Pitching Aids


Question
Hi,
  Can weighted balls actually help increase velocity?
  I've seen in a magazine and on the internet a Roger Clemens "thing".

This is the site where I found it. Would this item actually increase velocity?

Thanks, Ray


Answer
Ray,

We have used weighted balls with success in the past.  The thing about a throwing program is that it must be controlled and consistent.  You have to include running, stretching, strengthening and throwing to see velocity improve.  Even with a great program, some pitchers are not genetically programmed to throw with high velocity.
