12 Point Bio-Mechanical Analysis: The F/U 12 Point Bio-Mechanical Analysis is a great way to measure up and see if one's biomechanics are up to par. It is mandated to protect a student pitcher from injuries. Analysis is obtained from two or four camera angles (minimum criteria is two camera angles). It is the student pitchers, coaches, certified instructors, or parents’ responsibility to provide video. There is a web camera option available soon. With this critical information, Fastball University will be able to create a plan to address biomechanics flaw, functional instability, or imbalances.

The video clips will consist of velocity enhancing plyometric movements.

Movements for Improvements: F/U Movements for Improvements are a comprehensive series of video clips that address certain biomechanical flaws and timing issues. It will come with keywords and a worksheet to give both the student pitcher and F/U options of which movement frequency. It will monitor good to bad ratio and overall progress.

Talk to a Teacher Program: This service is used to set up a one-on-one conference call to stay in touch, better understand, fix any current issues, etc. Will be able to touch base with our expert staff once a week for as long as needed.
In-Depth Body (Video) Analysis and Functional Strength Test: The F/U In Depth Body (Video) Analysis and Functional Strength Test are a series of video clips that are done by a student pitcher and reviewed by our F/U Kinesiology Department. The testing will exploit any weak links.

It focuses on the following: functional elastic muscle strength, muscle balance, core stability, hip mobility, and muscle and capsular range of motion.
Personnel Corrective Body Building Media Program: This is a customized workout and nutritional regimen specifically for a student pitcher’s needs. It focuses on any imbalances, instabilities, or any lack of functional strength that a student pitcher may have. This program will work in conjunction with the F/U 12-Point Video Analysis and also the F/U Body Analysis. There will be an optional weight loss and weight gain plan done by an F/U nutritionist.

Rehab Program “Cause and Effect: ”Due to the debilitating nature of pitching, the cause and effect works with an online questionnaire and video analysis. There will be a series of video clips that prevent arm injury. These clips will show how exactly the movement needs to be done. There will be a full narrative showing the importance of the movement and what injury it prevents. The cause and effect portion is linked in with the questionnaire and is necessary to answer the why. Example: Why is my bicep hurting? There will be a series of video clips that will show common flaws that lead to overuse of a particular muscle. Program tied in with "Movements for Improvements".
