A systematic throwing program designed to help players and coaches understand what steps must be taken to develop and sustain a strong, durable, accurate, and injury-free arm. The Jaeger throwing program and J-Band exercise routine has been adopted by over 100 professional players, including Cy Young winner Barry Zito, as well as top ranked college and high school programs across the country.
Thrive on Throwing
A must for anyone who is serious about playing Baseball or Softball. The health and longevity of your arm is your lifeline as a ball player. This video will take you through every step of Alan Jaeger's innovative Arm, Health, Strength and Conditioning Program. It will teach you how to strengthen your arm by developing the smaller muscles (rotator cuff) in your shoulder, which are the most vulnerable to injury. Through "arm circles" and a systematic surgical tubing exercise program, the shoulder muscles gain greater range of motion, balance, endurance and stability. It will also teach you how to solidify your mechanics so they become supportive, efficient and consistent. The video concludes with Alan's trademark Long Toss program, a throwing routine that is at the core of developing arm strength, arm speed, release point consistency, and mental focus.
J-Band
A mandatory tool for the health, strength and endurance of your arm strength, the J-band allows you to perform 10 different exercises to strengthen all of the muscle groups in your arm and shoulder. These exercises are demonstrated in the Thrive on Throwing video by Major Leaguers Mike Lieberthal and John Snyder. Plus, you can perform them in the comfort of your own home as effectively as you can on the playing field. Extra or replacement J-Bands are available.

Learn the best long toss program in Major League Baseball! Programs large and small have implemented Alan Jaeger's arm strengthening routines, including the Kansas City Royals, UCLA, University of Arizona (baseball &softball), and Dunedin (FL) High School.
Getting Focused, Staying Focused
A Far Eastern approach to sports and life. Today's athletes spend the majority of their time on physical preparation. But if athletes are going to be successful, they ultimately will need mental tools and strategies to stay focused throughout their physical preparation and performance. Just as a chain will break at it's weakest link, players who lack the skills to stay mentally focused will find that their mental game is their weakest link. All of the physical ability in the world is squandered if the athlete does not have the mind-set to execute these abilities in game situations. Getting Focused, Staying Focused serves as the theme behind all of the Alan Jaeger's training programs. Learn how to use your mind to your advantage rather than to its disadvantage; learn why you must "earn" the mental game through practice like any other skill.
The Picture Perfect Pitcher

This book is dedicated to all who want to look at pitchers properly. Pitchers profiled include Randy Johnson, Greg Maddux, Pedro Martinez, Nolan Ryan and Tom Seaver. This amazing book addresses conventional wisdom and misinformation of pitching and presents the "five absolutes" of pitching a baseball.
