In-House Pitching & Lifting Program

IN-HOUSE PITCHING & LIFTING PROGRAMS

HIGH INTENSITY CUSTOM PROGRAMS

Henry Leslie

I heard about DevX through a teammate who gained a ton of velo. I drive 8 hours to see Coach Mike every week and do the Remote Training Program. It has truly changed my life.

The Ultimate Training Experience for Pitchers

The average pitcher in our program gains just under 3 mph in the first 6 weeks. Many of our athletes have gained up to 10 mph in a single year. Beyond pure velocity development, our in-house programs are designed to improve your accuracy, movement, mental skills, health, and overall performance.

Custom Throwing Program

Our specific throwing protocols are designed based on your strengths, weakness, and goals. We tailor each individual's drill work, catch play, and mound work based on the information we get from their evaluation, and observations we make along the way.

Data Capture & Analysis

Throughout your training at DevX, we continue to track your progress with data. Whether it's your velocity numbers, advanced pitch metrics, weight room numbers, or your weight itself; tracking progress over time allows us to make the proper adjustments and ensure you are continuing to progress.

In-Depth Evaluation

Our comprehensive player assessment process is a vital component of how we will craft your throwing, lifting, and mobility protocols. Each component provides us with valuable insights we use to design the optimal program.

Movement Assessment: Addresses your movement quality, and what type of limitations you might have with your mobility.

Fitness Evaluation: Helps identify any weakness or imbalances you might have related to strength and power.

Mechanical Breakdown: We do a complete breakdown of your delivery to discover any red flags or areas of concern within your mechanics.

Pitch Design Analysis: Using our Trackman, we capture extensive data on each of your pitches. We then perform an analysis on your pitch arsenal to identify any weaknesses or missing links.

Custom Strength & Conditioning Program

Our strength & conditioning program is designed to optimize your body for elite performance. We use resistance training, plyometric, power training, and agility training to transform you into a high velocity athlete.

Video Analysis

There is so much going on in such little time during the pitching delivery that it's impossible to identify most mechanical issues with the naked eye. During our drill work and mound work, we are consistently using high-speed video you identify problems and work to correct them.

On-Site Instruction

Each of our pitching coaches are trained using the same concepts and methods that are used in Major League Baseball. They are experts in pitching mechanics, pitch design, pitch psychology, and fitness. Whether you're in the weight room, on the mound, or doing your drill work, there are always coaches on-site to answer questions, and help you get the most out of each training session.

FAQ's

Any pitcher from 8th grade to the Professional level who wants to put themselves in the optimal position to reach their potential. We train athletes of all skill levels as long as they are willing to put in the effort it takes to succeed. If you're willing to put in the work, you will be amazed at what you can accomplish.

Our In-House Programs are perfect for any time of the year, except during your High School or College Spring Season. If you're playing Spring Ball for High School or College, it is recommended that you do our Remote Training Program because you simply won't have the time to come to the facility every day.

Depending on the time of the year and what you're goals are, we have multiple different training phases that make the most sense for that given time.

Showcase Prep Phase

If you're playing competitive baseball during the Summer or Fall, it's likely that you should do a Showcase Prep Phase. During this phase, we design your program to prepare you to be at the top of your game for every tournament or showcase, while continuing you improve your body and skills. This involves a mid-week bullpen, a touch up pen on Friday's, and recovery days in between. Your lifting phase will be centered around maintaining your current strength while still staying fresh for competition. We can adjust this plan week to week depending on your schedule and what makes the most sense for your development.

Velo Phase

If you aren't playing competitively and are in the middle of an off-season, it is the best time to focus on velocity with a Velo Phase. This involves high intensity throwing twice a week with recovery days and medium intent days in between. You will also do 3 day's/week of high intensity strength and conditioning to put on size and power. This is the time of year where you will see the most gains and should be taken advantage of.

Pre-Season Phase

When competition is around the corner, we tend to transition from a Velo Phase to a Pre-Season phase where we transition our focus more on the mound to get your pitch count up in time for the season. After blending to the mound, we increase your pitch count week to week in full intent bullpens. This is where we place an emphasis on pitch design, accuracy, and building stamina.

The very first pitcher we built a program for was cut from his Freshman High School team, topping out at 70 mph. A blessing in disguise, he was able to train with us for the next 9 months to prepare for a sophomore comeback.

His Progression the next 9 months:

Evaluation Peak Velocity - 70mph (cut from Freshman team)

2 months in - 75 mph

4 months in - 80 mph

6 months in - 83 mph

8 months in - 86 mph

9 months in - 88 mph (sub 2.00 era on his Varsity team as a Sophomore)

We have since gone on to work with hundreds of High School, College, and Professional pitchers to help them pursue their dreams. Development isn’t always linear and you will hit a plateau at some point, but with helpful guidance from experts in the latest methods of pitching development, you can continue on your journey with confidence.

Each of the Training Options include the same Pitching and Lifting program.

The Shohei 2-Way Player Club also includes Unlimited Cage Rentals and Private Hitting Lessons for two-way players.

The Special Access Pitching Program includes the same Program as the College Prep Pitching Program, except you will be working with a coach 1 on 1 for your 3 Medium/High Intent throwing days each week.
