2022 Summer LPT

Want to take your summer development to the next level? Want to go back to campus feeling confident and prepared to compete? Want to learn from an experienced staff that strives for you to be better every single day? This comprehensive training program is focused on helping each athlete create or enhance their individual unique routine, move more efficiently, create better movement patterns, and prepare the athlete physically & mentally to compete for their respective program. Athletes will accomplish this by completing a thorough evaluation of their movement patterns, pain assessment, and slow-motion video analysis of their pitching mechanics. From there each athlete will follow an all-inclusive 8-week long comprehensive throwing and arm care program to help them prepare for their return to campus in the fall. Along with improving overall mechanical efficiency, arm strength, athleticism and throwing capability, athletes will follow this all-inclusive throwing program with individualized weighted ball and throwing drills for each athlete, medicine ball drills, movement quality exercises and arm care recovery protocols tailored to their personal developmental goals and aspirations. 

With each session, athletes will be taken through a complete dynamic warmup and full body mobility routine to prepare their bodies to move explosively and athletically with all throwing sessions concluding with arm care recovery protocols and sport-specific performance training. Each athlete will have the opportunity to throw supervised bullpens with Rapsodo Pitching 2.0 & weekly slow-motion video feedback while working to improve pitch design, sequencing, overall command, and complete overall confidence. Research has shown that weighted balls are effective in gaining velocity and creating efficient movements, and there’s no better environment to train in then with our Pitching Coach Staff who have seen great success with pitchers who have completed these weighted ball programs. From high intensity bullpens to max velocity pulldowns to pitch design, this program will put you on your path to becoming the best overall pitcher you can be.
