Davies, 2001, Closed kinetic chain exercise (Champaign, IL: Human Kinetics), 21; Adapted from Groppel 1992. E5729/Ellenbecker/Fig. 03c/544962/HR/R1 Mechanics of the Shoulder Baseball Pitching and Throwing Motion The throwing motion is a complex movement pattern that requires flexibility, muscular strength, coordination, synchronicity of muscular firing, and neuromuscular efficiency. The overhead throwing athlete appears to be in fine balance and is a highly skilled individual. The thrower's shoulder must be flexible enough to allow the excessive external rotation required to throw a baseball.
This highlights the important need for biomechanical evaluation in patients presenting with shoulder and elbow dysfunction from throwing a baseball. Adult Versus Youth Baseball Pitchers Although many investigators have studied pitching biomechanics of adult baseball players, relatively little scientific information is available on younger pitchers. Information about young pitchers may be extrapolated from adult pitching studies, but the accuracy of drawn conclusions is unknown. In a study conducted at the American Sports Medicine Institute, kinematics and kinetics of 13 high school pitchers and 13 college pitchers were compared; the results indicated no statistical differences (Fleisig et al.
The follow-through phase lasts 1 second. A long deceleration arc from the throwing arm, combined with forward tilting of the trunk, allows for the dissipation of energy back into the trunk and lower extremities. This absorption of energy throughout the kinetic chain helps reduce the stresses placed on the throwing shoulder. At this point in the follow-through, the stride leg should be straight, supporting almost all of the body’s weight, while the stance leg continues to move upward. Similarly to what occurs in the deceleration phase, the posterior shoulder musculature continues to act eccentrically to decelerate the horizontally adducting shoulder.
