We have been consistent with our Squid Bands and Squid Throws for our pitching warm-ups. We shoot for 60+% strikes from our guys and feel this routine has helped them step onto the mound warm and ready to attack with strikes. We also have our catchers go through this as well. They go through team stretching, dynamic warm-up, throwing, and then peel off from the team to complete the rest of their prep:

Squid Bands (5-7 Reps):

A’s, Y’s, T’s, Pulls, Curls, Int. Rotation, External Rotation

Squid Throws (5 Reps):

Cement Feet, Rockers, Pivot

Pick-offs, Stretch (Pitchers), Squat to Throw Downs

Throwing (5 Reps):

30 Feet, 40 Feet, 50 Feet (all up)

Wind-up, Stretch (all down)
