with Bill Bethea,

associate scout for the Houston Astros

This DVD features cutting edge ideas on pitching mechanics from baseball expert Bill Bethea. This program can make pitchers more athletic and free flowing on the mound. The pitching package includes mechanical theory, weighted ball protocol and philosophy, conditioning and development. The Power Pitching philosophy believes in optimal performance at maximum velocity by pushing pitchers to their next level. Pitchers can find their tempo and rhythm with this specific training. Strategies involved in the rocker step are the step back, chin forward, hands in motion and load up the lower body. The gathering point, hip movement and momentum toward the plate are key teaching points that Bethea focuses on. A secret to increased velocity comes from your hips leading and pushing out. He includes a number of drills to work on those areas. After studying different pitching progams for years, Coach Bethea has come with this well-rounded package.
