POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Everyone (including us) posts on everything involving pitching development, tools, drills, cues, pitch design, psychology, strength training, arm care, mobility, workload, etc…
But rarely do we talk about the trends we see in the majority of our most successful athletes. There are 3 values that we live by here @ascent.athlete that we find in those who make the biggest gains and truly understand what it takes to get to the next level

1. Commitment. Commitment comes in many shapes and sizes like discipline, consistency, effort and more. Training is an investment! It takes a lot of sacrifice to get to where you want to be. Are you committed?? Are you in it for the right reasons??

2. Competition. This is one of the most important values. We aren’t here to be facility rats! We are here to transfer our improvements to the ball field to WIN GAMES WITH YOUR TEAM. Thats that!

3. Community. Community involves the group of people you surround yourself with. Its a good mixture of those that are the same if not better than you that push you. But there are also those that you can help/mentor and bring up to the level you are at. If you look at our most improved athletes, they embody themselves in the community and make it better!⚡️

So if you are committed to the journey, feed off of competition, and want to be a part of a community that’s in it for the same reasons you are… what are you waiting for. Lets get started📈

In less than a year, @ryan.fuller30 has turned heads! From being upper 8’s & occasional 9s with reoccurring shoulder discomfort, Ryan has put himself on the map to being one of the country’s best High School Arms topping out at 96.9 mph!

So how exactly? With the guidance and mentorship of @timbrennan20 , Ryan redesigned how he transfers energy through the kinetic chain by optimizing proximal properties, timing his flip up, and crushing the weights with @ascent_strength & @frank_taveras_
Ryan gained a ton of lean muscle mass, got significantly stronger, and moved weight tremendously faster, all resulting in a more robust, capable frame.

He also made adjustments to his slider making it more of a sweeper as well as increasing changeup depth to have more separation off his sinker. Ryan is the epitome of @ascent_athlete_ … He is COMMITTED to the process, he is obsessed with COMPETITION, and he brings up the COMMUNITY around him, understanding that he has a heavy positive influence on his peers. EVERYONE…. gets better just by being around the flamethrower🔥

Ry has begun his preparation for the season by facing big league hitters. Yeah you read that right. This spring season leading up to the summer will be pivotal. Knowing Ryan, we all know this is where he thrives. He’s more than ready for whatever comes his way⚡️

To train alongside athletes like Ryan and work with the industry’s best like Tim, DM us for info to get started!

This past year, Cole has focused on building his frame with our sports performance team by increasing lean muscle mass, stability, proprioception and overall control of his body. A physical transformation was a prerequisite for him to continue his pitching development and proceed to throw over 100 mph at 16 years old.

In terms of his throwing, we have focused on timing up rotation, maintaining direction, and deceleration. We also have been chasing simplicity with his long leverages.
Besides the mechanical aspect, workload management, execution, refining secondary pitches, and command has been his priorities.

We are excited to see his continued success & growth 🚀 by @ascent_throws

In his second appearance of the week, 2027 RHP and Duke Commit @cole.kuhnn was able to showcase his newly refined arsenal and obviously, the heater. As the offseason approaches, the next couple weeks will primarily be focused on building a rigorous and comprehensive training plan to continue Cole’s development ⚡️⏳

Baseball players: how you rotate matters. ⚾️

If your hips and shoulders rotate together as one unit, you’re missing an important part of rotational movement.

The goal is to develop hip–shoulder separation, allowing your hips to begin rotating before your shoulders follow.

Why does this matter?

💥 Better sequencing: learn to coordinate your body through the rotational movement.

⚡ Power production: develop the ability to transfer energy through your body and into the throw or swing.

🎯 Better movement efficiency: train your body to rotate with purpose instead of just spinning as fast as possible.

Don’t just rotate harder. Learn to rotate BETTER.

Save this and pay attention to your rotation in your next training session. 📌

Follow for more practical baseball performance training. ⚾️

Focus goes where energy flows

Time keeps moving, baseball doesn’t stop for you to wait and get started. The time was yesterday

Ive done both, both work. But it’s up to you to decide which one fits your developmental season the best. Whichever one you pick, just know that you have a place here with us as your Ascent Family ⚡️ taken in Ascent Athlete by @ascent_throws

One of the most dangerous arms in high school right now is actually… a catcher

@thomas_lawler9 (up to 86 behind the dish) has been working w/ @demucci_11 & @dkeller_performance on shortening the window of time it takes to get the throw off, cleaning up the arm action and increasing efficiency towards his target

Different athletes. Same standard. 🔒

COMMITMENT
COMPETITION
COMMUNITY

The best training environments aren’t built around one athlete, they’re built around a group of athletes who push each other every single day.

This is what we’re building. 💪

Show up. Put the work in. Get better.
