			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-1255" style="float:right; margin:5px;" title="2110338793_d6f1884366" src="http://up.topvelocity.net/uploads/2009/02/2110338793_d6f1884366-150x150.jpg" alt="2110338793_d6f1884366" width="150" height="150" />Using illegal steroids and growth hormone (GH) injections to increase your levels of testosterone and GH, has more bad side effects than positive returns. This is why I speak against these illegal drugs. Through proper strength and conditioning, an athlete can naturally stimulate their bodies testosterone and GH levels. The reason for athletes increasing these levels is to grow bigger, stronger, faster, which means your body is healing faster than it is breaking down. This is very beneficial for pitchers, because quicker recovery between appearances, will result in more velocity, better consistency and less chance of injury. This is why the Michell Report was full of professional pitchers using these illegal substances. These pro pitchers were looking for the hormonal edge but going at it in the wrong direction. Thank you to the strength and conditioning world, we have now learned that the hormonal edge can be obtained naturally, through a proper strength and conditioning program.<span id="more-1254"></span></p>
<p>I am not talking about hormone levels like body builders talk about hormone levels. I am speaking for athletes who are always looking to grow more athletic. Your hormone levels are a major component to your athletic ability, so it is essential that you learn about your Endocrine System. The chart below comes from the National Strength and Conditioning Association. This chart describes how to manipulate your hormone levels naturally to gain athletic benefits.</p>
<table style="border:1px solid #000;" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="padding:5px;" colspan="2" bgcolor="#000000">
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ffffff;">How Can Athletes Manipulate the Endocrine System with Resistance Training?</span></h2>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="padding:5px;" width="50%" valign="top" bgcolor="#cccccc"><strong>General Concepts</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>The more muscle fibers recruited for an exercise, the greater the extent of potential remodeling process in the whole muscle.</li>
<li>Only muscle fibers activated by resistance training are subject to adaptation, including hormonal adaptations to stress.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>To Increase Serum Testosterone Concentrations</strong></p>
<p>Serum testosterone concentrations have been shown to increase by using these methods independently or in various combinations.</p>
<ul>
<li>Large muscle group exercises (e.g., deadlift, power clean, squats)</li>
<li>Heavy resistance (85% to 95% of 1RM)</li>
<li>Moderate to high volume of exercise, achieved with multiple sets or multiple exercises</li>
<li>Short rest intervals (30-60 seconds)</li>
</ul>
</td>
<td style="padding:5px;" width="50%" bgcolor="#cccccc"><strong>To Increase Growth Hormone Levels</strong></p>
<p>Growth hormone levels have been shown to increase by using either of these methods or both in combination.</p>
<ul>
<li>Use workouts with higher lactate concentrations and associated acid-base disruptions; that is, use high intensity (10RM, or heavy resistance) with three sets of each exercise (high total work) and short (1-minute) rest periods.</li>
<li>Supplement diet with carbohydrate and protein before and after workouts.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>To Optimize Responses of Adrenal Hormones</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Use high volume, large muscle groups, and short rest periods, but vary the training protocol and the rest period length and volume to allow the adrenal gland to engage in recovery processes (secreting less cortisol) and to prevent chronic catabolic responses of cortisol. This way the stress of the exercises will not result in overuse or over training.</li>
</ul>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>What this chart teaches us athletes is that performing lifts that recruit major muscle groups and as many muscle fibers as possible, will cause more muscle fiber damage overall. In return the body is forced to heal this massiveÃ‚Â  event of controlled muscle damage as quickly as possible, to prevent damage from continuing. The body then sends out and army of natural occurring anabolic hormones to heal up the damaged muscle fibers.To make sure this event doesn&#8217;t continue, the body builds more muscle fibers for future events.</p>
<p>The difference in training muscles without recruiting as many groups of muscle fibers per repetition, like with aerobic conditioning or light weight training, is the body dumps only a small about of testosterone and GH to heal the small amount of damage. This is why body builders are bigger and more powerful than long distance runners.</p>
