Quick Pitching Question

Chuck10+ posts

I'm in the balance point ready to throw home, DO I

fall towards the plate and let my weight take me straight to the catcher

or

do i push off with the back leg?

lately ive just been leaning towards the plate and that helps me get my weight over my front leg

You should be stepping forward, trying to be about 60/40, back/front, step forward, and then fall towards the pitcher, and when you cant go any further forward, your hips will open and whip your arm around (I won't go into a full discussion on pitching mechanics). I hope that answered you question.
