Day 2: Day After Throwing
Day 2: Day After Throwing
This should be an intense workout day to help your arm recover and start preparing for your next day of pitching competition.
Day After Workouts Should Include:
-Sprints
-Light Resistance Shoulder Exercises
-Lower Body and Core Exercises (See list of exercises on next page). Do not need Jaeger bands to complete these.
Workouts should simulate pitching and require fast-twitch movements. Long distance running develops slow twitch muscles, which we do not want to develop as baseball players or pitchers.
Every Minute on the Minute Workout (EMOM):
-At the start of every minute complete a set of exercises. Rest until the start of the next minute. Begin next set of exercises at the start of the next minute.
Example: 10 Minute EMOM with Following Exercises
15 Yard Sprint, 10 Sit-Ups, 15 Yard Sprint, 5 Jump Squats, 15 Yard Sprint, 5 Push-Ups
As Many Rounds As Possible Workout (AMRAP):
-Complete as many rounds of the circuit workout in a given time. When the time ends the workout ends. There are no rest periods. Do not sacrifice the quality of each rep. Respect the Rep!
Example: 10 Minute AMRAP with Following Exercises
6 Forward Lunges, 10 Russian Twists, 10 Rows, 5 Push-Ups, 10 Med-Ball Throws
