NEW! "The Combat PitcherTM " High School/College Edition
4 DVD set and Companion Manual
"Preparing the Next Generation of Pitchers for Battle"
|
Coach Ron Wolforth has made a serious and deep study of the elements of physical fitness training for pitching for each age group. His own program of "The Combat Pitcher" and the elements he shares with his writing and instructional media offerings provide the best available direction for today's coaches and those health care professionals involved in baseball at every level of competition. I compliment him on his ongoing search for the most effective and safe methods for increasing the physical fitness of baseball pitchers. These methods provide conditioning that helps prevent injuries, increase the velocity and command of pitches and offer the best chance for the pitcher of any age to more clearly achieve his potential.

We are aware that baseball teams improve by going through an evolutionary progression as they learn, apply, adapt, and learn again. As coaches, we go through a similiar process as we develop our skills as teachers of the game. Ron Wolforth's "Combat Pitcher" Program provides the baseball enthusiast a unique systematic, practical guide to establishing and mastering the steps involved in becoming a total package pitcher. In my opinion, Ron has categorically proven that there is a best way to prepare pitchers. Through years of testing, measuring, evaluating, analyzing, studying, teaching, and quantifying his methodology in the pitching laboratory he has developed a pitcher's toolbox that will help literally any prospect.

"As a physician specializing in alternative medicine, I am quite accustomed to taking the road less traveled. So perhaps it's not too surprising that I was immediately drawn to The Athletic Pitcher™ - a comprehensive, innovative program that effectively side steps the traditional training model. In a world obsessed with the "quick fix", most instructional programs, books and manuals become best sellers by offering quick and easy answers. And while The Athletic Pitcher™ does offer answers, they are rarely quick or easy. They are, however, lasting and purposeful. Because of its more long-term orientation, The Athletic Pitcher™ requires the setting of meaningful, measureable goals - no matter how small. In this way, the young athlete is motivated to keep moving forward."

"You will gain insight on the test and measurement of softball. It helped validate my decisions on player selection and helped me create standards of performance for players/positions at my school. It made me a better teacher/coach. It was far more enjoyable and informative than ANY other clinics I have EVER attended."
