Hi again everyone,
I wanted to get some feedback on a strengthening program for my 11 yo DD. As I mentioned in another post, she's very small for her age ... about 4'9" and 80 pounds.
She can reach 2nd base, but it takes her extra time because she really has to get her momentum moving towards second to get it there.
I'm interested in getting her started on a SAFE strengthening program. I will obviously check with her pediatrician too, but I'm curious what strengthening exercises/drills have worked for your girls. We do some long toss, but that's about it currently. I've heard about people using weighted balls, although that worries me a bit. Weights? Strength bands?
Any feedback you guys can provide is appreciated. Thanks!
