Mastering Long Toss: A Guide for Youth Baseball Players

At ProSource Athletic Performance, we believe that mastering the fundamentals is key to any young athlete's success, especially in baseball. That’s why we’ve created a detailed video guide on long toss, a training method essential for developing arm strength and velocity.

In our latest YouTube video, we explore:

  • The Importance of Long Toss:
    Long toss is one of the best ways for youth baseball players to build arm strength. Unlike weighted balls, long toss provides a safe and effective means of developing throwing power.

  • Step-by-Step Instructions:
    We guide you through the proper techniques, starting from close distances and progressing to maximize your throws. This method not only builds strength but also reinforces proper mechanics.

  • Pull Downs:
    Learn about pull downs, where you throw with maximum effort after achieving your maximum distance, to further enhance your throwing power.

  • Training Frequency:
    We recommend long tossing at least once a week, with twice a week being ideal. This consistency will lead to significant improvements in your performance.
