Rowan Trepicchio, a junior pitcher at Northern Highlands, came into the offseason with a strong foundation and plenty of upside. At approximately 6-foot-1 and 170 pounds, along with an excellent body fat percentage, Rowan already possessed a solid athletic base for his size. Following his baseline assessment, it was clear there was still significant room for growth. With the opportunity to add muscle and improve the physical qualities that support high-level pitching, our work at RPP focused on helping him become more explosive, more efficient, and better equipped to translate his athleticism to the mound. Results speak for themselves. This spring, his peak velo is up 4 mph, T83 and with 32 IP, he’s carrying an ERA of 1.07.

This past off-season, we had the pleasure of working with Lodi High School’s Ryan Reynoso here at RPP, and the early results have been extremely encouraging. Ryan came into the winter at 5’9”, 178 pounds, with 15% body fat, giving us a strong starting point from a body composition standpoint. From there, our goal was to identify the areas that would most impact his athleticism, movement quality, and ability to transfer strength into performance both in the gym and at the plate.

Getting stronger in the off-season to prepare for peak performance on the field is paramount. But just as important is finishing the season as strong as you started. The athletes who maintain their performance throughout the season are the ones who typically see the greatest results. Drops in velocity—both on the mound and at the plate—as well as injuries, are often the result of not training consistently through out the season.

This year, we’ll be highlighting RPP athletes who not only put in the work during the off-season, but who continue to maintain their strength and recovery by training with us 2–3 days per week during the season. We’ll also be sharing current stats, along with year-over-year comparisons, to reinforce how impactful consistent work can be—and what’s possible because of it.
