Husband is seeking input

[Crystal Brown]

Normally I am the one looking for input to help DD. To hear him ask to put video up came as a surprise. One of the focus has been long toss.
Side note: She was not too happy about Her cousins talking. LOL

I prefer the long toss be riseball using the walk-in drill on steroids.

I agree with Doug. Dont try and pitch through it. Do a walk through and keep backing up until she cant get it there.

My DD does long toss as a warmup for every workout, practice, and game. Anytime she set foot on the field after she get her core going, it is on to long toss.

DD just started doing long toss this off season. After the long toss she pitched.
In days that she isn't pitching, she is in the gym working out. The goal is to increase speed before school ball.

We will have her do it with the rise ball. Thanks for the input.

One of the primary purposes of throwing long toss is to increase leg drive. Have your DD start @ 2B and throwing two pitches from that distance, take two steps back and throw two more, repeat until she can no longer make it to the catcher. Then reverse the process and take two steps in and throw two pitches until she makes it back to the pitching circle.

If you do this on a regular basis and your DD learns to optimize her leg drive, you should notice that her longest distance will increase over time and the throws on the shorter distances will be more of a rope than a rainbow.
