Top Tweets for #Longtoss

Every pitcher is different — different history, body, workload, and arm response. Yet long toss programs rarely reflect that. Most measure distance and call it progress, overlooking the real variables: intent, arc, and the athlete’s own injury history, stature, and individualized baseline metrics. Long toss can serve completely different purposes that can’t be fully understood through just distance — from rebuilding rhythm, connection, and recovery to challenging the arm under controlled stress. Let’s not have athletes report “I went out to 180 today”, but rather, “I worked out to 180 with a level 3 arc, to make sure I’m in sync and in the green tomorrow for game day.” When individualized, understood, and communicated simply to players, long toss becomes a cornerstone of development and workload management for coaches — not just a guessing game. #PitchSafe
