Description

This is the best throwing training aid in the world.
The ThrowMAX is used for overhand Throwing and it is also used Fastpitch pitchers.
For Fast Pitch Pitchers the ThrowMAX helps keep the arm long and accentuate the wrist snap.
The ThrowMAX also stops the elbow from bending or chicken wing and helps promote a proper arm path for the windmill pitch and a proper follow through after ball release.
How many times have you had to tell your players:
"GET YOUR
ELBOW UP
WHEN YOU THROW!!!"
Players learn by seeing hearing and feeling. If they cannot have all of those factors working for them it's very difficult to understand what a coach is saying. It is even more difficult for them to develop muscle memory for that action. The ThrowMAX is the world's only flexible arm brace made of extremely lightweight material that fits directly on a ballplayers arm. There are 2 hook and loop straps to hold the brace on and 3 flexible polycarbonate bars that supply resistance which provides instant feedback as to the correct and incorrect motion of a player's throwing motion. The brace has a player immediately recognize if they try to shortcut an overhand throw.
How the ThrowMAX works
- Keeps arms at a proper 85-90-degree angle
- Provides Instant feedback
- Creates muscle memory
Wrapping
around the back of the head (pitchers/outfielders), throwing behind the ear (catchers), and dropping the elbow below the shoulder (infielders), are all dangerou
s ways to throw meaning that injury is not far off. With the ThrowMAX, as soon as a players begins to drop their arm, they feel increasing pressure which tells the body to raise the arm up. Essentially the ThrowMAX alters the previous incorrect comfort zones of the throwing arm in order to take the stress off of the ligaments, elbow, growth plates, and shoulder. It helps promote a fluid and relaxed motion (as long as it is worn correctly
How the
ThrowMAX
works for overhand - Baseball
Examples of Poor Mechanics
Dropping the elbow
Leading with the elbow
Inside-out motion/wrapping
Shot-put/pie throwing
This throw looks like a player "flicking" the ball with no power, speed or accuracy behind it.
The elbow is far ahead of the rest of the arm which makes it look like a dragging motion - this puts severe strain on the elbow and shoulder.
In this throw, the arm is usually wrapped around the head and on the forward motion it is brought around the side of the body.
Commonly used by catchers, only the arm is used - this throw also puts alot of strain on the elbow, and shoulder.
