Beginner training plan
Your first lessonMy first lesson is all about taking inventory of the player as they currently are.  I like to watch them through and throw a basic pitches tearing warm up if they are old enough and advanced enough, we will throw a flat ground or a short bullpen and video of the mechanics then I will assess what we need to work on first and foremost. After that, we’ll do some drill work and explain the basic theories of pitching mechanics and velocity. I’ll give some drills for home and lay out a game plan for our path forward together.
Lesson 11+At this point, you are just polishing the diamond.
Lesson 4-10For the same person and lessons four through 10 we would continue with tunnel work and refining spin. By this point, we would be throwing live pens, either simulated or with a stand in and a few sections of different lessons we would practice Max effort mechanics the total time off the mound will shorten as well because we will focus on strength and conditioning both the arm and the body towards the end of practices.
Lesson 2-3In this lesson, we continue to build off of our foundation. This means the intensity and depth of this lesson will vary by age and skill level as an example of someone who has very sound mechanics and is working on tunneling, fastball, sinker, and change up, we would spend time warming up with drills, but a majority of our focus would be off the mound. Depending on the facility, there would be a minimum of videotaping and all the way up to a rap Soto for spin analysis in the lessons we would throw a high volume at a low intensity, focusing on proper mechanics and fluidity, but never stressing or straining the arm.
Youth players
Working with kidsWith kids, we throw more often and focus more on basics. Fast two seem and change up. I like to drill in the basics and give things that will stay with them through their whole career. Most importantly, I teach the mental side of pitching, which I believe is very undervalued at any stage, but especially at the beginning.
Working with teenagersThe same as true for teenagers, but we will focus a little more on strengthening the arm through plyometrics and weighted baseballs. And the teenage group there is more focus on velocity while maintaining proper basic pitching mechanics again a major emphasis will be on the mental side of pitching, and we will take a step further into strategy with things like pitch tunneling.
