I had the opportunity to spend time with my Tom House Sports and National Pitching family in Arizona last weekend. Worked with athletes ranging from MLB pitchers, collegiate, high school on down. National Pitching is an amazing group of people. Honored to be part of the family.
Warm-up to throw, never throw to warm-up. You cannot 'stretch' a mobile joint, so stop using those old static stretch routines from the past. Our dynamic warm-up is used and trusted by the best in the world.

At Tom House Sports & National Pitching we didn’t “invent” our bio mechanical model rather spent decades researching how the human body throws objects most efficiently! As you can see, the best have been doing this a very long time.EYES LEVEL,GLOVE IN FRONT & DRAG YOUR BACK FOOT!

Invest in the time at older age groups to teach pitchers/catchers to call there own pitches. It empowers the player to experiment, places accountability on the bump, and allows athletes to improve through trial & error.
Dear coaches who insist on calling pitches from the dugout:
• You should be checking in with your starting pitcher after their pre game bullpen to see how they are feeling. What they feel comfortable with and how everything else is feeling.
• Make sure you are aware of all the
Train for your goals year round. If pitching is your dream, be sure to continue training and throwing year round.
Take breaks from games and the mound but don’t take breaks that will set back your mechanics, arm strength and arm speed. More in the blog below 👇

Why Juco? 100% scholarship (most cases) vs 25% scholarship. 2 seasons (fall and spring), immediate playing time (most cases), smaller classes, less restrictions on coach's time spent with players, draft-4-year options open, learn to grind.
I am excited to announce that I will be continuing my academic and baseball career at The University of Michigan-Dearborn! I would like to thank my family, all of my coaches, and everybody who has helped me along the way. Go Blue!

When you come to these clinics, there’s a lot of hands on training happening with all the coaches there.
Athletes don’t just show up and get a tshirt.
Every single athlete gets seen & taught something from a coach.

100% agree. "Follow Through" is a non-teach. Solid process will lead to desired outcome. National Pitching teaches our athletes proper mechanics before you release the baseball to achieve the desired outcome after you let go...

Two of the more important lessons we have learned from 40+ years of health first research: 1) you have to get your shoulders burning before picking up a ball; 2) Don’t be afraid of looking weird (any thrower, any level)

@tomhouse
Tom House is not a traditional thinker.
He looks at failure as a positive, even embraces it. He trusts process over results. In fact, at the younger levels of sports, he thinks the outcome of games is irrelevant.
House has a lot more to say ➡
“If throwing is the reason why you need recovery, then throwing can’t be your recovery. Think of your arm like a bank account. Every time you let go of something, it’s money coming out. Every time you hang on to something, it’s money coming in.”
@DeanDoxakisNPA
Incorporate this framework into your career and success will follow:
• Starting (the hardest part)
• Acknowledging you will fail along the way
• Growing and iterating daily
• Recognizing larger trends
• Prioritizing the success of other people
• Sharing the lessons learned
100% agree. Without open communication, players create their own narrative in an attempt to read the mind of the coaching staff. The coaching staff is responsible for creating an environment for success.
@NPA_Pitching
@TeamMSTRD
@DeanDoxakisNPA
Team politics and drama stem from a lack of communication around goals and how performance is valued. Build open lines of communication early and often to improve the experience for players, parents and coaches.
Another great weekend of baseball! Finished 5-0-1 and took home the 17U/18U Eastern Michigan/Oakland University tournament championship. Bats were red hot all weekend against some really talented ball clubs.

Grateful to be part of the Ark Rival Grand Opening Pitching clinic this past weekend! Outstanding facility and training staff in the Port Huron area.

What Port Huron has now, is something we dreamt about while we started our careers. This facility will leave a HUGE impact for generations. I couldn’t be happier for the area. It was a pleasure to even be asked to be apart of this special day.
My 3 Coaching Principles:
1) Positivity is the only choice
2) Help as many people as you can
3) Emphatically believe in those who want to reach their potential
We have some great facility partners for our upcoming clinic in Michigan, and

I watched the game…3 things contribute to keeping a pitcher’s arm healthy: Workload, biomechanics efficiency & functional strength. A HS age athlete w/ this workload is why there is a surge in arm injuries in the age group.

Flex, don’t stretch mobile joints! Think push, not pull.
@NPA_Pitching
training blocks eliminate stretching, and replace it with flexing and isometric body weight work.
See more on our free videos, look for the title “Never Stretch Your Shoulder”.
