Pretty simple for me:
:
You get your meat from the meat market, your bread from the bakery.
Get a proper strength and conditioning from an expert in the field who has some experience training baseball athletes, pitching instruction from a pitching instructor who you develop trust in, you also have throwing programs like Jaeger, Wolforth, drivelinebaseball, etc. Once you are at the college level and beyond most athletes have been exposed to a number of different approaches and develop a routine based on their personal needs. Mobility, not mentioned previously discussed here is also huge, again depending on the athlete. Yoga, Pilates, and mobilitywod.com, are places to get this aspect. As far as pitching instruction I would say the best my son has used is his college coach who never pitched beyond college, he had coaches who had long "big league" bios that were worthless, Kyle Boddy never played past HS, the best strength and conditioning coach he has used never played baseball, but will be the first GymJones affiliate in Ca shortly.So while a resume is important comfort and trust with the coach, instructor, is paramount. Since this site is for HS athletes working their way through the process many of us stick around to help them. TPM and others are mostly parents who have had their kids work through the process so, she, and many others stick around to help them. Discussions like these are just many of the very enlightening ones that happen here that should help those working through the process.
Wishing all of the pitchers out there a happy and successful 2015.
