What are ways to throw faster/ gain velocity?

Question

except for long toss---14 years old, hits 80-82 on a good day, but needs to get a little faster for an upcoming showcase.

Answer 1

your are throwing from 54 feet arent you if so then throw from 60 '6 inches and be a man and tell people that you cant throw higher than 70 because thats probally what you are gonna get so get used to throwin from major league distances and if you are tellin the truth then do plylometrics or rubber band work or somethin

Answer 2

your lying dude. No 14 yo can throw 80. However..... If by some miracle you can, Your throwing fast enough. But dont BS us, we hate it.

Answer 3

Work on strengthening your shoulder muscles with weights and/or resistance bands and also strenghten your legs, especially the leg you push off the pitching mound with  

Answer 4

he's not lying, my daughter just turned 12 and pitches in fastpitch softball and she pitches 50-52mph,  

to answer the question he should practice at least 50 pitches 3 times a week,  its all about repetitve body mechanics

Answer 5

Answer 6