<p>To take advantage of this new information, it is important that you train smart. Training smart is not going one extreme to the other. So DO NOT take off with this new information and start throwing on weight that you can&#8217;t handle and perform 1-2 reps a set. That is unsafe. Just like pitching everything must be controlled and you must make small adjustments for a healthy career. This information should motivate you to start working for quality lifts instead of quantity. Another important piece of advice is not to take this mentality of bigger, stronger, faster into the weight room while in season. This is an off season mentality only.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I don&#8217;t mean to mislead you with the title. Some of you may have expected the first sentence to be, &#8220;Study proves that Pitchers are more prone to violent behavior.&#8221; This may be true for athletes but this isn&#8217;t what I am writing about in this article.<br />
<span id="more-492"></span></p>
<p style="float:left;margin:5px;"><!--adsense--></p>
<p>I am writing about &#8220;Violence,&#8221; the way I would write about &#8220;Power&#8221; in the pitching delivery. I use the word &#8220;Violence&#8221; to make a point. Before I attempt to make the point let&#8217;s look at the definition.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Define Violence:</strong> Violence is the exertion of physical force so as to injure or abuse.</p></blockquote>
<p>Now why would I want to use the word &#8220;Violence&#8221; to make a point about something as delicate as pitching? The same reason companies use the word &#8220;Maximum Strength&#8221; to describe something as delicate as medicine.  Jerry Sienfeld has some great comedy on this topic.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>Some people aren&#8217;t satisfied with &#8220;extra&#8221;, they want &#8220;maximum&#8221;! &#8220;Gimme the maximum strength ! Give me the maximum allowable human dosage ! That&#8217;s the kind of pain I&#8217;m in!</em></p>
<p><em>Figure out what will kill me, and then back it off a little bit&#8221;.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Very funny stuff but their is some truth in this joke. This is what makes it a great joke. The truth is, <em>&#8220;Figure out what will kill me, and then back it off a little bit&#8221;, </em>this actually works in the medical field. This is why morphine is still used today.</p>
<p>So lets take this philosphy and use it with pitching or any sport specific event. As pitchers, let&#8217;s learn how to exert as much force to our body WITHOUT causing injury. Now, let&#8217;s be careful here because your one body is all you have. So you better educate yourself like a doctor would do in his career, before pushing your body to its limit. To educate yourself you need to use a website like this to learn everything you can about good mechanics and how to develop an athletic physique. Not until you have established an above average understanding of &#8220;Physic driven Mechanics,&#8221; and have developed optimal strength, should you push your body to the limit.  I am serious. If you push too hard, too soon, you could seriously damage yourself. I did!</p>
<p>The way &#8220;Violence&#8221; in your delivery will help you, is if you use it at the correct time. Science has shown, that the speed of rotation from hips to shoulders, is in direct correlation to the velocity of the pitch. This means if you have good &#8220;<a href="http://topvelocity.net/what-is-top-velocity/">Separation</a>&#8221; in your hips to shoulders at front foot strike, then adding more violence to the rotation of these two pivots will increase your velocity. This video of Edison Volquez illustrates this point.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/h0yyyTxmfU8&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/h0yyyTxmfU8&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-493" style="float:right;margin:5px;" title="73455780SD010_Kansas_City_R" src="http://up.topvelocity.net/uploads/2008/11/610x-300x223.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="223" />You can see the &#8220;Violence&#8221; in his delivery. He is pushing his body to its limits to achieve his maximum velocity. The longevity of his career rides in his mechanics. Does he have good enough mecahnics to prevent his wear and tear from exceeding his recovery rate between pitching appearances.</p>
<p>This is the name of the game in Pro ball. You may not realize this at the level you are now, so this is why I am giving you this information. If you want to play pro ball one day you need to start learning as much as you can about your body. My advice to you is, you must first train your body to handle this stress before you subject it to this stress. Also, remember drugs will always tempt you because of their healing powers but in the long term your body will last longer if you learn to do it naturally.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="color: #ff0000; text-align: center; font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold;">What is the TOP Pitching Program in the World for Gaining Velocity?</p>
<p style="color: #ff0000; text-align: center; font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold;">THE ACE PITCHER HANDBOOK</p>
<div style="width: 100%; margin: 0px 0px 0px 100px;"><a href="#add-to-cart"><img class="size-full wp-image-2732 aligncenter" title="ace-pitcher-handbook" src="http://up.topvelocity.net/uploads/2011/02/ace-pitcher-handbook.jpg" alt="Ace Pitcher Handbook" width="395" height="361" border="0" /></a></div>
