Hi ridgePO24,

Here, are a few tips to help you start throwing harder:

1. Practice long toss. This will develop arm strength which will translate into faster speeds.

2. Start a weight training program for pitchers. It should focus on all core muscles but special emphasis on legs, triceps and forearms.

3. Practice with weighted baseballs (some lighter and heavier than a standard ball). The plyometric effect will help increase your pitching speed.

4. Get lessons on proper mechanics. I quality instructor can fine tune your pitching delivery and possibly add more speed to your fastball.

Hope this helps,
Jack Elliott.
