"Kyle the only guys making sense here are Coach Ayres and Chaz Henry. It sounds like you were using too much arm and not allowing you lower body do the work, so your shoulder has become the point of overcompensation. Use the video, but it is critical…"

"I agree basically with Coach Ayers about the lower body supplies the power and the upper body controls the ball but you can relieve a lot of the pressure on your throwing arm by being a two armed pitcher instead of just using the one you throw with.…"

"DaCoach: I agree with Coach Ayres. Your body throws the ball and the arm only guides and releases the ball. I suggest to stride straight to the plate with an extended stride, the same length in inches as your actual height. Nolan Ryans' stride…"

"Martin, do you curl your wrist around the ball before releasing it? This is an enabler to short arming. Try pointing your wrist away from you before bringing your arm forward. You don't need to go through the entire wind up to practice. Just…"

Mechanics

I'm a Pitcher 2 years removed from Labrum surgery.  Problem is 3 Years before I had the surgery I coped with my shoulder problems by tinkering with my mechanics and i would severly short-arm the ball.  Now as you all know Muscle Memory is big with Pitching, and I'm looking for ways to help get my arm extended and out in front of my body instead of short-arming as it really takes a toll on my velocity.Thanks!See More
