"You've just found the most powerful yet simple baseball pitching improvement tool on Earth...
Explosive Pitching Instructional DVD's!"

The only pitching program backed up by new sports science research which proves why velocity comes from explosive total-body arm-whipping mechanics"...rather than from arm strength.

Here's what the Philadelphia Daily News says about Dick Mills program...

"Mills spent years studying the deliveries of Hall of Fame pitchers dating to grainy film from the Deadball Era. He found that length of stride and acceleration through the delivery was a common denominator in what he calls "Hall of Fame delivery."

"A pitching style that could prevent injuries."

Bill Conlin, Philadelphia Daily News Columnist, May 6, 2008

• Are you frustrated about your son's pitching velocity and control or concerned about his risk of an arm injury?
• Are you fearful that you might make the wrong decision on whose pitching advice to follow because coaches today don't seem to making sense...or producing good results?
• Or you feel bad because you don't know enough about pitching to help him!

...you'll learn why long toss, pitching drills, weighted balls, flat ground throwing, weight lifting or stretching don't improve performance but instead new researched evidence proves they disrupt mechanics, reduce velocity and multiply arm injuries.

"My 14 year old son's velocity jumped 12 mph, his control improved dramatically and his arm pain vanished. For the first time since he had been pitching, he finally understands what he is doing…what causes the ball to do what it does and how his body functions to be effective…Now that's priceless."

From Dick Mills, former Red Sox pitcher
Scottsdale, AZ

Dear Friend and Fellow Pitching Enthusiast,

Are you frustrated with today's pitching instruction because it doesn't seem to be working, costs too much, and sometimes just doesn't even make sense?

Or you wish there was a simple way to teach pitching all backed up by sports science research that could help parents with no baseball experience…even single Moms help their sons reach the next level.

Are you ready to finally learn why most pitching instruction today is not working…why pitchers are still struggling to improve velocity and control while paying $50-75 per hour for lessons with former professional pitchers who can't tell you why your son can't throw harder ? And why so many youth and high school pitchers are getting arm injuries at an alarming rate?

My name is Dick Mills. I am a former pitcher with the Boston Red Sox organization. I was once a #2 draft pick. I was on the big league roster three times. If you can still find one, my Topps Rookie Card came out in 1971. I have been a pitching instructor my entire adult life.

I am about to explain to you why this letter could be the most important information on pitching you will ever read.

In 2004, after being a pitching instructor nearly my entire adult life, I broke away from the pitching establishment because I learned some new information that I had never heard before that is all backed up by the latest sports science research and that not 1 coach in 100 fully understands. This new information, which I have been teaching now for the past four years is almost the exact opposite of what most pitching coaches and instructors are teaching. But it is all backed up with real sports science research rather than the beliefs of most pitching instructors. And our students and clients are discovering is the missing link to better velocity and control with not as much as a sore arm let alone an injury.

My web site has been online since August of 1996. As of September 1, 2007 we have helped 19,227 clients…pitchers from Little League to pro baseball and have helped hundreds get college scholarships. And if you take the time to read this letter you will learn many of the reasons why pitchers today are not successful. They simply are getting poor advice from their coaches and even from professional instructors. And in this letter I will prove it to you.

Top College Pitcher Loses 5-7 mph
Using Towel Drill Following Top Instructor's Advice

Before I tell you how I can help you help your son become a much better pitcher, I want you to listen to a true story about one of our customers and how bad coaching advice can actually ruin a boy's chances of reaching his peak potential. This may have cost this boy millions of dollars.

How would you feel if your son was ranked as one of the top 35 college players in the country going into his junior year of college pretty much assured he'd get drafted at least by the second or third round and have that dream die because an instructor gave him some very bad advice and it reduced his velocity 7 mph? That actually happened to one of my customers, a 6'3" 195 lb lefty, who had been on our program since his sophomore year of high school. Out of high school he was throwing 86-88 mph and as a college sophomore he was consistently throwing 89-91 mph. He got a scholarship to one of the premium Division 1 colleges in the nation.

Here's what happened. He wanted to see if he could add another 2-3 mph on his fastball so he set up some lessons with a well known instructor who didn't understand an important element of how the pitcher's body produces velocity. The instructor had this pitcher work on trying to produce more velocity "out in front" using a "towel drill" so he would be closer to the plate at ball release. This sounds good in theory but it misses one very important element of pitching mechanics—the trunk must turn first before it flexes forward. This instructor didn't understand that.

When a pitcher focuses only on arm extension his weight transfer is very poor so his trunk flexes forward before it rotates and that kills arm speed and adds stress. This cost him 7 mph on his fastball and instead of getting drafted in the second or third round…he went in the 23 rd. Those lessons with that misinformed instructor cost this boy in the neighborhood of $750,000 to a million in bonus money and a lot of heartache for he and his family.

Or have you heard of another hyped up drill that is being called "scapula loading." This too is supposed to boost velocity quickly by changing a pitcher's arm action…something you had better be very careful messing with. However, in my opinion this too will prove to be another disaster for pitchers who are looking for magic bullets rather than sensible instruction that focuses on "how to use the elastic energy of the body" to help create more arm speed. So the body does the work to speed up the arm while actually reducing stress and arm injury.

Here is the one secret to pitching velocity that you must learn if you ever hope to see him reach his full potential.

Pitching velocity is the result of how explosively the lower body moves from the back leg to the front leg while stretching out like a huge rubber band into a long stride while getting the upper body and arm in the right position to throw.

The single biggest reason that more high school and college pitchers never reach their full potential is because they waste their time doing activities that will never produce the promised results of better velocity or control. They are taught to believe that more arm strength will produce more velocity. This is wrong!

If you are interested in the truth about how to help your son reach the next level as a pitcher…without any hyped up magic bullets such as weighted baseballs, doing endless long toss or some special velocity drill, then I can show you how to smooth out and make a couple of changes in his mechanics and his overall practice routine that will end your frustration about what he should do to improve…and improve a lot quicker than you thought possible. But you must read every word of this letter.

If you think magic bullets are the answer for producing more velocity then you should ask yourself why there are no magic bullets in other sports. It's simple. Because magic bullets are a myth. They are pure hype. And if you buy into them you will regret it because you son can never get back wasted time.

The only thing that is going to help your son improve his velocity is to help him build an explosive delivery by using his lower body to build a long stride.

The 7 BIG PITCHING MISTAKES That Kill Most Little League Pitcher's Velocity And Control…

Yet They're Still Being Taught Everyday By Well Meaning Coaches,
High Paid Instructors And Even Parents…

Who All Know Just Enough About Pitching
To Be Dangerous"

I want to explain why so many Little League pitchers don't ever reach their full potential and why most never get to pitch at the high school level. The reason is clear—they simply get such poor instruction from Little League coaches and from private instructors…or even from parents who are doing their best but may know just enough to be dangerous. Some of these private instructors even played college and pro baseball.

I know it's hard to believe but it's true…they never really learned how to teach proper pitching mechanics even though they may have been outstanding pitchers themselves. Keep in mind, being able to pitch at a high level doesn't mean you can teach pitching…any more than being a tour golfer makes you a good golf teacher.

If you want your son to succeed and have fun pitching he must learn correct mechanics right now…waiting too long or getting the wrong instruction could ruin his chances of playing in high school…Don't make a $2500-$5000 mistake that you will regret later

What I am about to tell you may be the single most important reason why your son, like so many other pitchers may never reach his full potential as he moves forward as a pitcher and play at the high school or college levels…or who knows pro ball.

And here it is: "You learn what you practice." This means that if your son continues to throw with improper mechanics that those mechanical faults can easily get ingrained in his body and mind. And trying to get rid of a mechanical fault that is ingrained could require as much as 50-60 hours of practice if you know what you are doing or as much as $2,000-$3,000 if you hire the best instructor.

Many parents believe incorrectly that if their son is pitching in Little League that they can wait to get him instruction later on…thinking that youth or high school coaches will be able to help him or turn him around. Nothing could be further from the truth. There is very little good instruction as you move up in baseball. Coaches may know hitting but even the good high school coaches will tell you that they do not know pitching mechanics.

Sports science has proven that between 9 and 13 is when kids learn movement skills so they are locked in. That is a fairly short window of opportunity.

One Little League Mom, while her husband was away in the Navy on an aircraft carrier, helped her son in the span of just two months improve his fastball from 53 mph to 61 mph just by making some changes using her camcorder as her guide.

Imagine if you could learn how to help your son jump his velocity 6-12 mph by next spring because you finally learned what every high velocity pitcher understands and that is how to use the lower body to deliver the arm like a slingshot.

With proper instruction on how to be explosive, we believe thousands of high school and college pitchers can do what this 16 year old did just by understanding how to build forward momentum into a long stride.

So when is the best time to help your son? Right now. If you wait until next season you won't be able to make a dent in helping him develop better mechanics. So what you see right now is what you will get next year and if his mechanics are poor now he will only ingrain poor mechanics. So he could actually get worse next year.

Also, remember your son won't have much fun pitching unless he can throw strikes. Throwing strikes and boosting velocity are all a function of good mechanics…and practicing properly.

