  • This guy's form is correct and his description right on. NO, he shouldn't pinch his shoulder blades together...don't listen to the commenters here, listen to the instructor.

  • This video was awesome. I had never seen the elevated internal and external rotations before but they make a lot of sense.

  • @1dawnashell Absolutely. The entire shoulder is in it's weakest position here. With the shoulder rotated forward, extreme torque is being driven through the Coracohumeral and Inferior Glenohumeral ligaments, not to mention the brachial plexus and tendon structures. The exercise should be done with the humeral head seated into the back of the socket, if you follow his body positioning, you are likely to end up with bursitis, or tendinopathy, the conditions the exercise is designed to prevent.

  • Good Lord, his mechanics suck. He's impinging his supraspinatus and biceps tendon by not having his scapulae set properly!!! Do not do these!!!

  • wack that booty!

  • How many reps should a pitcher do before throwing?

  • good vid - i liked his reminder to breathe & not make fists. I liked the idea of using the uninjured arm for support. One suggestion, slow down while doing exercises, its not about speed but increasing lubrication & strength/range of motion. Moving too fast can causes jerking or not allow the muscles to warm up appropriately. i "liked" this.

  • @pupman2 while throwing however you can pinch your shoulders together, i was stuck with shoulder impengiment as a kid because my coach made me change my mechanics, you have to stay loose and while doing the excersises it is not necessary, while throwing it is good for some pitchers to do some depends on your body type

  • thanks! it really has helped me especially loosening up my arm before pitching

    the question is can i do these a day after pitching (85-100 pitches) or should i give my arm a couple days of rest???
