Baseball Arm Strength

I received the new E-Flex Forearm Bar and I have to tell you... You've done it again! I was highly impressed with the original Pro Series Forearm Bar and it's versatility in training baseball players, but this updated version adds a whole new dimension to preparing my ball players for the demands of the diamond.

It's no secret that forearm strength and power will help batters with more solid contact at the plate, more bat speed through the hitting zone, and greater distance on hits. But until now they have had to change from barbells, to dumbells, to squeezing tennis balls, to buckets of rice. Now you can get superior results with one piece of equipment.

And it works great for pitchers, catchers, and outfielders who need to get every bit of strength in their throws as well. Getting that last explosive snap of the wrist adds that "little something" to throws that would have otherwise not gotten the job done. Add to that the ability to work a pitchers forearm in a "pitching specific" motion of snapping off a curveball or slider and you've got a great tool in your hands.

Simply put, any baseball player that does not train with the forearm bar is not reaching their full potential... Period!

For overall forearm and wrist strength development you must isolate and target the four major muscle groups that make up the forearm

Forearm Flexors - (wrist and grip strength)

Wrist Flexors - (wrist and grip strength)

Extensor Muscles - (elbow and wrist rotation)

Brachioradialis - (acts to flex the forearm at the elbow)

The E-Flex Forearm Bar targets all of these muscle groups.

Barbells target the wrist flexors, forearm flexors and limited engagement of the brachioradialis.

Wrist Rollers target the Forearm Flexors and partially target the Brachioradialis.

Grip Emphasis Devices target the Forearm Flexors with partial engagement of the Wrist Flexors.

What Are Coaches / Scouts Looking For

There are many different attributes coaches and scouts look for at different positions but there is one common denominator that all coaches, collage and pro scouts look for in all players and that is arm strength.

Outfielders:

A strong overhand throw
A straight-line trajectory
Good carry
Good life on the ball when it hits the ground.

Infielders:

For the shortstop and third baseman scouts will pay the most attention to throws made from the Outfield grass from deep short and the foul line at third If a player has a strong arm, it will show here.
They will also look for a straight-line trajectory.

Catching:

A good catcher can catch and throw to second base in under 2.0 seconds; some catchers can break 1.8 seconds. Scout / Coaches are looking for catchers who have a strong arm. And would like to see the throws have carry through at second base, with little if any tailing action on the throw.

Pitching

When scouting a pitcher the first quality a scout will look for is a strong arm and fastball as this is essential to setting up their breaking stuff.

Take Your Arm Strength Routine To A New Level

Strengthening of the arms, including shoulder rotator cuff, biceps, forearms, wrist flexors and grip strength will have a profound effect on your game and is a must for a strong pitching or throwing arm, bat speed and power.

The E-Flex Forearm Bar is a revolutionary patented multi – purpose free-weight apparatus designed specifically with the ball player in mind. The unique leverage mechanics and ergonomics incorporated into this apparatus allow you to build powerful forearms, super strong wrist flexors and grip strength. This bar also allows you to target and isolate the biceps, shoulders and the extensor muscles of the forearms that are responsible for elbow and wrist rotation.

The Patented leverage mechanics incorporated into the Forearm Bar place the weight at a 35 degree angle and on a plane opposed to the gripping hands.

*This increases muscle engagement & efficiency 50 – 60%.

*As compared to barbells, dumbells, wrist rollers & grip emphisis devices.