Allow me to clear up something for you real fast: What I have for boosting a Little League pitchers overall performance will work whether you have some baseball background or whether you are totally raw…and can't throw a baseball ten feet. I make it that easy to understand…but I explain in detail the "why" of it all. So you fully understand.

So I am going to teach you everything you need to know. No matter where you're at right now. And believe me this can be life changing stuff for your son and for the whole family. But first listen to this….

Why Most Little League Pitchers
Will Never Pitch At The High School Level

Here's a short list of some of the misinformation that you will hear from coaches or parents at Little League games. Or from your son's private instructor…at baseball schools, clinics, on videos, in,books or online:


1. Bend your back to bring the ball down in the strike zone: This makes no sense either since bending the back or flexing the trunk happens after ball release. Flexing the trunk forward is the result of good mechanics but does not have any impact on bringing the ball down in the strike zone. What brings the ball down is getting the pitcher into the correct throwing position consistently. Nothing else will work.

2. Throw over the top: This tells the pitcher to get his arm up high where he will release the ball closer to the 12 o'clock position. And yet, how many big league pitchers do you see "throwing over the top" anymore. Few. The fact is that what is comfortable for most pitchers is to throw from a 3/4 arm position. This means that if you picture a large clock behind the pitcher, a right-handed pitcher will release the ball anywhere from about 10 o'clock to 11 o'clock. Some will be lower like Pedro Martinez or Randy Johnson or even Nolan Ryan. Throwing over the top has been proven to be more stressful on the throwing shoulder.
You will notice kids trying to do this by the extreme leaning over where the head is tilted to one side. It's tough to throw strikes like that.

3. Change the pitcher's release point: When a pitcher is having control problems you will hear things like "release the ball sooner" or "fix your release point." This indicates that the pitcher has control of the position of his arm by simply adjusting his arm. This is true only if he had good overall body mechanics. Remember this—the body delivers the arm therefore it is the position of the pitcher's body upon landing that is most important. You can't adjust "release point" by adjusting the position of the arm. You instead adjust how the pitcher gets to the landing position consistently. That not only improves control but also velocity. You change the release point after the pitcher is in the correct throwing position at landing…not before.

4. Shorten or lengthen his stride: If you ever hear a coach tell the pitcher to shorten his stride then that should be a red flag that this coach is misinformed. It is always the other way around. Most Little League pitchers have short strides. And a short stride produces a lot of problems such as poor control where the ball usually ends up too high or too low. Short strides are stressful on the pitcher's back, his front knee and his entire throwing arm. A short stride is the symptom of another problem…slow moving and robotic pitchers.

5. Take the ball out of the glove straight back toward second base: This produces more problems because when you take the ball straight back you create a timing problem because the pitcher's arm is going to get up into the throwing position too soon before the front foot lands. This means the arm has to wait and that waiting is a velocity killer.

6. Pitching drills are the best way to solve mechanical problems: Nothing could be further from the truth and yet just about every coach or private instructor emphasizes—drills, drills and more drills to fix a pitcher's delivery problems. But drills actually create lots of other problems for pitchers. Pitchers that do a lot of drills end up looking very slow, deliberate and too mechanical. And they end up "over-thinking" about their mechanics. Because of that they think they have to aim the ball. There are far better ways to teach than using drills.

Drills create confusion, complicate pitching, actually interfere with learning and even worse…clutter the pitcher's mind

So how's that for a short list of misinformation. None of it makes any sense. So I want you to recall this day, as the day you first discovered the secrets that will help propel your son's pitching…because you will have all the information you need…fully explained that makes sense.

A Simplest Way Yet To Teach Pitching Mechanics To Beginners Or To Tune Up Even Experienced Pitchers

We show you two extremely effective ways to teach a pitcher good mechanics whether the pitcher is just starting out or has been pitching for a while and just needs to make some adjustments in his delivery…to perform better.

For beginners one of the most effective ways to actually teach the delivery…which may sound strange…is to start the pitcher in the finish position first. I call this Pitching Backwards. That's right. You put him in the perfect finish position…the position he would be in after he has released the ball, has flexed his trunk forward, has tracked the ball to the glove and is balanced on one leg. Now he understands the feel of being in the perfect finish position. Most Little League pitchers finish almost standing up straight. So they have never been in a good finish position. If they have never been in a good finish position how can you expect them to get there! So this becomes the goal of every pitch to get to a good finish position. Next we teach him the four other ideal positions to be in all the way back to the beginning.

Now instead of being frustrated because he can't understand what he is supposed to feel, now he fully understands the goal of every pitch and exactly where his body is trying to get to. This takes away all the guesswork.

There are four positions to learn out of the stretch and five out of the wind-up. This has been proven by sports science to be the most effective way to teach a sports skill…whether it's pitching, golf, swimming, rowing or even wrestling. Why? Because the student learns what the goal is of where his body needs to be so his brain teaches his body the sequence of how to get there. The goal ends up being to get to the perfect finish position…a position that many Little Leaguers and high school pitchers never get into. So they never understand the entire sequence of the delivery.

Pitching Backwards beats doing drills by a mile as a simple way of learning proper mechanics. And it works fast.

What About Pitching Clinics?

I am not a big believer in baseball clinics for pitchers. And here's why. Unless you know somebody who has been to the camp you are considering and really recommends it, I would pass.

The problem with most camps is that first of all, the level of instruction is generally not at a high level. And even if it is, there are usually too many pitchers so there is no individual instruction.

And the other problem is, sometimes the information is misinterpreted. The coach says: "get on top of the ball" and the pitcher remembers instead "throw over the top."

And when the camp is over, what if the pitcher needs help? Or has a question? What do you do? Who helps you?

It has been proven that 90% of what is learned is forgotten within 21 days.

The other problem is that most times you will not get good instructors who understand what I have just told you. They continue using old school methods that have been proven to just waste time.

Yes, this is all true even at top D1 clinics.

Why Haven't Parents Been Told These
Alarming Facts About How To Improve Their Son's Pitching?

In the book The Science And Art Of Baseball Pitching, which I co-wrote with a sports scientist in 2006, (624 pages with over 500 scientific references) we revealed the research that has proven why much of today's pitching instruction is just working and may actually be harmful. We wrote that book for high school, college and professional coaches as a reference source so that the truth about how to improve pitching performance would be available for all coaches to consider.

Here is what the new research provided that should help parents of pitchers make better decisions of what their son's should do with their practice time:

1. Long-toss does not improve pitching velocity or reduce injury

2. Pitching drills do not improve mechanics but instead produce slow robotic and over-thinking pitchers

3. Weighted balls do not improve pitching velocity because velocity does not come from the arm

4. Weight training does not improve pitching velocity…in fact it may reduce it

5. Arm strength is not much of a factor for improving velocity—velocity is the result of building more momentum from the body into a long stride. The arm is basically along for the ride

6. Flat ground pitching is not less stressful than mound pitching—and it has no benefit for helping a pitcher's mechanics. In fact it can be harmful.

7. Small or skinny pitchers can learn to throw with overpowering velocity because velocity comes from mechanics which can be improved

How Small And Skinny Pitchers Can Throw Over-powering Fastballs
(5' 10" 170 lb 22 year old rookie pitcher throws fastballs
95-100 mph with great control)

In 2007, Tim Lincecum was a 22 year old 5'10" 170 rookie pitcher for the San Francisco Giants. Tim is clearly a below average size pitcher. In fact, some would say he is almost skinny.

And yet what is unusual about Tim is that his fastball is regularly clocked between 95-100 mph.

And yet the large majority of high school, college baseball coaches and online gurus tell pitchers that they must get bigger and stronger in order to throw harder. Or build arm strength throwing weighted baseballs.

But they are all wrong! Why? Because most do not understand how velocity is created in the first place. It does not come from adding more strength. Or from getting bigger and stronger. Tim Lincecum is clearly not a model of a big and strong athlete.

Here is what Tim Lincecum said after his first major league start on May 6, 2007 when interviewed about his fastball hitting 100 mph.

"My body does all the work and my arm is like a whip that comes along for the ride."

What he means is that by moving his body explosively away from the rubber and building maximum momentum into a very long stride, his body acts as a huge rubber band stretching out to produce elastic energy which provides the power to whip the arm through like a sling-shot.

That is the secret to not only more velocity but to better control. Because if you stride closer to the plate it is far easier to control the ball. And when you move faster less will go wrong with your mechanics.

That is what new sports science research has proven and yet not one coach in 100 knows that.

NOTE:So the next time you hear someone telling you that you must build arm strength in order to throw harder…think about small and skinny Tim Lincecum who is hitting triple digits because he knows how to use his body to speed up his arm. It has little to do with arm strength.

And even Little League pitchers can use this to throw much harder than the bigger kids.

So Here's The Secret To Improved Pitching Velocity

A pitcher's arm is the delivery device of the legs, hips and trunk. A pitcher must understand how to properly transfer his weight forward using a long stride so that his body gets into the right position so that his body stretches out like a huge rubber band….producing the stretching of muscles (elastic strength) to help develop explosive forces to deliver his arm like a "slingshot" at high speed. That is the secret to throwing harder. And no amount of long toss, throwing weighted balls, special drills, working in the weight room or weight lifting will help that.

