KEYS TO SUCCESS
To see the most benefits it is essential that each athlete focus on three second count decelerations on every exercise. Most throwing injuries occur during the slow down phase of throwing. By slowing decelerating the arm with resistance these muscle will become stronger and the joint will become more stable throughout explosive movements. Also be conscious of arm slot during every exercise. It is important to squeeze your shoulder blades, staying tall throughout the core, and dynamically rotate through the throwing arm slot. The shoulder stabilization muscles must be trained in the same way competition requires them to perform. FORM IS EVERYTHING. Get started today using the KB Powerbands Shoulder Progression and build a strong throwing arm.
