william, we need a little more info. how old are you? what kind of training experience do you have?
Im sixteen 5'8 and weigh 165 lbs.I do 100 push-up everyday and pull-ups.Thats about it.
Well, you will be able to make great gains in the weight room rather quickly since you are a beginner. However, it's not muscle mass you should be worrying about. The amount of mass you have has no effect on your playing performance. Instead you should focus on building strength and power using a variety of training methods. Keep asking questions and searching around and you will find samples of training programs that will accomplish these goals. Even better, if you have someone knowledgeable at your school like a coach or PE teacher, ask them some questions!
well,does anyone know a workout that can make me stronger in the baseball season
William, I have some info and sample programs for beginners on my website--it is all free and you can print out whatever you would like. But please, if you are new to training, try to find someone with some training knowledge that can assist you in making sure that you are doing things properly and safely!
This will never end until someone steps up and makes a sticky...I PMed mods but yeah...

jsorb, it's the same on any forum dealing with training....a newbie signs up, has no experience, and wants everyone to design them a program! i remember creating my own programs thru trial and error when i was a teen!