You want a pitcher's body to be functionally fit and flexible so that all the muscles have the ability to get into a full stretched position just like a big rubber band. And that why youth and high school pitchers need functional fitness…not weight room training.

The fact is we have learned over the past twelve years that if pitchers want to throw harder at any level, they must do two things: get the body specifically fit for pitching, stay flexible, and then using good mechanics get the body to move faster. Good mechanics is what helps a pitcher develop more arm speed. You can't just train the arm. The body speeds up the arm. And that goes for Little Leaguers too.

Before I tell you about our instructional DVD program - Explosive Pitching, I first want to teach you something that will help any pitcher develop "rock solid" mechanics along with strength and flexibility so he can almost instantly throw harder with better control.

What You Must Understand About Improving Pitching Velocity

The single biggest reason that more pitchers never reach their full potential is because they waste their time doing activities that will never produce the promised results of better velocity or control.

The fact is there are no secrets to more pitching velocity. There is nothing special a pitcher can do —such as more long toss, getting bigger and stronger in the weight room, doing special drills of one sort or another or throwing weighted baseballs. Pitchers who think there is a magic formula are taken on a wild goose chase. They will waste time which is the most valuable asset they have if they truly want to reach their full potential.

Pitching velocity can be achieved in two ways and two ways only…and only a handful of coaches or instructors fully understands what I am about to tell you. But it's all backed by the latest sports science research.

The Pitcher's Body Acts Like A Big Rubber Band That
Whips Through At High Speed…It's Not Arm Strength

This elastic energy cannot be built in the weight room because it is purely developed from good mechanics. And it cannot be developed by doing long toss because long toss is a flat ground throwing activity that is nothing like throwing downhill off a mound. The body understands flat ground throwing or long toss as a completely different movement skill. Long toss is not like throwing from the mound so it will not allow a pitcher to build and then efficiently store the elastic energy developed from throwing downhill.

Pitching velocity does not come from developing more general leg or arm strength in the weight room. It comes purely from the development of building momentum in the very beginning of the delivery so that upon landing the pitcher's body in stretched out into the correct position so that all the energy is built up and then transferred to whipping the arm through at high speed like a sling-shot. .

Good mechanics starts by recognizing and then changing how the pitcher moves from his back leg to his front leg using his lower body to put more muscles on stretch which can almost instantly boost his velocity sometimes as much as 6-12 mph over a fairly short period of time…while helping him develop overall better control with less stress to his arm.

Don't let him waste another year chasing promises of velocity from activities like long toss or weight room training that sports science says does not work. Coaches are dead wrong about this because they have not studied this new information. Bottom line is your son can waste time or get on the right track to building his potential.

Don't Waste Another Year Hoping And Wondering If Things Will Change

Does it make sense to let your son continue to pitch with poor mechanics going in to next season while probably getting the same inconsistent results with his velocity and his control…when you know he could be more successful if you just knew how to help him…if you knew exactly what was causing his problems and then had a professional proven plan to begin making the needed adjustments? Remember if things don't change they may actually continue to only get worse. And the longer you wait to make changes the tougher it gets to improve performance.

The fact is that your son must make changes now. The longer he uses poor throwing mechanics or wastes time in the weight room or doing weekly long toss the deeper those bad habits become ingrained and worse yet…the closer and closer he gets to an arm injury.

The fact is that most pitchers do not know how to use their lower body to help build better control along with explosive hip and trunk rotation which is how the arm is whipped through at high speed. Instead they throw with just their arm… without the help of their lower body.

Why Magic Bullets Do Not Work To Boost Velocity Whether You Try:
—weighted balls, weight lifting, long toss or special drills -

There are no magic bullets for boosting velocity—NONE—despite the online hype by former college or even pro pitchers. Don't let bad coaching advice ruin your son's or any pitcher's chances for success.

If you find a program that emphasizes building arm strength by using weighted implements such as weighted balls or special flexible tubing exercises or even the use of weighted vests …then that should be a red flag that you are dealing with "hypesters" and outdated instruction. It is all a smokescreen to divert you away from their poor understanding of the biomechanics of pitching. And that is exactly why they love drills and training aids. They do not know how to instruct in pitching mechanics.

I have researched it "all" over the past ten years and have spent thousands of dollars hiring sports scientists and biomechanists who understand this far better than old fashioned baseball people who use "belief based" coaching instead of "evidence based." If I thought that weighted balls worked I would be recommending them and selling them like crazy because they are an easy sell…but in my opinion that is just like stealing. They don't work.

Do Weighted Balls Work As Promised? Listen to this high school coach:

"I tried the weighted ball system that now seems in fashion. We followed the directions and worked very hard with this system. We have a fairly prestigious program and utilize the gun.

I can tell you from experience that an off-season of throwing the weighted balls DID NOT increase the velocity of my pitchers. We followed the directions precisely and my kids were very, very dedicated to the program. I also had conversations with the supplier of these balls as well as the author of a well known book which advocates and instructs on the use of these balls.

Again, the predicted increase in velocity just wasn't evident. We since stopped using these balls since I saw no statistical reason to keep using them and I could better use this time for more beneficial training."

Mike McCAuley, Lancaster, PA

It Is All About Growth And Development And Just Doing More Pitching

Now let me explain why people think weighted balls work (or even long toss)…but they really don't. They only seem to work for pitchers who are growing and developing or who have not spent much time training. And that is why you should wonder why professional baseball pitchers don't use them to add more velocity.

You see pitchers who are growing and developing are gaining natural strength from year to year. And that's why you will see many high school pitchers add anywhere from 5 to sometimes as much as 12 mph from one season to the next…without them doing much of anything. Sports science has proven this over and over.

It happened to my son. He was only throwing 70 mph as a high school freshman but by the end of his sophomore year he was throwing 83 mph. How? He grew, developed and therefore added natural strength…without doing anything accept specific functional training for pitchers…without weight room training either.

I have helped many pitchers add 7-10 mph from one year to the next by having them focus on better mechanics, functional strength and flexibility and using their natural growth and development.

Many parents feel the same way as this frustrated father: "Prior to finding your program I had spent several hundred dollars on a pitching coach who was leading my son on a path of ruin. He embraced and taught every failed philosophy and technique that you've identified —long toss, towel drills and more drills ad nauseam. My son' s skills were deteriorating."

Pitching Velocity Is Not About Arm Strength

Here is what you must understand that the large majority of baseball coaches at all levels do not. Pitching is not about arm strength but about arm speed. And what I mean is that if a pitcher wants to boost velocity he must do it by speeding up his body so that he is putting more muscles on stretch faster. When done properly this will create a longer stride with better timing of all the parts.

You see velocity starts by using the lower body more efficiently so that energy is transferred from the lower body to the trunk and then it is trunk rotation or the turning of the trunk that delivers the arm at high speed. The arm does not speed up by itself and that is why no amount of throwing weighted balls will work, no amount of weight training will work and even long toss will not work to improve velocity.

Velocity is the direct result of all the forces of the body added together to help speed up the arm. Weighted balls cannot do that.

The weighted ball advocates do not understand what I just explained. It's all a hype and not only will you waste money but your son will waste a bunch of time when he could be working on developing better mechanics.

Remember weighted balls have been around for over 30 years with no success to speak of. They surface every few years. If they worked professional baseball would have much to gain getting all their pitchers …minor leaguers and major leaguers throwing 90 plus. But they don't. Only since the advent of the internet do you find them popular. Why? Because to the uneducated they would "seem" to work but science says they do not. Just like it would seem that getting stronger in the weight room would boost a pitchers velocity…but again pitching velocity is not about strength but about getting the entire body to move faster from the back leg to the front leg using a long stride.

Don't buy the hype!

Is Your Son Getting The Absolute Most Out Of His Ability…
Maybe You Or His Coach Are Missing What The Real Problem Is

What every parent wants for their son is to make sure that when all is said and done that he got the absolute best out of his athletic ability …whatever that ability is. However, when it comes to pitching there are many parents… especially at the high school and college levels whose son's are good athletes but don't seem to be getting the most out of their body or their overall pitching. Many parents believe instinctively that they have more. And that's where my program comes in.

If your son's coach, instructor or you have never videotaped your son then there is no possible way you could know what is holding him back. I teach you what to look for because I see the same things over and over…that most coaches and instructors have no awareness of because they are not good technicians of pitching mechanics. But I am. And I show you exactly what to look for so your son can get the most out of his body and his ability.

Imagine , no more guessing what the problem is!

You will learn what 95% of coaches do not know about pitching mechanics and how to recognize pitching faults…then how to make the needed adjustments. If you think your son's coach is going to be able to do that then you will find that most think they know hitting…but few really know pitching.

Can you afford to guess any longer?

The Ultimate Tool …Videotaping A Pitcher's Mechanics

Unless you are able to videotape a pitcher and be able to see where he is right now with his mechanics then no amount of practice is going to help him. You must have a baseline of where his pitching mechanics are right now and what needs to be adjusted in order to improve performance.

