We are excited to announce that, as of fall 2022, all athletes that train with Velo Baseball will be utilizing PULSE Throw wearable workload monitors as a key part of their training plans.
PULSE Throw provides a simple, actionable way to build arm strength and aid recovery by giving you daily workload targets for your throwing program.
The ability to create hip and shoulder separation in combination with producing maximum trunk rotation has been strongly correlated with increased pitch velocity. (1, 4-6, 11-14, 19) Trunk rotation can provide up to 50% of the kinetic energy and momentum for pitching. (18) This separation creates and stores elastic energy in the muscles, tendons and fascial systems through what is called the stretch-shortening cycle (SSC). (5, 19) SSC refers to the muscle action when muscle lengthening is immediately followed by active muscle shortening.
