I am 14 years old, and I've been playing on my brothers baseball team since 4th grade. I can throw about 55 MPH, but I would really like to reach 60-62 by the start of the season. What can I do to increase my speed?

Everything is in the mechanics, at 14 you need to start weight training, specially for your legs. You will increase speed if you build strong legs and inprove your throwing form.

the average velocity ranges from 45-60 mph so you look like your in pretty good shape. just work on your mechanics and your legs so you have the power in ur legs to puch off the rubber with a lot of force.

Lean into the pitch more and build up your stanima. Keep on pitching and you will reach your goal, trust me.

long toss, sit-ups, crunches. When doing long toss, always throw from your pitching motion.

Work on your leg muscles more, and long toss more.
Good luck!!! =-)