I show you exactly how I do my own video analysis …which I have done on hundreds of high school and college pitchers over the past ten years…and many pros as well. You will learn what I look for and then what to do to fix certain problems. Honestly, you will become so good at this you will wonder why every paid instructor doesn't do it too. And the reason is simple. Most instructors do not have the tools that you will have on how to analyze a pitchers mechanics.

If a pitching instructor is not routinely videotaping his student then he has no way of knowing if positive changes are happening. And you do not have to have any special equipment accept a camcorder that allows you to go frame by frame and slow motion. I personally just hook my digital camcorder up to my t.v.

Or if you have a camcorder that has a pull out window, you can video tape and use it right at the field during practice. It is simple and sure makes practice more effective.

You can instantly pick out mechanical faults work on them and then recheck to see the improvements that you can make during each practice session. Pitchers love it because they can see their progress with their own eyes.

Explosive Weight Shift—Going From The Back Leg To The Front Leg

If you ask 100 youth, high school or college pitchers how they develop power or how they could develop more power, you would likely get a blank stare. . Whenever I start teaching any pitcher what I call "power mechanics", I first explain the sequence of the delivery. My feeling is that I think you must tell every pitcher first where in the delivery does the power happen. Most young pitchers (and many coaches) have it all wrong. They do not understand the concept of weight shift or moving the lower body away from the rubber.

If the pitcher uses good posture, keeps the head over the bellybutton, the head and eyes level, then you will be in a power position at landing. I tell them that you can simplify pitching mechanics and boil most of it down to one important point:

Pitching mechanics is simply about being in the right position to throw when the front foot gets planted. It's about moving a balanced body through space in a controlled manner with good timing and explosiveness.

Conditioning The Pitcher For Power

As I have stated many times pitching is not a strength activity. It takes strength to move a football lineman or push a car up a hill. It does not require strength to throw a 5 oz baseball. If a Little League pitcher can throw a baseball 65-70 mph, which many can then how did they gain that strength? They didn't. They just move their body efficiently using good timing of all the parts. But this does not mean that all weight training is harmful…in fact 3-4 weeks of weight training is beneficial to help prepare the pitchers body for doing the explosive movements you will see in our program.

The problem with weight training is that coaches think that more is better but after so much weight training the pitcher cannot use the added strength that he gains. It is not useable strength so it is a waste of time. And wasting time is one of the reasons that more kids are not successful pitchers. Skill—good mechanics makes pitchers successful not strength training.

Our conditioning program will show pitchers how to strengthen the movements that they use in pitching so that the movements are more stable and explosive. Pitching is an explosive activity and that should be the basis of most of the training…not slow moving weight training which will actually train the pitcher's body to be slow.

We also show you all the arm care exercises using both flexible tubing and light dumbbells as well as a pitching specific flexibility program. Remember there are no arm exercises that aid velocity since the throwing arm is along for the ride and does not supply its own power to deliver the ball at high speed. Pitching velocity comes from elastic energy not from gaining more arm strength.

Important: Keep this in mind…too much flexibility in the pitcher's shoulder can be harmful. Don't let anyone stretch your son's shoulder before he pitches. In fact, studies have proven that stretching before pitching reduces velocity and increases the risk of arm injury. Warm up the arm but do not stretch the arm. So don't let your son do "stretching of his arm" before he pitches. Remember the shoulder is already the most flexible joint in the body. It needs stability much more than flexibility. There is a fine line between too much flexibility and not enough stability. An overstretched rubber band has less power not more. If the muscles, tendons or ligaments of the shoulder are too stretched they produce less elastic energy to whip the arm through not more.

Why Pitchers Throw High In The Strike Zone

Maybe you thought throwing high in the strike zone had to do with not bending the back or not following through or maybe it's because the pitcher just needs to practice his control more.

Those are the things you will commonly hear coaches saying. But guess what? There is no relationship whatsoever. When pitchers understand that velocity is about good timing between what the arm is doing and what the lower body and trunk are doing, their control gets better automatically. Simple as that.

It really comes down to this: Better mechanics equals better control, lower pitch counts, better velocity, less risk of injury and more success. And more fun.

Anyway, you've heard those stories about pitchers getting full scholarships to top D1 schools or getting drafted and signing big bonuses. But have you ever wondered how those players can command that much money? Even as a former major leaguer, I always did.

You're wondering! Could this be you? Could this be your son? Could this happen to one of your players?

…YES IT COULD! Why not?

As a former pro pitcher I never gave up studying the science of pitching. I am not a professional writer but what I have to say is so important I felt I had to write it myself. So please bear with me for a while. If you find some grammatical mistakes I'm sorry.

A lot of what I want to help you teach your son, I didn't learn until after I left pro ball. Sad but true.

And here's another thing.

Why Pitchers Shouldn't Throw Over-the-Top

First of all, if you have ever watched a pitcher with a very "high" arm angle (throws over-the-top) you will notice they are always throwing off balance. Notice how they have to move their head off to the side to make room for their arm coming over-the-top. This pushes their weight off to the side. And notice how their head has to go off at an angle. A righty for example will fall off toward first base. And this causes control problems. And with their weight moving off to the side too early, a loss of power.

And the other thing about throwing over-the-top, it clearly creates more arm injuries such as -- impingement of the shoulder.

So Explain To Me -
What's Wrong With Curve balls?

Now here's what happens when young pitchers start throwing curve balls. First of all, most young hitters from Little League on through even high school, can't hit a curve ball. So the pitcher and the coach begin to fall in love with the curve ball. After all since nobody can hit it, why not throw it more. It becomes the "out" pitch in every situation. And guess what happens to that pitcher's fastball? He never develops it.

And you still hear even some so-called "experts" say as long as a curve ball is thrown correctly there is no problem with arm injury. Don't believe it! Any orthopedic doctor will tell you throwing a curve ball puts undue stress on the young growing arm. Bones have not fully developed or hardened. Need more information? Listen to what Dr. Ralph Salzer, an orthopedist and Dixie Youth Baseball coach says about youngsters throwing curve balls. (Dr. Salzer by the way assisted Dr. James Andrews when Boston Red Sox pitcher, Roger Clemens had his first shoulder surgery back in 1985.)

Think about this for a minute…

"When a little league pitcher cocks his wrist to throw a curve ball, for example, it fires a flexor muscle in the forearm, which is attached directly to a growth plate in the elbow. An over-dependence on a curve can cause the bones in the forearm to elongate, which in turn stifles the growth of bones in the upper arm. As a result the forearm bows out at an odd angle."

Dr. Ralph Salzer, M.D.,orthopedic surgeon, Beaufort, SC

Pretty scary wouldn't you say? And yet nobody wants to listen.

How Misinformed Coaches Are Ruining Young Arms

Most coaches out there from Little League right through high school, don't have a clue about overuse injuries. Thousands of pitchers each year are ruined because of one thing—overuse injuries and not being fit to pitch.

Whether you are a Dad, a coach or a player remember one thing Young arms are not BIONIC. But also if a pitcher does not practice enough pitching his body will not remain fit to pitch.

Did you know that every time a pitcher throws a baseball both his shoulder and elbow want desperately to fly out of the socket? That's the kind of stress a pitcher's arm goes through. In fact, pitching a baseball is the single most stressful act in sports.

And do you know what keeps that arm stabilized so that it doesn't fly out of the socket. Nothing more than what orthopedic doctors call—SOFT TISSUE. Muscles, tendons and ligaments.

And these tendons and ligaments are attached to undeveloped bones.

CAUTION: Recent studies indicate that during the past seven years high school arm surgeries have increased ten times.

So every time that young pitcher goes over a certain pitch count, here is what happens. The soft tissue fibers begin to get what are called micro-tears—the beginning stages of injury. And these tendons start tugging on the bones. And since these bones are not fully developed and are actually bone cartilage (bone waiting to happen) the tendons can actually pull a piece of bone away and guess what you have - BONE CHIPS. Or you develop bone spurs. And this starts happening believe it or not as early as 10 years old.

So when that pitcher starts complaining of elbow pain or soreness you had better listen. Better yet buy yourself a little hand held counter and start counting pitches. Don't let some over-enthusiastic coach ruin another young arm. It doesn't have to happen.

And don't think because your son is "big and strong" for his age that this won't happen. In fact, it has nothing at all to do with how physical he might be or how strong he is, it's all about what is happening on the inside with an athlete that is still growing.

For most it's just not worth the risk? .

DO I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION YET?

Keep this in mind, if you don't have an overall physical and mental plan, your son will have a very frustrating time reaching his full potential or trying to reach the next level.

Having A Total Pitching Plan Can Seem Like A
"Magic Bullet" For Pitching Success

Pitchers at every level must have a total plan of functional strength, flexibility and good mechanics. This combination helps the body develop the rotational forces needed to develop power. And at the same time, the body helps the arm develop more speed with much less stress.

Think of it this way. A strong flexible body becomes the handle and the arm becomes the whip. This is exactly how pitchers like Pedro Martinez can be smaller and yet develop such high forces from forward momentum and a long stride that help create that above average or dominating arm speed.

So once young pitchers work on developing better functional strength—which is the strength needed for pitching, they find that developing better mechanics is much easier because the body works more effortlessly.

