## Resource

In this episode of More Than Velocity, we sit down with pitching coach and ArmCare Elite member Lou Kolasky to discuss how to train pitchers smarter, prevent injuries, and maximize performance. Lou, a National Pitching Association (NPA) coach in the Great Lakes region, has worked with some of the top pitchers in the state—helping them refine their mechanics and manage their workload and has developed an elite understanding of the ArmCare technology to keep players healthy and throwing harder. We discuss: - The role of arm strength and balance in pitching performance - How nervous system fatigue impacts training and game-day readiness - Using strength data to individualize player development - How Lou’s training methods have helped produce championship-winning pitchers 🔗 Connect with Lou on X: https://x.com/loukolasky
