Reply to "how hard should i be throwing?"

stuff804,

Of the 4 "components" of pitching, Velocity is fourth, after Mechanics, Location and Movement. Even more to the point, the ability to effectively change velocity is more valuable than sheer velocity.

Upon properly developing the first three components, increased velocity can be generated by a baseball-specific strength and conditioning program combined with Specific Resistance Training involving the use of weighted baseballs.

Regards,
Steve