"We were driving home from the last game of the season and my son was very quiet and upset, as he felt as if he had no place or part on the team. I remember it like it was yesterday and he said: "Dad, I love to pitch and play, so can you make me so good, they have no choice but to play me!!" That is when you, your wife Ginny and All About Pitching came into our lives, and it has been nothing short of fun and amazing ever since.

John Hooker, Palm City, FL

Is This The Problem…
Your Son Is Throwing With Just His Arm?

I am sure you have heard this statement about a pitcher: He is throwing with just his arm? And what that means is he is not using his hips and trunk to help accelerate the arm so it throws harder and with less stress.

So when pitchers learn how to build momentum, which provides the forces from a long stride, they immediately throw harder with less effort. It is then that their arms create power like a "whip."And the arm does less work…not more

This is the secret to NO MORE SORE ARMS!

Does Having A Complete Pitching Program
Make Sense To You As A Parent?

Think about this for a minute. When your son has a poor performance while pitching, do you know what to tell him so he doesn't feel frustrated, discouraged or even embarrassed? Or if he has a good performance does he know why so he is able to go back out next time and repeat it? Probably not.

More than likely your son is left with no answers on how to improve or how to stay consistent from game to game? Are you confident that his coach has the skills to help him identify what he needs to work on? Has he helped him so far? The fact is most coaches, even at the high school level, don't have that ability. They seem to know hitting but not pitching.

How about this. Instead of the frustration, what if you had the resources right now, a complete plan in front of you that gave you the answers so that you could sit down together with your son and get going on making the needed adjustments so he would understand what to work on so he could improve. How do you think that would effect his confidence? And isn't that all we want for our kids. We want them to feel good - not bad. And when they feel bad we want to help them.

Doesn't that make sense?

Unfortunately there are thousands of pitchers out there every year who have the ability to be successful but not the resources to recognize or make the needed adjustments to make themselves better. And that's sad .

"My 14 year old son's velocity jumped 12 mph, his control improved dramatically and his arm pain vanished. For the first time since he had been pitching, he finally understands what he is doing…what causes the ball to do what it does and how his body functions to be effective…Now that's priceless."

Mark A Smith, Downers, Grove, Il

Parents Especially Want Their Sons To Feel Confidence and Success

Most parents know that good pitching instruction is hard…if not impossible to find. And most just don't know where to turn.

So my idea was to create an easy to follow, yet very detailed and in-depth instructional program that even non-coaching moms and dads would be able to understand. So they could have a hand in helping their sons succeed as pitchers.

To Parents Of Pitchers Just Starting Out In Little League —Ages 8-12

Parents ask us all the time—"My son is just 9 years old, and just starting out. Does he really need this level of instruction? I just want him to go out there and have some fun. He's a long way from high school or college. So I am not sure we really need this right now." Those are good questions and here's my advice to parents with youngsters starting out…

"Within 2 hours of receiving the program and watching the Explosive Pitching DVD's… the instruction about using your hips explosively clicked for my 11 year old. He then went to play in a tournament this past weekend and pitched a shut out against the champion team there and he increased his velocity from 58 to 65 mph!!! The coaches were amazed at the difference and one said, "Your son used to be a thrower, now he is a pitcher." We are so pleased with the results and are excited to see even more improvement as we go through the program. Thank you so much.

Sheila Rice, Warrenton, VA

Pitching Is Similar To Golf—Both Require Skills To Have Success

For learning sports skills it is a known fact that kids from 10-13 years old must learn what we call the ABC's - agility, balance and coordination. This helps them develop a better overall feel when performing the pitching delivery. But it also means that if they haven't learned proper throwing mechanics by those ages, then it will take that much longer to break bad habits. Many simply lose interest and get discouraged. So they end up playing soccer.

But pitching like golf is a skill sport. It requires getting the body into the correct position in order to execute hitting the ball or in pitching hitting the glove with some consistency. Unless you want to be just a hacker, golf at any age requires proper instruction. Otherwise you might as well pray just before you hit the ball.

How well do you think Tiger Woods would be doing right now if his dad got him lessons after high school? Believe me pitching is no different. You must know what you are doing when you have success and when you have failure. Because only then will you know what produced what result.

Without Proper Skills Your Son Might Get
Discouraged Or Embarrassed In Front Of His Peers

Imagine a young boy who wants to play golf. If he has no instruction his results may be very poor. How much fun will he have if he is hitting the ball into the rough all the time. He will get discouraged and lose interest. Maybe embarrassed. And the same goes for pitching. How much fun will your son have if he is walking batters, getting hit hard or constantly complaining of a sore arm? It comes down to this—the sooner they learn proper mechanics the quicker they succeed.

Unlike professional pitchers, most youth or high school pitchers do not use their entire bodies to help their arm throw the ball. So what happens is in an effort to try to throw harder they actually get their upper body moving out instead of using the lower body…which is how big league pitchers develop velocity. The result of not using the lower body and the trunk means that the pitcher's throwing arm is going to drag.

And these poor throwing mechanics result in three problems:

1. The pitcher's arm takes on most of the stress of the throw instead of the lower body…the hips and trunk

2. The pitcher loses velocity because his arm is doing all the work instead of his lower body.

3. The pitcher's control suffers because his mechanics don't allow him to get closer to the plate… so you will notice lots of balls up in the strike zone. Remember high pitches have nothing to do with not bending the back or following through.

Parents who have invested in our Explosive Pitching instructional program have referred to it as "the simple system." We believe that if the information is not easy to understand then it is useless.

Maybe you don't think you don't need a program right now and yet the longer you wait the tougher it will be to break all those bad habits. Or you think your son is fine just the way he is. His coaches said he has good mechanics. But does his coach really know? Most don't…at the high school level and the college level as well. And his instructor may not know as well…even if he is a former professional pitcher.

Our Program Works—Because It's Simple

Let me explain why we designed the program the way we did and how it could turn out to be the best baseball value you will find.

If your son wants to become the best he can be as a pitcher then you as a supportive baseball parent might want to consider our simple program. And here's why.

Why We Designed The Program Like This—And Why It Works -
Even Mothers Are Coaching Their Sons

Maybe you are wondering if you have the time or knowledge to do this…to actually help your son become a better pitcher. Look, this is not "rocket science." All you have to do is follow along and just look for the proper body positions that I show you to watch for. And it doesn't make any difference whether you ever played baseball or not. Honestly I have made it that simple.

If a single Mom from Texas can do it, so can you. She had to say this:

"It is everything and more than I was looking for. Jared and I call it our "secret weapon." (Jared is 9 just starting out on the right track.)

Janet Jenkins, Arlington, TX

And it doesn't have to take a lot of time. You dish it out in small doses. And if you ever do have a question I am here to help you by phone or on my private customer forums where hundreds of our customers go every day for advice.

When you are evaluating any pitching instruction whether on video, in a book or from an instructor ask yourself how you think it will work to produce better overall performance.

Most programs out there have their basis of instruction in doing lots of pitching drills. Or with instructors it becomes a lot of what I call "glorified bullpens" that provide little instruction. But you pay anyway…even though your son may actually be getting worse and worse.

Our research shows that drills or partial practice should only be done with beginners. Drills for a high school or college pitcher can actually set him back because pitching is a two step motor skill…like golf with no "natural breaks." That means if you slow it down or try to break out a part that you risk upsetting the entire delivery when you try to reinsert the fixed part that has been drilled. We believe most drills are destructive. We use some drills but not the way others do and only sparingly.

Here's how we set up the program and why it makes sense to our customers:

1. Learn our lower body and upper body sequence of mechanics so you understand how all the parts should work together to produce the "explosive delivery"—the body delivering the arm.

2. Videotape the pitcher using our DVD and 12 page written mechanical tool—find out what are the pitcher's problems.

3. Then work on making the needed adjustments from the program. It's that simple.

4. Continuously work on eliminating errors.

Please understand that our program is just like any educational program—you continue to get better based on what you know. What I mean is even if your son is having success right now, it doesn't mean that he won't have problems in the future, come up against some road blocks because he is growing or is pitching against better competition at a higher level.

What Do I Mean By Working A Plan?

Most of our customers who purchase our program have purchased other books even several videos on pitching. And many have private instructors. So why would they invest in our program? Because once they were done with these books and videos they still didn't know what to do—they didn't know how to take the information and give it to their sons in the proper doses. So the information may have been good but it wasn't a good value because there was no road map to follow - no formula. And it only covered bits and pieces.

The fact is that if there is no plan there is little chance of success. Pitching is a skill just like golf.

Here's what the program will teach your son:

1. The elements that make up a smooth, explosive and effortless delivery—what does it look like and how do you teach it step by step? Whether your son is 9 or 19 years old.

2. How do you recognize any problems that your son already has by simply videotaping him?

3. And then what drills or adjustments should your son do to help him fix his problems.

4. How does proper conditioning work to help pitching mechanics and reduce the risk of injury?

And when you have questions or need help we are there with support—just a phone call away. Or get on our customer forums on our web site.

Doesn't this make sense! There is no other program that is this organized and goes to this extent in-depth that shows you exactly how to get started NOW!

When Your Son Struggles And He Will -
Can You Help Him? Do You Have Answers?

