Friday Rehab / Throwing

Today was a long day and my body is feeling pretty beat up and run down. I decided it was a good day to shut it down early, get some rehab and mobility done, and call it good.

Rehab:

The usual, single leg balance, agility drills, bike, some low level plyos, and that's pretty much it.

Used the rehab as a warmup for some open stone work. I'm still throwing OS from asphalt which is a little more comfortable mentally as it's a nice smooth surface. It has a little more grip than I would like and I really have to focus on pre-turning the right and keep it grinding around. I'm really liking the MSA but I have to be careful not to rush into the throw and keep my shoulders back. I was able to hit right at 50' which was great, but I'm still having a mental block with the reverse as that is exactly how my injury occurred. What I end up with is a pitcher's block with the R leg up in the air and a very inefficient release. This is good for getting back in the saddle of throwing, but not great for getting back up in distance.

I will probably begin to add some reverses to my plyos to get some confidence with landing.
