Two Ways to Increase your Velocity this Fall...

Face it, we all want velocity...

and in the grand scheme of things if you work on improving your foundation your velocity should improve as well! So, in actuality, there is nothing wrong with putting a little extra focus on Velocity this Fall. 

Insert Isometrics and Long Toss; of course I can add several more items to this list but these two things will absolutely help you this Fall so they stay at the top of my list.

Isometrics - Athletic and Pitching Isometrics need to be in your strength training program this Fall. Becoming stronger in the positions of your pitching motion that matter the most will improve your foundation of mechanics. Think of your take-off, k and finish here. Not only should you be doing pitching isometrics but also general athletic isometrics to make sure your body is ready to be as powerful and as explosive that you want it to be. 

Long Toss - this is a year-round thing for softball pitchers but should be tailored appropriately for the season you are in. In the Fall we can go further and for more reps. We are training similar to the weight room with a progressive overload approach. Each week try to increase by a couple reps and increase the distance. 

Both of these training methods can be easily programmed into your routine this Fall but I highly recommend having a structured and proven plan to follow. 

The good news is ---> I've got two incredible apps to offer you so you can follow structured programs and plans. The Paisleys Pitching App will give you access to everything PITCHING. That's bullpens, long toss programs, spin pitches, mechanics, mental training on the rubber and more. Use this app year-round for all of your pitching needs.

The second app that pairs seamlessly with the Paisleys Pitching app is The 32 Approach Softball Academy! This app is going to have your strength workouts from Summers Method, Softball Skills from Sierra Romero and now pitching training from me! 

This is a Win-Win for girls of all ages. Check out the Apps here;