It's great when our kids are doing great. But what do we do when they start to struggle. They will turn to you for help. But if you don't know how to help them when they start to struggle on the mound, they may just get discouraged and want to quit. And that doesn't have to happen.

So that's why we offer ongoing support—that thousands of parents are using right now to help their son be the best they can be at the sport and position they love.

Doesn't it make sense to have your son follow a complete plan?

"Dick's program has given me the knowledge I need as a pitching coach to help young people succeed. I highly recommend it to any pitcher, from Little League through college. From mechanics to conditioning to the mental aspect, everything he does is top notch. His program helped our pitchers go 29-1 and have a 0.80 team ERA and win a State Championship last season."

Banks Faulkner, Gilbert Indian Baseball, Gilbert, SC

Why Invest In This Program?
Aren't There Other Alternatives?

My program is only one way to get instruction for your son. But we fully guarantee your satisfaction for "One Full Year." And we provide ongoing support. When you have question or problem…which you will eventually we are here with combined professional experience of over 30 years.

So if you look elsewhere you will find it nearly impossible to get the expertise that we offer in one program. We haven't left anything out. But you can take your chances because there are other ways.

You can purchase books or single videos for about $29 each. And then try to figure out how to apply the scant and possibly outdated information that you will get on most videos. Then you will be without backup support to clarify questions that you may have. You really do get what you pay for.

He can go to baseball camp. This will set you back anywhere from $200-$500 and up. However, there are problems with camps. Usually pitchers get no one on one instruction and if so maybe 10-15 minutes max. Then what? Also you will be very, very lucky if you get a qualified instructor who has kept up with the latest in biomechanics. Most do not since they are part time instructors. And it has been proven that within 21 days nearly 90% of what was taught will be forgotten. And much will be misinterpreted incorrectly by the young pitcher.

Pitching Instructor—hiring a private instructor is another way to go. The cost for a one hour lesson usually will run you about $50-75 per hour and most instructors have a 5 lesson minimum because your son will hardly get anywhere with less than 5-10 lessons. So you will have to invest a minimum of $250-1500 to make a dent in getting him on track. How much do you think your son will learn and then retain in 10 lessons? And then is the instructor qualified? He may not be even if he played pro ball because he may not be a good teacher or understand mechanics. He may only understand what worked for him but that may not work for your son. It is a poor way to teach.

Do you think he can teach your son a complete pitching plan? No he can't. And over time this can get very, very costly. And then hopefully you have a good one who comes highly recommended.

There is another problem with hiring private instructors. They aren't at the games. You are. And it's the reason that you must know how to help him since you will be their watching. It can be painful or fun.

I am a parent of three kids with two boys playing baseball. About two months ago, I decided to invest in your pitching program. I watched your video describing the mechanics of pitching with my eleven year-old son. We especially like to watch the "Explosive Pitching" video describing the forceful weight shift with a smooth delivery. My son used to pitch around 42 to 47 mph depending upon the pitches. This week, I clocked him around 57 to 63 mph. Just in two months, his velocity went from 47 to 63 mph.

Akiko Dinelli, Pensacola, FL

There Is Another Problem With Private Instructors

When your boy is pitching in games who will be there to watch him? It won't be the instructor—it will be you. So how will you know what to tell him if he has a bad game - when his problems are related to his mechanics or his mental approach? It might take another 5-6 lessons ($250-$300) to get him back on track.

And more than likely your son's instructor is not going to be knowledgeable enough to give him a complete strength and conditioning plan. So you end up getting just a part of a pitching program.

I can assure you this—he will always look toward his parents for support when things start going downhill.

How much better would you feel if you could say: "Don't worry son you and I can fix this because we have the tools." Or you can also call me. And I will be there with answers and assurance.

When our kids decide they want to participate in an outside activity such as playing the piano or gymnastics or karate what will you do? Will you buy them or rent them a piano and say "PLAY!" Of course not. You will get them lessons just as my dad did when I wanted to play the trumpet.

Will you buy a book on gymnastics or will you enroll them in a gymnastics class? Probably a class. Why? Because you want to make sure they get proper instruction and don't get hurt.

I have learned so much from you in the past 3 years and there is still so much more to learn. I try to implement what you are say into the Little Leaguers I coach and the league. It definitely shows. My teams pitching dominates the league. My pitchers are the only kids that never have sore arms. There control is simply the best in the league. And all I let them throw is a fastball and a change up (knuckle-ball, they love it) My pitchers are they only kids that can pitch a whole game. And the credit all goes to you. They only bad thing is, that, most coaches don't want to hear what I am saying, because it goes against the grain. It is so sad. It is so hard and frustrating, because once the kids get on another team or goes to a baseball camp, they are told not to do what I was teaching them and go back to the old ways. I applaud your efforts in searching for the correct ways to pitch and get fit to pitch. I can't thank you enough!!!!!!!!!

My Program Will Help You Evaluate Your Son's Pitching Instructor…
So That You Can Tell Whether You Are Getting Good Instruction Or Not

Hopefully, your son has one of the very few qualified pitching instructors out there. But believe me they are few and far between. Many of our customers have had pitching instructors and still do but have used our program to compare to what his instructor is teaching….to make sure they were getting their money's worth and that this instructor did not mess him up. Many found out that they weren't getting their money's worth. So they fired them. If your son has a pitching instructor I hope that he's highly qualified. Too many are not.

Imagine working with an instructor for months and not seeing improvement in better velocity or control! And what qualifies someone to call themselves a pitching instructor? You might think because they pitched in college or even pro ball or even played in the big leagues that they are extremely qualified. Well…think again and here's why.

Pitchers who have had experience even pitching at a high level…even the big leagues generally only know what worked for them. So your son will learn only what they know and many do not really fully understand proper mechanics in-depth. So that means your son will not get total instruction. In most cases these former pitchers have not studied pitching mechanics to the degree that is needed if you want to teach the latest in the biomechanics of pitching.

In fact, most major league pitchers will admit that they could never teach someone else how to do what they do. All they know is that what they did worked for them. It doesn't mean it will work for everyone because in most cases many of these pitchers got no instruction to speak of. They just had talent.

And some have found out that their instructors were pretty good and also good guys who were willing and open to learning more. In fact, I always suggest that you share our program with your son's instructor. Then you know you will be getting your money's worth.

Here are some telltale signs that you should look at to
evaluate your son's instructor:

Has your son's instructor done a video analysis? If not there is no way he would be able to pick out all the possible mechanical problems simply by using just the naked eye. Too much is going on. I would have a big question mark about this guy. Some other things your son's instructor ought to be doing: He should explain to you exactly what he sees as mechanical problems that need to be fixed, he needs to explain the causes of the problems, and he needs to explain what the results will be when all the changes are made. If he doesn't do that…then you should consider finding a different instructor. Also ask him how power is created or how to specifically improve velocity? Don't let him tell you that it will come. Make him explain how. After all that is what you are paying him for.

Remember…all it takes is one instructor to tell your son to make the wrong adjustment and the results can ruin his future performance, lead to injury and end his career too soon.

And even worse …it could ruin his confidence and destroy his self-esteem. And imagine how that could adversely effect his school work and his life in general!

"We got the package half way through the season when my 11 year old was throwing 50-53. Then the next Spring he started throwing 63 and finally his velocity jumped to 68-70 mph. I am not an expert. Anyone who gets this program with a little patience can teach their kid mechanics to throw hard and in the zone."

Pat Moore, Waverly, NE

We Teach Pitchers How To
Use The Body To Reduce Stress From The Arm

You have heard the phrase:"He is throwing with just his arm." What that means is that a pitcher is not using his body and because of that he is putting all the stress of the pitch on his arm. And that creates two problems. One is an arm injury and the other is he will lose velocity. And how much fun do you think your son will have playing baseball if he has to spend the season nursing a sore arm?

Do you know how to recognize mechanical problems that lead to poor control, reduced velocity or worse—injury? If your son has a bad game, do you know what to work on so he improves or is he left to figure it out for himself or do you tell him to just try harder?

And besides losing power, poor mechanics will also effect your son's control and consistency. When a pitcher's body is not in the right position or his overall timing is off, his release point will be effected. So the ball ends up high in the strike zone or low in dirt. But you don't change the release point of the arm, you just adjust the position of the body which fixes the position of the arm. And BINGO you instantly get better control.

So that's where our Explosive Pitching instructional DVD's come in. You not only teach your son sound mechanics and better control but also a complete pitching plan so he will learn how to use his body effectively and how to take care of his arm so it stays strong all season long. And how to have confidence and feel good on the mound whether he has a good outing or a bad outing.

People who have used our conditioning program along with our video series—Explosive Pitching call it "the cheapest ARM INSURANCE money can buy."

It's no fun being a pitcher when you have a sore arm. And it's no fun being a parent either. Especially when it can be avoided.

If you're like a lot of parents…I am sure you have the same questions that many of our customers used to have before they got their sons on my Pitching Mastery instructional program.