<p style="text-align: center; font-size: 20px;"><strong>ADD 5 &#8211; 10 MPH TO YOUR FASTBALL IN 16 WEEKS OR LESS . . .</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center; font-size: 20px;"><strong>DON’T LISTEN TO THE HATERS. YOU WILL THROW HARDER..A LOT HARDER.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center; font-size: 20px;"><strong>I GUARANTEE IT!</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>This program is proven to add 5-10 MPH on your Fastball.The Ace Pitcher Handbook is THE training guide to the brand new – cutting edge <a href="http://www.topvelocity.net/3xpitching/">3X PITCHING</a> approach to velocity enhancement!</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><em>&#8220;This handbook includes all of the valuable information that I collected, discovered and used to overcome shoulder surgery, pitch in professional baseball and top out at 94 MPH after doctors told me I would never pitch again.&#8221;</em></strong></p>
<p><span id="more-58"></span></p>
<div style="border: solid 1px black; background: #e2e2e2; padding: 20px;">
<p><strong>To the dedicated Pitcher,</strong></p>
<p>I have one question for you:</p>
<p>1. Have you ever wondered why, no matter what mechanical adjustments you make or how hard you train or which programs you follow, you still have just “average velocity”, or even worse&#8230;poor velocity?</p>
<p><strong>If this is true, then you&#8217;ve come to the right place.</strong></p>
<p>You see, on the very page you&#8217;re reading at this very moment, I&#8217;m going to reveal to you the one reason why every velocity enhancement program you’ve used up to this point has never worked for you.</p>
<p>And then, I’m going to tell you about the most important “velocity enhancement” solution ever discovered to transform you way beyond “poor” or even “average velocity” to the exact place you want to be, 90+MPH.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>WARNING: This is NOT a gimmick—if you’re simply looking for another “hypey”, quick fix, then I’m afraid you are NOT on the right website. But, if you’re looking for REAL solutions founded on REAL discoveries and cutting-edge strategies, then the information I’m about to share with you may be the most important velocity enhancement program you’ve ever followed.</strong></span></p>
</div>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">The Problem:</span> Conventional Wisdom</h2>
<p>Conventional wisdom are beliefs that are widely accepted but may not always produce the desired results. There are pitching coaches all over this country who have different levels of experience, from the pro levels to no experience at all. The problem is not their experience but the information they are teaching you.</p>
<p>Coaches who use conventional wisdom to coach pitching mechanics cause more problems than good. Arm injuries have gone up 700% in the past 10 years. The majority of high school and college pitchers have poor leg and core strength, along with poor mechanics. Here are some common coaching tips of conventional wisdom which may be the reason you are not getting better or staying healthy.</p>
<p><strong>Common Coaching Tips of Conventional Wisdom:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>&#8220;Get on Top of the ball.&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;Finish out front.&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;Bend your back.&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;Break your hands later.&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;Elbows to the sky.&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;Lift your leg high.&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;Pull down to release.&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;Get your elbow up early.&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;Point your Glove&#8221;</li>
<li>and my favorite, when all else fails, &#8220;Just Through Strikes!&#8221;</li>
</ul>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">The Truth:</span> The Pitching Mechanics that you have been taught along with your training program is making you WORSE!</h2>
<p>If the above conventional wisdom phrases are all too common to you then you have been the victim of conventional wisdom. This is why you have average to below average velocity. This is why you may experience chronic arm soreness or have had an arm injury. This approach to pitching will not make you better. It could most likely end your pitching career short of you reaching your goals.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="#add-to-cart"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1572" style="float: right; margin: 5px;" title="BuyNow" src="http://up.topvelocity.net/uploads/2009/06/BuyNow.jpg" alt="" width="191" height="191" border="0" /></a>The Solution:</span> The Ace Pitcher Handbook.</h2>
<p>I was in the same position you were in my career. The problem was, I was having arm surgery and doctors where telling me my career was over. What I learned was that conventional wisdom had failed me along with all of my previous coaches. I knew like you that I needed answers and I needed them fast.</p>
