This is the best video that i’ve found for this, a smart knowledgeable guy talking about this.

[@EdBadal]

Swimming or surfing is also a good sport for arm strength development as well as cardio/breathing and full body workouts.

[@SquishDaBug]

Excellent stuff!! Love these videos

[@TheU_pitching]

I feel like it’s sometimes necessary for elite and older guys to get back all the way to these basics. Thank yall for all the free content

[@SheSaysYesMusic]

Excellent advice, thank you

[@seangraham338]

Good stuff Ben

[@Jeffgy1455]

I'd love to see a video like this for high schoolers.

[@treadathletics]

Most of our content is for advanced high schoolers/college/pro pitchers

[@Jeffgy1455]

@@treadathletics ok, thanks. Btw I really love all of your vids. Thank you for such high quality trading vids. You are much appreciated.

[@user-jv5wq7si7h]

Excellent

[@ryneratliff4473]

First of all thanks for the great advice! It has made me rethink how I coach my son's youth travel team. You mentioned a follow-up video for youth drills but I haven't been able to locate it. Do you have a link to that? Thanks!

[@treadathletics]

Thanks Ryan! We actually have yet to make a drills video. There wasn't a ton of interest at the time, so we put it on the backburner. Will likely revisit eventually!

[@MT-if1si]

If you think about how power is produced in Karate and connect the dots with how athletic pitchers are that come from Japan it all starts to make sense.

[@moronHO]

Thoughts on water Polo (Fall) and Jiu Jitsu (Year Round) for athletic development?

[@twinpennies9639]

I can't find the top drills for youth pitchers video referenced. Was it ever made?

[@treadathletics]

Unfortunately, we have not made the drills video yet. There wasn't a ton of interest at the time.

[@twinpennies9639]

​@treadathletics thanks for letting me know. I coach little league for 8yo and those drills would be invaluable for me

[@user-jv5wq7si7h]

Do you have anything on little league shoulder

[@user-jv5wq7si7h]

Should kids do drills

[@caseystengel3120]

Sure, the 13 year old who throws 85mph may not be thinking about mechanics, but somebody’s doing the thinking for him. That’s why he got brought to Tread. You don’t pitch 85 and throw strikes “naturally.”

[@Aiden-jb9vy]

lol I don’t listen to my coach when he says just throw strikes

[@seanstephenson6242]

87 at 13 WTF? No way!

[@SquishDaBug]

My son just seen a kid pumping 74 at a 11u PG tournament 😂

[@joekeusch5995]

​@SquishDaBug good for him, he is on the right track. Don't get caught up in all of this velocity stuff at such a young age. Plenty of time for it. I picked up my last 5-6 mph at 21-22
