COACHING TOOLBOX

The BDG Throwing Program Builder is a fantastic, easy-to-use tool to help coaches, parents and players build more organized, professional throwing programs and help coaches manage throwing loads & programming for their teams. Obviously, managing workloads for pitchers is top of mind with coaches, from the professional ranks on down through youth baseball. While you can fairly easily manage and control in game workloads, between bullpen sessions, weighted ball work, flat grounds, long toss, etc., how do you build a throwing program and keep track of the program your players to prevent over and under loads and help stave off injuries? The throwing program builder provides you a professional-looking, convenient, standardized way to build and track your program. Far from a cookie-cutter approach, it’s fully customizable, and gives you much needed insight into the individualized workload of the pitchers on your staff. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to build and manage a throwing program for pitchers.

“In a facility like ours that utilizes data-driven testing, we can be tracking performance metrics on as many as 20-30 athletes at any given time. While testing is imperative, keeping it organized is even more so. Dr. Osterer has done a great job of creating a “home” for all of this information in a locked -and-loaded, easy to use format.”

The Throwing Program Builder from BDG is a no brainer for coaches looking to individualize their athlete’s development.  Coaches can streamline the throwing process with an incredible database of movement drills and skills that BDG has pre-built into the card.  From there coaches have the power to quickly, and efficiently build one of a kind throwing programs to the needs of the individual.
