STEP 1

Setup

Check your glove, bat, and the space around you. Warm up your shoulders and elbows with an easy game of catch.

STEP 2

Start phase

Start with short, easy throws and catches. Gradually increase your throwing distance and swing effort.

STEP 3

End phase

Finish with easy throws and shoulder stretches. Let your breathing settle, then check your workout duration.

STEP 4

Target muscles

Running, throwing, and batting work your cardiovascular system and whole body. Rotate your legs and torso together to power throws and swings.

STEP 5

Common mistakes

Do not throw at full effort before your shoulder is warmed up. Make sure no one is nearby before you swing the bat.

STEP 6

Breathing

Exhale as you throw or swing instead of holding your breath. Use breaks between plays to settle your breathing.

STEP 7

Coach tip

Record the time spent playing baseball. Do not enter hits, pitch counts, or innings.
