Increasing Pitching Velocity

This is not an easy task. It takes a good understanding of velocity mechanics and the will to work and train hard and smart. If you are looking for a quick fix then you are wasting your time. I spent five years of my career only working on reaching my velocity goal of 93 mph and it was the hardest thing I have ever done. If increasing velocity was easy then the web would not be full of people claiming to have the secrets to its success. If you are going to reach your velocity goals it will be by learning how to become more total body in your pitching delivery and by developing more fast twitch muscle fibers with a good strength and conditioning program.

The problem with most pitching coaches or strength and conditioning coaches claiming that they have the program to help you increase velocity is that these programs lack a major phase in the process. This phase is adapting your new fast twitch muscle fiber that you developed in the weight room and on the field into your pitching delivery. It is not an easy job to take your strength gains from the weight room and apply them into your pitching delivery. Just like it would almost be impossible to teach an Olympic lifter, who has never pitched, how to throw 90 mph. This is also why most baseball coaches tell you to stop wasting your time in the weight room, this is because they do not understand how it correlates to pitching. The only program that I have ever found to how this keystone to a legitimate Velocity Enhancement program is the Ace Pitcher Handbook. This is because I spent my career working with very talented coaches and trainers to develop the missing link.

If you are determined to find the answer to your question here on How to increase pitching velocity and you will stop at nothing to find the answer then I promise you the answer is here in the Ace Pitcher Handbook. I have sold over 10,000 copies thus far and have received countless testimonies praising its success. Here is the latest testimony from a excited parent that I received yesterday.

“Reed has hit 90 mph for the first time this May. These velocity drills are working. The Ace Pitcher Handbook has been the answer!”

Reed bought the Ace Pitcher Handbook 6 months ago and followed up with me on a weekly basis during the program. He went from 86 mph to 90 mph by the end of the program.

There is no reason that Reed’s success and the countless others who have benefited from the Ace Pitcher Handbook could be yours as well. If you are determined the I suggest you purchase the Ace Pitcher Handbook TODAY!

The products listed below must be taken with a balanced diet. They MUST NOT be taken as a meal replacement. Any meal replacement supplement must be taken between your three main meals, not as a replacement of those meals. Fast twitch muscle fibers equal velocity and to develop more fast twitch muscle fibers you must take in more nutritional calories to support this development. These calories must consist of protein, complex carbohydrates and fatty acids; along with vitamins and minerals.

I would avoid using proprietary supplement blends. These products are more full of hype than actual benefits. They are also very expensive. The reason that they label them as proprietary blends and do not show you the actually ingredients is because if they did, then you would just go out and buy the ingredients for a lot cheaper price. The only over the counter supplements that actually enhance performance are stimulants like energy drinks. These supplements can be very dangerous because of the stress it puts on your cardiovascular system and most of them are banned in competitive play. I would avoid using these supplements all together because they only have a short term effect and can hurt you in the long run. You will see better results from good food and a fast twitch muscle fiber focused training regime.

If you are going to spend your money on buying supplements then I recommend you purchase a natural protein, a complete multi-vitamin, an alkaline based supplement, mega 3 fatty acid and a powerful antioxidant. Here is a list with links to purchase these products.

* Take the recommended dosages listed on the back of the products.

* Purchase the Ace Pitcher Handbook to start your velocity based training regime!

Protein

The best whey protein on the shelf today is Optimum Nutrition – 100% Whey Gold Standard Natural Protein. It has no artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners and still tastes great! Select the picture or here and scroll down to the bottom of the page and purchase the Natural chocolate, vanilla or strawberry. There isn’t any supplement more powerful to support fast twitch muscle fiber development better than the Gold Standard!

Multi-Vitamin

A multi-vitamin is also an essential supplement that is key to supporting new muscle development. This complete Nutrient Optimization System will not only support new development but also increase your energy levels. Select the picture or here to purchase a bottle.

Alkaline Supplement

The best alkaline supplement on the market is Juice Plus. This will add to your vitamin intake and also help promote a more alkaline system. This is critical for recovery especially after an exercise or game. Select the image here to purchase or go to www.StartJuicingNow.com.

Omega 3

Omega 3 is important for brain function and is also a good anti-inflammatory supplement. This isn’t as powerful as Advil but it is a lot better for your body. Taking Omega 3 daily will help promote less inflammation in your body. This will speed recovery. Select the image or select here to purchase this bottle.

Antioxidants

Antioxidants are critical for recovery because they destroy free radicals in your system that wreak havoc on your body after you workout or perform. To fight this damage you must take antioxidants to help your body cleanse itself so it can rebuild. Select the image or select here to purchase this product.

Stacking Grape Seed Extract or a Super Antioxidant with vitamin C is a powerful way to fight free radicals. I recommend that if you are going to buy the vitamin C that you add the Grape Seed Extract or the Super Antioxidant. Select the image to purchase.

There is a lot of crap out there on the market. If you want to try supplements outside of these recommendations I highly recommend that you educate yourself or talk to someone who is educated about nutrition before you start spending your money!

The only reason I was able to play Professional Baseball after a major rotator cuff tear in my first college appearance was because of one thing, Velocity. For five years all I focused on was getting back to my velocity before the surgery, which was about 86mph and then adding as much more as possible. I never expected that I would soon reach 94 mph. This is why I started this website and also started the Guerilla Baseball Academy in Louisiana.

The biggest question I get is, how did I gain so much velocity after surgery?

Well, during those five years of starting over with the skill of pitching, I obsessively read ever book I could find on strength and conditioning and pitching mechanics. This helped put me headed in the right direction and then I started training with Kurt Hester who was the strength and conditioning coach at LSU during the 90′s when they were called “Gorilla Ball.” Kurt changed my career.

Kurt put 35 pounds of fast twitch muscle fiber on my body through Olympic lifting and plyometric training. After one year of his program I was throwing 90 mph. At this point I didn’t have much time left in my career so I decided to go to California and tryout for the Golden League. This is an independent minor league organization. I hit 91mph in the tryout and was drafted in the first round. I then meet one of Tom House’s certified pitching coaches Mike Layseca and he taught me about hip to shoulder separation, which I had none. When I started my season in San Diego, one month into it as my mechanics got better, I topped out at 94mph. At this point in my career I felt complete. I had made it to Pro Ball and beat the odds against me. I also got to play with a childhood ideal, Jose Canseco.

I would have never made it to the professional level without learning all of the secrets to Velocity. I would have never increased my velocity from 86-94mph without this knowledge and hard work. This is why I created this website and put together the Ace Pitcher Handbook. You are not going to find this type of information in books or websites that are created by athletes who didn’t overcome the impossible to achieve the success that they claim to have had. Those athletes are just giving you or selling you information that helped them to maintain what talent God gave them. Therefore if you are an athlete who is trying to overcome the impossible then you are wastering your time and money learning from those nature athletes. Even if they label themselves as All American or Major League.

If “YOU WANT TO GO PRO” then you must learn from those who made it to the professional levels and came from a similar background as you!
