Grip Training for Baseball

Wrist and grip strength for baseball

Whether hitting, pitching or throwing, increased wrist and grip strength are key to playing better baseball.  
  • Hitting: Gain control, boost bat speed, and add the horsepower you need to hit those long balls
  • Pitching and throwing: to increase velocity, accuracy, stamina and protection from injuries, make a balanced grip training program a regular part of your workout

Grip training produces big results without a lot of time or hassle—a few minutes 2 or 3 times a week will produce noticeable gains, and grip training can be done just about anywhere.
