Building a Program
My name is Peyton McLouth and I am offering training to local pitchers in the area. I am willing to work with anyone 9-18 years old in the Athena, Weston, Helix, Adams, and Tollgate area. I also prefer to work with two kids at a time, and for parents to be there. I was a pitcher for my entire career and love to share my knowledge with the kids. When you book please leave your name, e-mail, and a phone number so I can get in contact with you. Bring a friend or parent along if possible. Looking forward to improving our baseball program as a whole.
The Method:
Accuracy:
Our goal as pitchers is to first throw the ball where we want it. I use a series exercises and mental cues to help players pinpoint where they throw and master picking spots. This gives us the ability to reduce walks and our teammates the chance to help us out.
Health:
We start with keeping the arm healthy. Our health is what leads to strength. When we consistently work towards no pain, we can push the exercises further for power. I use small weights for the shoulders, leg work, and yoga techniques to develop longevity and power.
Mental Strength and Control:
Pitching is more mental than anything. We teach our players about internal dialogue. They learn how to talk to themselves. We teach them to work through their struggles and set their minds on success through small physical adjustments and visualization. This is how we develop players who can handle defeat and still come back to perform.
Pitch Design:
We coach many different arm-slot styles and throwing paths. Every pitcher throws different stuff. Depending on how your kid throws, we can design a set up for anywhere between 2 and 6 pitches.
Repetition:
The goal is to throw as much as possible and keep our arms working throughout the year. We put an emphasis on throwing often. Learning to throw smooth and learn the movements.
Home or Away…
