Valley would like to invite you (all Junior high and High school players are welcome) to participate in a 7 week class for velocity and pitching mechanical development. The class will consist of 3 workouts a week. First 4 weeks they will do 2 velocity workouts and 1 mechanics day each week. The final 3 weeks they will do 2 mechanical days with bullpens and 1 velocity training. They will be on a strict throwing program to build up pitch count leading into high school baseball season or junior high spring season. Class begins Dec 5th thru Jan 27th. This is over a $650.00 value. Valley Price will be $375.00 for velocity and mechanical pitching development class.

THE VELOCITY IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM IS A COMPLETE PITCHING AND THROWING PROGRAM THAT COVERS EVERYTHING FROM THE FUNCTIONAL WARM-UP, INTENSIVE TUBING EXERCISES, WEIGHTED BALL TRAINING and under load throwing, THE “BACKSHAPING” PITCHING PROGRESSION. BACKSHAPING BEGINS AT THE MOST CRITICAL MOMENT THE RELEASE AND WORKS BACK FROM THERE ONE PIECE AT TIME.

THERE ARE THREE MAJOR MECHANICAL CONSIDERATIONS TO PITCHING: 1. POSTURAL EFFICIENCY HELPS YOU THROW WITH MORE VELOCITY AND WILL GIVE YOU BETTER COMMAND OF THE STRIKE ZONE. MAINTAINING A DYNAMIC AND PRODUCTIVE POSTURE WITH A HIP TO SPINE RELATIONSHIP WITH HEAD AND EYES BEING A CHECK POINT. IF THIS IS DONE WRONG IT CAUSES A DISCONNECT WHICH IS THE NUMBER 1 CAUSE OF INJURY. IT PLAYS HAVOC WITH COMMAND AND CONSISTENCY. IT AFFECTS ENDURANCE AND RECOVERY. IT IS THE MOST COMMON MECHANICAL FLAW IN YOUNG PITCHERS 2. ARM ACTION EFFICIENCY THE ARM NEVER STOPS OR PAUSES EVEN FOR A MILLISECOND. THE ARM WORKS IN TANDEM WITH THE BODY. A PITCHER MUST GET A SCAPULAR LOAD OR PINCH, THEN TORQUE OR GET AS MUCH SEPARATION BETWEEN HIS FRONT HIP AND BACK SHOULDER. HIS ELBOWS MUST BE CLOSING AT RELEASE. 3. NEUROMUSCULAR- EFFICIENCY- TEMPO, RHYTHM, AND SYNCHRONIZATION, IF PUT TOGETHER CORRECTLY THIS CREATES A TIGHT LINKAGE BETWEEN BODY PARTS. TEMPO IS INDIVIDUAL AND UNIQUE; A PITCHER MUST EXPERIMENT TO FIND THEIR PERSONAL IDEAL. MOST PITCHERS TEMPO IS TOO SLOW