<p>This is when I discover and developed <strong>3X Pitching</strong> and <strong>the Ace Pitcher Handbook</strong>. Without this information my career would have ended at this point in my life. With this information and the training programs, my career was saved. It helped me not only reach my velocity goal of 94 MPH but it helped me play minor league baseball.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000; font-size: 18px;">How would it feel to be above 90MPH?</span></strong></p>
<p>To get there, you must move away from conventional wisdom and the coaches who teach it and open yourself up to the latest scientific information that has revolutionized sports and sport performance. You also need to be willing to look into other sports for answers and not just baseball. This is the approach I took when I discovered and developed the Ace Pitcher Handbook. This is also a similar approach that the legendary Jim &#8220;The Rookie&#8221; Morris took when he overcame 9 arm surgeries to throw 99mph and play Major League Baseball. Listen to the interview I had with Jim here:</p>

<p style="text-align: center; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold;">Enter The 21st Century Solution to Velocity:</p>
<p style="text-align: center; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Introducing the Ace Pitcher Handbook </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><em>Do you want to throw 90+MPH?</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Do you want to intimidate hitters with your fastball?</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Do you want to make scouts notice you?</em></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Then the Ace Pitcher Handbook is the velocity training manual that you need!</strong></p>
<p>The Ace Pitcher Handbook has over 10 years of experience and knowledge of what it takes to increase the level of your game to that of a professional athlete. This handbook focuses on Velocity because Velocity is what gets your foot in the door. It is the single component that all scouts use to assess the value of a pitcher.</p>
<p>Why waste your time buying anything else to increase your performance than a handbook that has all of the answers and the programs listed in the manual are what I used to beat all of the odds? If you are someone who loves the game but needs some more juice in your fastball then you must purchase this book.</p>

<p><em>&#8220;Daniel Pitfield signs with the Spring Hill College Badgers for the new season.&#8221; </em>www.shcbadgers.com</p>
<p>&#8220;<em>Daniel will be a starter this season and is a valuable addition to the team.</em>&#8220;<strong> Coach Frank Sims SHC</strong></p>
<p>Daniel Pitfield never stopped chasing his dream, even after being cut every year from his high school Baseball team. After he graduated from high school, Daniel Pitfield trained long and hard for one more chance at his dreams. He was selected to play with AIST at the Prague Baseball Week Tournament in Prague Czech Republic. He beat the Czech Republic National team to win the Prague Baseball Week. ESPN pick the Prague Baseball Week as #7 of the top 10 Ultimate Baseball Experiences in the World. Coach Franks Sims was the head coach and was so impressed by Daniel&#8217;s ability, that he signed him to an athletic scholarship to play for the Badgers the next season. Daniel is currently a freshman starter for the Badgers&#8230;&#8230;</p>

<p>What if Daniel would have settled or been satisfied with never making his high school baseball team because of his poor velocity? He would have spent the rest of his life wondering&#8230;what if! Instead he committed to 3X Pitching with the Ace Pitcher Handbook and gained an amazing 10mph in 6 months. This is what got him the opportunity to show his skills in Prague, which earned him a very expensive athletic scholarship to a well respected college.</p>

<p><em>&#8220;Josh Favaloro Signs with </em>Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College<em>.&#8221; </em>www.thesttammanynews.com</p>
<p>&#8220;<em>Josh is a talented athlete. We are looking for him to pitch and play the outfield.</em>&#8221; Coach Gary Rath MGCCC</p>
<p>Josh Favaloro, RHP Northlake Christian HS (LA). He was named to Top Prospect List in the Fall Louisiana Showcase. He was also first team all District his Junior year. He is going into his senior season.</p>
<p>When Josh started <strong>3X Pitching </strong>with the Ace Pitcher Handbook, he was mid to high 70&#8242;s and was changing schools in hope he would get a better chance to play high school baseball. By the end of 3X Pitching with the Ace Pitcher Handbook, Josh was mid to high 80&#8242;s and his coach said he saw him hit 90 a few times. He is currently the Ace Pitcher at Northlake Christian High School for his senior season.</p>
</div>
<p>Josh was concerned about his chance to play high school baseball when he first started the program, better yet he never thought he would be playing college baseball one day. When his fastball increased over 10mph with 3X Pitching many doors flew open for him, and he is still reaping the benefits of the velocity gains today. This program gave him the boost that he needed to not only become the Ace Pitcher on his high school team, but it got him a scholarship to play college baseball, even before going into his senior year.</p>
