Frequently Asked Questions
1. What determines a pitcher’s velocity?
Answer: Arm and hand speed determine velocity,
not necessarily size. That is why you will see a young pitcher,
four feet six inches tall, weighing,
seventy-five
pounds throwing the ball fifty-six
miles
an hour while another player, same
age but
five feet tall, weighing one hundred
pounds,
throwing the ball fifty-two miles an
hour. To throw the ball sixty miles an hour the
hand must be traveling sixty miles
an hour
at release point.

2. What is the “pitching line?”
Answer: The pitching line is an imaginary
line that runs from home plate out through the pitching rubber and
on out to second base. It is on this line that a pitcher should work from;
that is, the ball of his posting foot (back foot) is always on this
line as well as the ball of his stride foot when he comes out to landing
The Pitching line is fully illustrated in
"The Pitching Master"

3. What is “axis of hip rotation?”
Answer: The axis of hip rotation is the number
of degrees the lead hip travels from the rocker step to the balance
point.

4. Does throwing weighted baseballs increase
a pitcher’s velocity?
Answer: Throwing weighted baseballs on a
regular basis has increased velocity in pitchers, however, there
is no long-term study to support the safety of this technique.
Are you destroying your pitchers arm, shoulder,
career, or life?

5. What is “vortex of power?”
Answer: Vortex of power is a contained whirling
explosion of force
that should be created from the acceleration
point to the release point.
Do you know how to generate this kind of
power?
Order Now and you will !
6. Should a pitcher push off the pitching rubber?
Answer: No! At this point of the pitching phase the dynamics
change from linear to rotational, therefore,
the posting (back) foot must roll-over and
rotate off the rubber. This, in turn, rotates the posting knee in,
which helps to explode the back hip outward,
causing a power vortex in the rotational
force of the throwing arm.

7. What part of the stride foot does the pitcher
land on at landing?
Answer: The pitcher should always land on the inside
ball of the stride (front) foot when he comes
out to landing.

8. How does a pitcher become more accurate?
Answer: Accuracy is achieved by practicing
good dynamic structure & mechanics
on
a regular basis, year-round.
Your up by one in the last inning, bases
loaded, the count - 3-1-1
How confident are you?
9. How long does it take to build mechanics
into the
“muscle memory?”
Answer: Generally three to five months, depending
on the amount and length of practice.

mechanically sound and produces good
balance.

11. Where should the pitcher's weight be on the
rocker step?
Answer: It should be a short diagonal step
back with the weight momentarily on the ball
of the rocker foot.
