In this video I identify the 9 Pitching Velocity Killers and explain how you can fix each of the 9 common issues found in the pitching delivery to have maximum success on the mound and pitch faster.

If you have 1, 2, 5, or 7 of these pitching velocity killers, don’t worry, they can all be fixed.  I always recommend starting with the issue that presents itself earliest in the pitching delivery first as sometimes if you clean up the beginning of the delivery, the end of the delivery will work itself out.

With that being said, here are the 9 Pitching Velocity Killers, and how to fix them, that you’ll learn in the video above.
