Hey, I was wondering if someone who knows what they are talking about (kc86 for example) could help me with getting a weekly workout situated. I have an idea of the stuff I’d like to do, but I also KNOW they are things I am missing and parts of my body that are important for pitching that would get neglected.
I am 17, 6’2", and about 180 lbs. By looking at me I look average in terms of weight and everything, but I am probably below average in terms of strength and I definitly have more fat than a typical athlete. I dont have a good “base” is a good way of putting it I guess.
I really only have access to dumbbells in terms of equipment, but I am interested in doing running, pushups, and different style crunches (weighted, oblique, etc.). I know a pitcher shouldnt be “jacked”, but still tone and strong, neither of which I currently am.
I am thinking along the lines of hammer curls, concentration curls, tricep kickbacks, reverse forearm curls, lunges, calf raises, squats, deadlifts, sprints, running full laps, and Mr. Ellis’ 5 lb. program…and whatever it is that someone smart thinks is good!
I am looking for a way to incorporate workouts into a single week that would affect my entire body. I really dont know where to begin though! Could anyone help me set a weekly schedule with the stuff I listed as well as anything you think is beneficial??
Thanks, Jay.