For example maybe you have these concerns and don't quite know what to do…

1. Your son has a good arm and wants to pitch but the coach won't let him because he can't throw strikes… he needs better control but you don't know what adjustments to make, what to do or where to turn

2. He's not consistent—he has a good game and then a couple of bad games and you don't want him to get discouraged

3. You suspect his throwing mechanics are poor and you think it could lead to injury

4. He can throw the ball but he just doesn't look powerful enough—he looks slow, choppy and too mechanical

5. He doesn't look smooth or fluid—he's too herky-jerky or looks a little stiff

6. He is constantly complaining of a sore arm—and your getting worried! He has a short stride.

7. You aren't sure that his coach really knows much about pitching

Our instructional program—Explosive Pitching has been tried, tested and constantly upgraded since 1995, and as of Sept 1, 2007 nearly 19,277 pitchers at all levels are using the program with outstanding success. Why? Because it's easy for any parent or son to follow. You get answers to what stops pitchers of all ages. It works fast, it's a true complete "turn key" program that is guaranteed to give you the results that you would expect from a top professional instructor and a former big leaguer—and besides our full ongoing support you also get a warranty.

Your program has enlightened my son on many things that I tried to tell him, but since I have never been a pitcher, my advice did not fly with him. This year, before your program , I got him from throwing 78-80 mph to 85-87 by telling him to speed up and lengthen his stride. At one of his games that he did not do well in, he was griping about the hole the other pitcher was wearing in the mound. Well, this kid was about 5' 7" and my son is 6' 2". From basic observation I told him he has no business landing in the same spot as a kid that was 7" shorter than him. We went out and got him to lengthen his stride, which he had to speed up to do and BAM! immediate increase in velocity. I purchased your program when I learned that this is your philosophy and even through my own paltry observations was dead on. There are things we have learned through you program that I did not know and we are going to begin working on after we have reviewed all the information, probably next week. By the way, my oldest son is 6'2", 145 lbs. and is getting naturally stronger every day. I do not doubt that through this program, he will be throwing 90+ by next spring. I will be looking forward to sharing his progress with you fellows.

My 100% "One Year" MONEY BACK We Part Friends Guarantee

…imagine you can try it out for one full year—an entire season and see if you can get the results you hope for. I take all the risk. You take none.

If my program is not everything I describe including the best pitching instruction out there, simply return it to us within 1 year of date of purchase—you have a no questions asked—quick return—money back guarantee less shipping and handling.

What does this guarantee tell you about our program? People just don't return it. It's too valuable. And they want our support when there is a problem.

But you be the judge. There is absolutely no risk.

Just send it back for a prompt, courteous refund. And the free bonuses are yours to keep regardless.

Nobody offers such a long guarantee because they are afraid people will return it. We aren't. Why? Because our program works and is much too valuable.

Do you know what to tell your son when he has a bad game other than to "keep on trying harder." In most cases that just won't work. The problem can usually be fixed with some mechanical adjustments or by using one of dozens of mental strategies you will learn.

You just can't learn pitching from a book or from one video. You need a complete program that covers mechanics, strength and conditioning, arm care, and mental toughness training. And that's why we don't sell individual DVD's.

Each of our DVD's has a purpose and they work together. Yes, there is a lot involved and if you miss just one important element, you may be putting your son's future at risk.

And when you need help you get Free support right now by phone or on our web site. Talk to me directly. I can clear up most questions within just 10 minutes because I have been doing this since August of 1995.

If your son is just starting out, this program can get him off the bench and pitching with confidence and success his first season. If your son is having success, this program will show him how to get to the next level, whether it's how to make a mechanical adjustment which might help him boost his velocity that extra 5-7 mph or instantly help his control. Please join us on a wonderful journey helping kids become the best they can be.

I charge $150 for a lesson and $327 for a video analysis. Not cheap but what I provide works.

I figure that -- if I tried to teach you and your son all that was in this program…it would take an entire week to even scratch the surface or about 24 lessons. Let's just say on average about 20 hours of instruction by me. That's $3600.

But don't consider the price of this package against what I put into it. (go to the end of this letter for the order form)

Instead…

How Much Is The Complete Explosive Pitching Clinic In A Box
Going To Cost Me?

The price of about 5-6 average pitching lessons where you will have nothing to refer back to…where you will not learn how to videotape and instantly find faults that kill velocity or control.

So I came up with what I felt was a more than fair price for the entire package of DVD's, audio CD's and all the written material plus the nine free bonuses which include support on my exclusive member's forums as well as a time each week when I will help you by phone.

For A Limited Time $327 dollars For The Whole System And Get Started For Just $129.00 plus shipping

Remember, the system is shipped out within 24 hours, usually the same day we get the order so you have it all within 3-4 days. You can take four months to pay for it.

Plus, for giving my fully researched Explosive Pitching course a try is totally Risk-Free, because the entire program is…

Backed By An Iron-Clad One-Year Complete Money Back Satisfaction Guarentee

And if you are still wondering whether you should give Explosive Pitching a try, think about this: You have one entire year to try to the program or you get all your money back less the small shipping fee.

Go through the DVD's, the audio, the written material…gain exclusive access to my Member's Only discussion forums with thousands of other Explosive Pitching parents, coaches and players. Watch examples of videos by students who are 5, 7 even 12 mph in velocity in a relatively short time.

Put the system to work right now. What have you got to lose?

If for any reason, our system does not live up to your expecations—just send it back and I personally guarantee a complete refund of all your money back…no questions asked.

No hassles…no return authorization needed. We'll take it back even if your dog ate half of it.

Figure The Price Against How Your Son Will Benefit And
How Much You Will Save On Pitching Lessons

You will find that the value and education from my program is dozens of times the value you pay for even 10 lessons at $50 an hour. And you will have this program as long as your son pitches.

Think about what ongoing lessons and clinics will cost…and you get no ongoing support. If your son gets one lesson a week for three months that's $600.00. That $600 could be a bargain if it's good instruction or a complete rip-off that could set your son backwards being a complete waste of time and money. And what will you have to refer to when you are working together in the back yard? Or what will you do when he has a poor performance? Wait for the next lesson?

Every time you use my program you save $50 and you can use it every single day if you want to. What is that going to save you in time and money? The more you use it the better your investment becomes. And besides that you get to try it out for a full year. Honestly, this is a "no-brainer" for you.

If you have a pitching instructor don't you want to make sure he is giving your son the best instruction? Of course you do. And my program will give you the peace of mind that your son is getting the very best instruction. And if his instructor is not teaching what you see in my program…you may just decide to fire him…as many of our parents have rather than waste time and money.

The entire course is the next best thing to having a professional pitching coach right there with you everyday Or far better than wasting money on a camp where you get no one-on-one instruction even if you are lucky enough to get a coach who knows pitching.

And if your son pitches right on into high school imagine how little this program will really have cost you. The longer you continue to use it the cheaper it gets…and the better investment it is for you…and your son.

This is for parents who want their sons to have a great experience in Little League and then every advantage at the high school level… or for getting that college scholarship.

"Spent the weekend with the DVD's and reading material, Took my son to the field and video taped a short bullpen session and spent the evening reviewing. Your guide made it simple to see where his faults were, and also his many good habits. I will be changing things slowly starting with the lower body over the next few weeks and then see how they affect the upper body before making any changes there. Thanks again for the great course, I feel I have all ready got more out of it than the last year of pitching lessons, and I have only scratched the surface."

Steve Brisbey, Coral Springs, FL

What is a program like this worth to you and your son?

A clinic will set you back at least $200 and your son will have nothing to refer back to. And he will get no one-on-one instruction. And he will forget 90% of what was taught within a week.

A pitching instructor will cost you a minimum of $500 because your son will need a bare minimum of 10 lessons to just get him going…usually many more…if you are lucky enough to get a good instructor. And then you will need some follow up help in the future. So maybe another $1000-3000.

Imagine a 1 year guarantee. Nobody offers a one year guarantee because they are afraid people will return it. We aren't. Why? Because our program works and is much too valuable.

Do you know what to tell your son when he has a bad game other than to "keep on trying harder." In most cases that just won't work. The problem can usually be fixed with some mechanical adjustments or by using one of dozens of mental strategies you will learn.

Introducing Explosive Pitching On DVD…The Only Fully Researched Pitching Instruction Today

After I hired two sports scientists back in 2004 and read all the research over a five month period, I was forced to change my program completely. That's when I developed Explosive Pitching and put the entire new program on DVD. The new approach all based on the new research emphasized that it was the explosive movement of the pitcher's body that created velocity—not the arm and that if you wanted pitchers to improve you had to videotape their mechanics so that you could actually recognize each mechanical fault by slowing down the delivery into slow motion or frame-by-frame.

This program runs completely counter to what most program teach since most instructors still focus on the arm as the source of velocity. This we believe is why so many pitchers are looking for more velocity and the big reason why there are so many arm injuries today.

Here's how you can try the program for yourself…RISK FREE!

I'll send you Explosive Pitching on DVD for a special off-season discounted price of $327 plus $15 for shipping handling. This does not include our Conditioning the Pitcher For Power DVD's…complete conditioning program which can be added for just $67 a savings of $30 off the regular price of $97.

