Fix low elbow throw - Help youth baseball players throw correctly. 

Grandpa had a great student and was a great teacher. Dad sitting on the bucket, I feel your pain.

Pure enjoyment watching grandpa and grandson playing catch!

Man, if only more dads would see this video. I love your content.

Great video. I've been trying to correct my 10 year old's mechanics for the last 2 seasons. He started out great but got lazy and developed bad habits. We finally got him corrected again when he got that elbow up and heard the ball smack the glove and saw the difference in his velocity and accuracy.

Simply OUTSTANDING! ALL THE WAY SIR!!!

Just got home from our first post-lockdown 14U tournament. We had 3 pitchers complaining of elbow pain, including my son. That's partially due to their arms not being in shape, but even more due to dropping their elbows. Dropping the elbow is an inferior technique in terms of performance, but it can also lead to pain and even injury, at any age. Do your kid a favor and follow the advice in this video. Teach them the right way the first time, and if they revert to bad habits, get with them to fix it asap. And remember, keep it positive and FUN!

Great video. This helped me with my 7yo

In all fairness, I bet the yelling guy had a kid that was throwing crappy on purpose and being hardheaded. Ive been there

Thanks for this video.

I can’t wait to teach my son/daughter baseball or softball

Great video

Good tips.

Thank you sir

Had my Lat muscles in pain every throw, after a while my Dad said throw it from up high, all the pain in every throw never came back, hallelujah!

I taught my Grandson how to throw. He now throws a bistering hard fastball. He is only 8. I am now having to teach him how to throw just a tad slower so his first basemanl can catch it. He is a second base man. His last game he made a great stop of a hard hit ball...but muff it by throwing a lolipop to his firstbaseman. I told him I would rather see him throw hard than throw a lolipop ball .The Firstbaseman will just learn how to catch it. lol

Instructions start at 2:30

THIS! I know squat about baseball/softball but I have two little girls starting Tball this season with my brother (Who has alot of knowledge) teaching them BUT this is something we haven't worked very much on. Just sitting in the house having them throw beanie babies they are already throwing better!

Wish there was a better angle of the coach making a barrier for that kids elbow. The top angle of the shot leaves it unclear how high the coaches arm is. Is it at the thrower's sternum level or lower?

Pretty rainy today but next nice day im using this video with my 7 year old daughter

The thumbs down thing I didn't really understand. Should have had a visual display of what not and what to do.

I throw the hardest on my team and I’m not saying that to flex I just throw sidearm because of low elbow because I throw hard when I see people low elbow I think I’m doing it right because it’s slow

They also need to learn not to short arm a bad habit my self as a slider pitcher

I'm currently trying to correct my 12 year old niece.

Wish I were the grandpa, unfortunately I'm the guy on the bucket....Only with my own kid though!...

Tik Tok ads suck

Watch that elbow above the shoulder. As a pitcher that will eventually lead to Tommy John. 100 percent. You should delete this video. It’s one thing to toss the ball without any rotation or linear movement. These kids are shot putting the ball. The elbow above the shoulder is not optimal. There are orthopedic doctors on RU-vid addressing little league shoulder. They DO NOT advocate throwing this way. Elbow even with shoulder is fine. Also, The example you showed of the pitcher “getting his elbow up” was actually him moving into a sideways bend to get the ball to the center of the plate. That can lead to back issues.
