Super proud of this 10u pitcher! She worked her tail off this week during her private session and hit a new PR of 46mph 💯

In August, she was throwing 35-37mph with a 38mph PR. In November, she was throwing 38-39mph with a 41mph PR. This week, she hit 46mph and was consistently 44-45mph 😍🥎💯🔥

Power comes from the ground up! This girl has been working on her lower body generating power and it’s showing tremendously in her progress 💯💯💯

Generate More Speed Through Better Movement

Velocity doesn't begin with the arm—it starts with the lower body. Learning to properly hinge at the hips allows pitchers to load their glutes, create explosive energy, and transfer that force efficiently into the arm circle. When body sequencing improves, arm speed naturally follows. Coach D's 6-Week Velocity Program teaches pitchers how to develop hip-generated arm speed, improve movement efficiency, and increase velocity through proven drills and progressive training. Proper hip hinging is a foundational athletic movement that improves power production and efficient force transfer.
