A baseball pitcher puts incredible stress on his pitching arm. With focused efforts to correct mechanical flaws, stress on the pitching arm can be relieved. 

Shoulder Pain:
Does your son have shoulder pain associated with pitching?  Pain in the front of the shoulder is the most common stress point and develops when the arm  drags behind the shoulder line.  Pain in the back of the shoulder develops when the arm flies out--away from the body--causing the arm to fly across the body while finishing towards the plate.  With this movement, its nearly impossible to have a consistant release point.

 

Elbow Pain:
The most common elbow pain occurs at the top of the elbow where the biceps tendon attaches to the ulna.  To relieve this forearm fly out, a pitcher can gain strength by allowing the arm to move to a power position.

 

 

About Me:
Growing up in a small town of 15 people in Greencreek, Idaho, I was never exposed to proper baseball fundamentals.  Thanks to multiple college experiences and training at top-notch facilities, I was able to develop proper baseball fundamentals. 

Today, I have chosen to blend two of my passions:  playing baseball and developing kids to their full potential-physically and mentally.   Hitters Edge is the perfect place for me to work with young people and their parents as all seek success. 

Throughout my baseball career, I have lived by the motto, "no one can stop you from succeeding, but yourself."  It's worked for me.  I look forward to sharing more with you.
