You are at home doing everything you can to stay athletic. You are working out (the best you can), getting your reps in, throwing/hitting in the backyard, and filming yourself so that you can make sure you’re not developing bad habits. But as the weeks go by, you continue to see lower throwing and exit velos.
If you’re feeling stressed, you’re not alone. Continue reading “So, Your Velo’s Got the Virus!”
Today, I want to review how to help stabilize and protect pitchers and baseball players’ UCL (also known as the Tommy John ligament) with several exercises we perform here at RPP. Continue reading “How to Protect the Baseball Player’s UCL”
With gyms continuing to be closed all over due to COVID-19, and athletes not having training facilities at their disposal, we are providing PHASE 2 of our programming. Continue reading “3 and 4-Day Programs (w/ and w/o equipment) — Phase 2”

No one could have ever imagined the position that college, high school and even pro baseball would be in at this time. Well with RPP having to close temporarily, I have been quarantined (much like everyone else in the northeast) in the house with my daughter and my wife, trying to figure out 50 new ways to reinvent the wheel. In that time, I keep working on our business, trying to use this downtime to find ways to hit the ground running once we’re all up and around again. Through it all, it’s been great to see the baseball community come together and help young athletes, with “less than optimal” equipment, maintain and continue to build their athleticism.

Please note, this is NOT a ramp-up, on-ramping or customized program. Assuming that you were already prepared after a full off-season for spring, the programs are for maintaining your arm health and capacity. Continue reading “8-Week Baseball Throwing Program — Maintenance”
With gyms closing all over due to COVID-19, and athletes not having training facilities at their disposal, we are providing the following 3-day (minimal equipment) and 4-day (needs equipment) programs. Continue reading “3 and 4-Day Programs (w/ and w/o equipment) — Phase 1”
With gyms closing all over due to COVID-19, and athletes not having training facilities at their disposal, we are providing the following 4-day program to those with access to gym equipment. The workout addresses Speed and Power, the two training residuals that dissipate the quickest (7-14 days).
FYI, don’t get too crazy worrying about max strength losses at this time, you’ve got approximately 30 days before they start to fall off. Hopefully this will help manage training residuals until all systems are “go” again. Continue reading “4-Day Full Body Program (w/ equipment) — Phase 1”
