of him in line at the grocery store just to be nice.
But you better have his permission beforehand lol!

Tin Man you’re right. He’s big and strong. Just not lean.
Tin Man no ya don’t. And that’s the thing. He can pitch, hit, and play outfield. It takes a heck of an athlete to do that at a pro level.
Shiloh Thompson and that’s what people don’t realize. The dudes just a monster athlete and knows what he needs to do. People shouldn’t be questioning anything he’s doing

idk why everyone questions it; Look at him, he clearly knows what he is doing with his body.

Tyler yes anyone can But usually it’s genetics... some just naturally have it and most don’t... so like me I have to work harder
I played against Michael in high school. Guy was super humble about his talent. Not flashy. Not showing anyone up. Very respectful towards the game and you could tell he was a hard worker. Super glad to see him thriving in the pros!
Cesar Castillo did you hit against him?
Matthew Censullo unfortunately no. He was predominantly a center fielder in high school. In college is where he became more of a pitcher.
Cesar Castillo damn that’s still crazy
Matthew Censullo he also absolutely raked in high school and dominated in college at cal state Fullerton.

@@RemyOrtiz Don't forget greenies (amphetamines). Those have been a staple for athletes and hollywood celebrities since WWII.

Alexandre Woodworth it requires mobility to flexibility to strength to explosiveness to be durable and best in the game you see some bigger guys here and there that has a different skill they exceed at that compensates for some of the other skills and size
of course you need strength. but strength is not the number one priority in baseball. i’d argue it’s not even top 3.

Jordan Ellington some guys are more talented than other. This guy is controlling what he can control. How hard he works.
Michaels goal is throwing over 100 mph. My bet is he will do it very soon with the Reds.
I should have added that I imagine Trevor Bauer will soon be working out with Michael.
I wouldn't say he's ripped, but he's jacked
I checked to make sure this wasn't uploaded on April 1st when he started doing the worm

bruh eric thames?
straw marker true, but he did get injured
Jacked, not ripped
no where near the athleticism as lorenzen
What if the entire spine stretch routine was just something he made up to troll people..
Dudes right arm is at least a 1/4th bigger than his left
He's a righty pitcher so that arm probably gets a lot more work both incidentally and purposefully. Most pitchers have a bigger throwing arm than the other.
This is like he's being trained by Jeff Cavaliere !
2:43 pop off
I feel like a lot of the things in his warm up routine seem lowkey unnecessary
it pays off in the long run, thats why he does a lot of prehab in the beginning.
Jaydee Medina pays off for a pitcher, I don’t feel like any other position is going to need most of the prehab he does
This isn't Tyler O'Neill
Rest in peace kobe
Yandy Diaz is the biggest dude with Eric Thames arms MLB.
he's gonna be a fantastic strength and flexibility coach when his long mlb career is done, that is if he doesn't become an evangelist first!
