Whats a good way to get your velocity up for pitching and good excercises to keep your shoulder strong

Question

i can throw in the high 60's low 70's and i want to increase my speed im a freshman in high school going into my sophmore year

Answer 1

hey im a catcher and i pitched a little. i found catching really was an advantage cause i have big legs to help increase my velocity. but the key to throwing fast is big legs and a good arm. u can use push ups.  i have the perfect push ups those would be my main recomendation. and if u'd like i have those waited baseballs those help a lot too. i throw for a little bit everyday with them and do certain exercises.

Answer 2

shoulder lifts and I like to use elastic bands to workout pitching motions and do some lifts with your lower body, pitching is a lot more lower body than you'd think.

Answer 3

do fifty push-ups when you rise in the morning.do fifty in the evening before you go to bed.this will make your shoulders and arms strong.i do them everyday in the morning and evening.push-ups also make your chest bigger and stronger.push-ups just work wonders for the upper body.they will build the tricep muscle good.get you some 10 to 20 pound dumbells to help build the bicep muscle.if you aren't use to doing push-ups, you will not like them at first,but if you stick with them you will enjoy them.especially when you see the results.if you cant do fifty at one time,break them down,but make sure however you do them,each time equals fifty.once you can do fifty at one time,you will be a full member of the push-up club.unlike weights,you can do push-ups everyday and they wont hurt you.weight lifting everday is not healthy for the body. i use to be a pitcher in high school.remeber to build your legs also.strong legs for a pitcher is very important.leg squats,with or without weights are good.if you do these things,your velocity will be awesome!.one more piece of advise.always make sure you eat good when you are playing sports.good luck.
