Ok i got a Question

Good question. There are different aspects of developing a strong arm ---- and recovery is one of those aspects. Some coaches prefer to shut down their pitchers completely in the off season. A lot depends on how much they pitched during their season. I know one of my son’s college coaches did not allow his pitchers (ones that threw a lot during the season) to play in the college summer leagues. My son was a P/C and broke his finger (while catching) on his throwing hand during the last series of the regular season. This forced him to completely shut down his throwing all fall and winter. The following spring he said his arm felt better than it had ever felt in all the years he had played. While long toss and throwing during the off season can be helpful to those that haven’t pitched much during the season, shutting down completely can also help those that have “punished” their arm during the season.

Rest is best. Your body will heal itself with rest. During this time it would be a good idea to work on your strength and flexibility so when late January rolls around, you'll be ready to go.

Throwing any type of ball over-hand is not a normal motion for your shoulder. Since you have probably been playing or practicing almost everyday since Feb., what's wrong with a little time off from that activity????

so do you think catchers abuse there how just cause they throw just as many times as a picther just not as hard ..cause i catch and i want to comeback better than ever

but i have had some rest cause i played football and just started throwing this week

If you have already made up your mind, don't ask the question, BB13.

Some downtime is good for the arm.

If you have already had that downtime, fine.

You do want to ramp up that arm so that when baseball practice begins you are in top form and ready to go. I've seen too many kids come up with sore arms during the first week of practice because they didn't get back in shape in time.

After playing football the body rest question is more than just the arm---your entire body needs to recover

but i have to play to get ready ...i want to compete at the next level
