Pitching Exercises

There comes days when you are practicing but you have had enough of working on your different pitches. Sometimes you just want to work on maybe getting in better shape and doing drills to improve your pitching. Today I will give you some helpful things to do to improve yourself as a pitcher all around.

The first thing that is always good for a pitcher is to have a lot of endurance. The best way to build up your endurance is to run. After a game you should run at least one lap around the field for every inning you pitched. Although it is also very beneficial sometimes to go and take a 2 or 3 mile run when you can. Being a pitcher your legs are everything so you have to keep them strong.

Another good drill to do is to the mound and pitch a fastball. But after you pitch one you run back to the mound and pitch another ball. You contine doing this for as many mintues as you can and try to stay accurate. When you start getting all over the place it is good idea to take a break and do the drill 2 more times if possible.
