Derek Johnson's Pitching Arsenal 2-Pack DVD Set


Baseball Videos offers the Derek Johnson's Pitching Arsenal 2-Pack DVD Set with Coach Derek Johnson of Vanderbilt University. This DVD Set includes: The Complete Throwing Preparation Program and Developing Your Pitching Arsenal and Game Plan. Coach Johnson's instruction has lead to a first round draft of six Vanderbilt students. In 2004 he was the National Pitching Coach of the Year and in 2010 he was the National Assistant Pitching Coach of the Year. Now that you know a little about the coach behind these pitching DVD's here is what you will learn:

In The Complete Throwing Preparation Program: Coach Johnson teaches you a complete throwing program with an explanation and step-by-step video instruction of each exercise. You will learn how to show your pitchers cross symmetry and the two levels you should always work with them. He will also guide you through the exercises for each level to properly warm up your pitcher. You will then learn foam rolling exercises for muscle recovery and which exercises will help with mobility and help reduce aches and pains from constant practice and competition.

Vanderbilt pitchers have 10 stretches that they do before throwing practice. Coach Johnson will walk you through these stretches including the "No Money" and the "Tea Cups", which is a martial arts inspired move. He will break down the correct vs. incorrect way to do each stretch and will discuss arm injures that can occur and the ways you may prevent them through stretches.

To finish up your Vanderbilt pitching practice warm ups reach into Coach Johnson's "tool shed" and find a collection of mobility and quick feet drills.

In the Complete Daily Throwing Program Pitching DVD Johnson also gives three types of pitching programs. Then through video explanation he will you discuss time, distance, how to become a better pitcher and gain a stronger pitching arm through precise throwing drills. The "Long Toss Program" builds increased arm strength while the "Easy Long Toss Program" is used to massage and stretch out the arm. You will also be introduced to "Compression Throwing". Coach Johnson uses this to develop Vanderbilt's velocity and skill work. This process is done at the end of each throwing program.

Coach Johnson's proven approach to warming up pitchers by working form the initial catch play, through focused long toss and back to compression throws, will help any pitching team improve. Your pitchers will gain arm speed and arm strength while also improving there overall skills and team work.

Developing Your Pitching Arsenal and Game Plan: Derek Johnson gives you an in depth lecture-style presentation showing you how a pitcher dominates a game from start to finish. He has strategies and a game plan for success at any level. Not to mention this award winning coach has an armory full of pitches that he reveals to you in the Developing Your Pitching and Game Plan Pitching DVD.

Vanderbilt University Pitching team has a philosophy called "Fearless in the Zone". Coach Johnson explains that every pitcher on his staff needs to understand this philosophy because it will instill how many pitches you need to master to be a dominant pitcher at any level. It will also teach your team how to build a plan around your pitcher's strengths and how and when to make adjustments when necessary.

Johnson addresses such questions as:

- How to develop your basic plan against right-handed hitters and left-handed hitters

- How to know if you're on the side of the rubber that's right for you

- How to determine what pitches you can throw due to your natural arm slot

Next, Coach Johnson takes you through a thorough demonstration on the 2-seam fastball, 4-seam fastball, curveball, change-up, slider and split finger pitches. He shows how to grip the ball for each pitch and that even a minor adjustment can change the movement and velocity of the pitch. What side of the rubber to pitch from, how and why spacing your finger placement is important and that it can impact the velocity and movement of the ball are all examined in this pitching DVD.

Then, Coach Johnson takes you through the three P's for your pitching plan, what to do if a hitter gets comfortable, and how to attack a hitter in four different counts: early, ahead, behind, and even. Finally, Johnson talks about different situations: how to pitch early in a game vs. late in a game, what to look for when reading a hitter and how to set up a plan accordingly.

This pitching DVD set is a great addition for any team. It will improve your overall game after a practice or two. Don't pass this up!
