@TopVelocity I agree 100%. Pitch counts might be where the research is at - but baseball people know not all pitches are created equally! And absolutely, upper- and lower-body power isn’t produced and absorbed in a vacuum!

Great work as always Tim. This is critical for baseball coaches to understand. One thing that gets overlooked — pitchers who generate more force from the lower half actually REDUCE upper-body load at the same velocity. Whiteside et al. (2016) showed higher GRF correlates with lower throwing arm stress. So load management isn't just about pitch counts and rest days — it's about HOW force is produced. Build the lower half, reduce the chronic arm load. That's the foundation of everything we do at TopVelocity.net 💪

3. Avoid excessive throwing volumes in-season & avoid shutting the arm down completely during off-season. Maintaining arm health through micro-dosed throwing loads & strength training, allows athletes to be prepared to build to moderately-high chronic throwing loads in-season.

2. Avoid spikes in training load, particularly in athletes with scapular dyskinesis and poor external rotational strength. Appropriately-dosed training load will provide the stimulus for the strength and neuromuscular control required to tolerate further training load.

3. Set realistic expectations. Elite athletes are called “elite” for a reason – it’s because they are rare! And world-class 10-year-old athletes are close to non-existent!

When I talk about “read and react” agility drills, I’m not talking about reacting to flashing lights! If you want your athletes to have game-specific anticipation skills, you have to train it! gabbettperformance.com.au/pre-planned-ta…

3. Incorporate game-specific “read and react” drills into the return-to-sport process. If rehab professionals focus solely on pre-planned change of direction factors, then at best, they will only solve half of the agility challenge!

2. Ensure fundamental movement skill (re)training underpins the return to agility process. If athletes cannot move well in closed, pre-planned movements, they will not move well in open, unpredictable tasks involving higher cognitive demands.
