The Core Velocity Belt engages your lower-half and naturally loads your body for maximum velocity by separating your hips from your shoulders like a rubber-band, and enhancing arm speed. A great tool safely develop good mechanics and velocity without pushing past your physiological limits.
King of the Hill
Ground Reaction Sports
The King of the Hill trains pitchers to develop a directional force that creates a linear and efficient path towards home plate through engagement of the lower half. Instead of using verbal commands or visual aids, the trainer gives a feeling of directional force towards home plate with a return of an immediate audible feedback signal when done correctly. Players can challenge their ability by turning the lever at the back of the patented spring housing to increase the amount of force is takes to hear the audible feedback signal, which will result in higher velocity and consistent health of the pitching arm.

This is much more convenient to store one of these wrist weights at home instead of several dumbbells. You can simply hold the weight or attach to your wrist if trying to minimize grip after an injury or surgery. We recommend the 5 lb version for youth 12 years and young and the 10 lb version for everyone else.
