Going from 82 to touching 90 isn’t random.

When Joe started with VeloU last winter, he was topping out at 82, sitting 79 to 81. One year later, he’s touching 90 and heading into the season with a defined pitch profile.

During his on-site evaluation, two things stood out:
• At front foot strike, his elbow sat very low for his arm slot
• His center of mass was drifting forward too early

The decision wasn’t to overhaul his delivery. Joe has a naturally jumpy move down the mound. We didn’t want to remove it. We wanted to organize it.

Remotely, we used abbreviated flip-up positions to bring the elbow closer to shoulder height and clean up alignment at foot strike. We lengthened his leg lift to keep him taller and more patient, which helped control early forward drift.

From a physical standpoint, power output improved as well. That gave the delivery something to work with.
Now he’s living 86 to 88, popping 89 to 90 consistently. His fastball has more sink, he works side to side effectively, and his sweeper and changeup are real weapons.

Heading into the season, the focus is simple: maintain timing and sharpen shapes.
Joe is a strong example of what remote training at VeloU looks like when evaluation is clear and buy-in is real.
Identify the constraint.

Organize the movement.
Build the physical support.
Track the results.