Here's what you get with Explosive Pitching:

You get a total of five (5) DVD's

1. Explosive Pitching has two (2),

2. How To Video Analyze A Pitcher's Mechanics (1)

3. Strategy, Ball Movement, Throwing All the Pitches (1), Building a Pitching Plan

4. My Favorite Pitching Drills. (for beginners only)

DVD #5 & #6 . Power Conditioning For Pitchers—3 hours of video of all the explosive and functional exercises to build core strength and more elastic energy. A complete "arm care" and flexibility program. Includes a 1 hour audio CD and two 50 page workout booklets with day to day schedules of what exercises to do during the off season. Also contains an in season workout.

What My Explosive Pitching DVD's Teach

DVD #1&2: Explosive Pitching DVD (double set of two disks)—this DVD set will teach you the basis of good upper and lower body mechanics. You'll see demonstrated by a pro pitcher the ideal positions of the body using good mechanics.

You will also learn the most effective way to teach a beginner how to understand good mechanics by teaching the delivery backwards. Dr. Rushall, the co-author of my book, did extensive research on what he referred to as "Backward Shaping" and why it is even far more effective than pitching drills. It can also be used for tune-ups with experienced pitchers from time to time.

You'll learn why the towel drill or scap loading are not effective and can actually be dangerous on a pitcher's shoulder. Mark Prior is a good example of a pitcher who has used both the towel drill and scap loading and has had constant arm problems and finally ended up with shoulder surgery. Be careful who you listen to and what sounds good…it may be very counter-productive and lead to career ending arm injuries.

DVD #3: How To Video Analyze Any Pitcher's Mechanics This DVD will using a professional pitcher will demonstrate exactly how to use a camcorder to videotape any pitcher and identify any problems in his delivery. Initially used by golf pros, this may be the most highly effective tool for helping a pitcher improve. Not only does it help the teacher identify problems but more importantly it allows the pitcher to see what the teacher is explaining. This "feedback" from seeing the video is the best learning tool for the pitcher. Only when he sees himself is he able to begin to make the correction. It is amazing how fast changes occur when pitchers finally see what they are doing.

DVD #4: Grips, Ball Movement, Change-up And Working A Plan This DVD teaches all the grips and how to throw a four-seam and two-seam fastball, a change-up, curve ball, slider and cutter. You will also learn how to change speeds and how to pitch to hitters to keep them uncomfortable. You will learn why pitchers end up having the ball rotate horizontally or what others may refer to as a natural curve. This natural curve actually reduces velocity and adds stress to the arm. Fixing it is simply a grip change.

DVD #5—My Favorite Pitching Drills. The latest research says that drills should only be done with beginning pitchers and only on a limited basis. These are some that you may find valuable in the beginning. Drills should never be done with pitchers who already have a delivery built. It just slows them down.

Whether your son is just starting out or is an experienced college pitcher, he must understand good mechanics and how to recognize what might be holding him back.

How to build more momentum and use the lower body to drive into a long stride is the key to both velocity and reducing arm injuries.

What About Long toss?

Working on long toss during the season can be counterproductive. By April 23, 2007 nearly 25% of major league pitchers were on the disabled list with arm injuries and they all long toss. Long toss does not prevent injury at all and has actually proven to be more stressful. Be very careful.

Long toss should only be used as a warm-up tool or as part of a full body conditioning routine in the off-season. But never during the season.

Remember just about every pitcher does long toss. So if it worked to produce more velocity, why is it that so many pitchers at the high school and college levels are always looking for ways to improve their fastball! It is apparent that long toss does not work to improve velocity.

What Does A Former Major League Pitcher Say About Long-toss?

Here's what former minor league pitching coach and 26 year big league veteran Tommy John had to say about long toss:

I'm not an advocate of long throwing. Shortstops and catchers don't long-toss, so why do pitchers do it? That's an outfielder's skill. Guys are out there throwing 200 feet. But the muscles you're trying to strengthen as a pitcher have no idea if you're throwing 60 feet or 200 feet. I try to get my guys to throw off the mound every day if they want to…The more you practice throwing strikes, the easier it is to throw strikes. You have to work on a specific endeavor often and pitchers right now don't do it.

Tommy John, Former major league pitcher

Pitching is a skill activity like golf. It is the act of transferring your weight from one leg to the other, going downhill trying to maximize your velocity and control while trying to hit a target. Why would you spend time doing something that is completely different and cannot help you get better throwing from the mound!

What would help pitchers far more would be to spend more time throwing from the mound while focusing on improving their mechanics while using each pitch as an opportunity to throw with better control and more potential velocity. Pitchers in order to get better and better must throw more game intensity pitches from the mound. That makes sense. Long toss wastes time that pitchers could use to become better pitchers. It's a "pitching potential" killer.

This course course is the next best thing to having a professional pitching coach right there with you everyday whether you are just starting out or are a seasoned pitcher looking for that extra 6-12 mph of velocity.

Far better than wasting money on a camp where you get no one-on-one instruction even if you are lucky enough to get a coach who knows pitching.

This is for parents who want their sons to have every advantage. To make the team, get the scholarship or get drafted.

This Is An Investment In Your Son's Ongoing Baseball Well-being

Does this sound like a lot of money to pay for a complete pitching program? Ask yourself this: what have you invested in equipment or travel baseball? Without proper pitching instruction none of that will help your son perform better. He can have the best equipment and be on the best team but struggle like crazy because he gets poor pitching advice or none at all.

Also how much would you invest to see your son more confident standing on the mound in a tough situation? And if he has a bad game…which he will the sky won't cave in because you will know how to help him and so won't he.

A camp will set you back at least $300 and your son will have nothing to refer back to. And he will get no one-on-one instruction. And he will forget 90% of what was taught within 21 days.

A pitching instructor will cost you a minimum of $500 because your son will need at bare minimum of 10 lessons to get him going…usually many more…if you are lucky enough to get a good instructor. And then you will need some follow up help in the future. So maybe another $500-1500.

And this can go on and on and on.

Velocity Report

Over the past eighteen months I believe we "cracked the code" on how to boost velocity a better way without the endless hype that you find online that is all useless and a waste of time. I explain in detail how velocity is created and then demonstrate with photos using two major league pitchers and how they use what I call the "timing trigger" to go from the back leg to the front leg—the secret to more velocity. One high school lefty got his velocity up from 86-88 mph to 92-94 mph in just two weeks by making a simple adjustment in his delivery. He just got drafted in the 2003 draft by the Braves in the third round.

Bonus #6 -
Mastering Pitching Command—A New Bullpen Routine

Most pitchers at all levels do not know how to throw a bullpen—which may be the single most important priority for building pitching success. With the help a top sports scientist I have put together a bullpen routine that focuses on mastering pitch command. We have found out that you should not throw bullpens using random game situations. That does not work—but our "over-practice/blocked" bullpen routine does work to quickly boost command of the strike zone. Your son will soon be a "glove hitter."

Bonus #7 -
Pitching Articles

- The Myth of Weight Training And Why It Doesn't Lead To More Velocity -

Imagine finding out that your son is wasting his time trying to get better. I have put my money where my mouth is and have hired sports scientists—not other baseball people —to research what works and what doesn't to boost pitching performance. Over 40 pages of sports science articles written by me back up with proof in easy to understand language that any parent or pitcher will understand that "proves" why weight training, long toss, weighted balls, weighted vests or too many drills do not lead to more velocity or boost performance but are destructive for building quality mechanics. Every high school and college pitcher needs to read about why the large majority of weight training after 3-4 weeks is a total waste of time and actually creates more problems and over time reduces velocity because it teaches the body to slow down.

Bonus #8 -
Video Analysis Model

Bonus #9 -
Fast-Track Start-up Guide—How to get started immediately putting the program into action.

If you don't understand how to recognize simple mechanical problems and how to fix them from one year to the next, then you might as well flip a coin about your son's ability to improve. His pitching mechanics will be the foundation of his success as a pitcher.

I have written a 12 page freeze-frame demonstration of pitching mechanics as a companion tool designed to be used with our DVD—How To Video Analyze Any Pitchers Mechanics.

Whenever you video analyze your son you simply pull this out and the 35 freeze frame photos of the major league pitcher with explanations instantly point out to you what you need to fix in your son's delivery. You will use this over and over again through the years every time you videotape your son whether he is 11 or 21.

You will see that these ten free bonuses are worth every penny of the price of the entire program.

I purchased your program and started studying. Built a pitching mound for my son and started his training at 9 ½ years. He just turned 10 yrs. Old. Plays fall baseball in Missouri. Before we started working with your system he had very little control, and when he did throw it over the plate, he was hit and hit hard. Now he has the control he needs (because of working backwards) and his velocity has increased to the point were the other kids can't hit him (we weren't working on velocity, this was a bonus that we got from the mechanics taught in your program) we are always asked what we do with CJ that helps him throw so hard. We point them to your web site. We are also asked if his arm is sore from throwing so hard, our response, never!

This has been one of the greatest investment I have ever made. I know this sounds like an exaggeration, so let me explain. Teaching a 9 or 10 year old can be very frustrating and wear on your patience (especially something as difficult as pitching mechanics) Your program is laid out and explained so well that my son and I are closer than we have ever been before and look forward to practice. I kid you not, he has such a great time pitching, I think at times he's going to start jumping up and down on the mound, and I love the smile. It's not all about the pitching anymore but the thumps up he gives me when he's pitching well."
