Off Season Throwing Exercises Arm Strength | High School Baseball Web

Former Member

During the off season I'm going to have my son do some long throwing exercises. Can anyone tell me how long he should be throwing from and for how long he should throw? I'm not sure if 10 throws is sufficient or 50 throws? Any comment would be appreciated.

I think you are going to get a LOT of different perspectives here. You might want to search this site for previous posts. Personally, I would recommend you google Ron Wolforth and Alan Yeager. Those are probably two of the best, current sources for this type information.

My son uses the Yoga, Bands and long toss described by (Alan) Jaeger Sports http://www.jaegersports.com/Training-Programs/.

Also squats, medicine ball throws included in a work out.

Good Luck!
