    well i read that its about 140% or something of his height so thats pretty far for him

  2. Online Casinos for USA Players

    Check out his stride at the 32 seconds of the video, that’s why he throws so damn hard. His flexbility and stride is off the charts. I’m a fan of Lincecum, he is a freak.

  3. Cereus Rakeback

    forward momentum at the lift can increase the stride bigtime. He keepts his upper body stored over his back hip n gets out over that from leg. The result upper 90’s Simply Extraordinary

    I’d answer that yes muscle strenght does produce a big part of this effort, but the key to stride it long is:
    Flexibility and timing.

    When you’re able to perform a split, it’s obvious your movement amplitude is greater.

    Also, notice how his body always kind of “kick” at given moments. You have to be used to see him to notice or have a great eye. It shows that he uses a rythmic pattern and it involves different body phases to perform, even for a single movement.

    Yeah. It said in SI that he should be off balance and that he could really hurt his knee. But, what saves him is quite simple. He actually jumps off of the rubber. If you watch closely you can see that his back foot is off the rubber before his stride foot is down.

    yea I was gonna say for how tall he is that is far as fuck, most pitching coaches will tell you to not over stride because you loose some of the force generated after your original drive down the mound, your front foot is the hammer on a gun, you drive down the hill and when your front foot hits you explode your hips shoulders arm and back leg forward.

    Actually I was reading about him in Sports Illustrated and it said his stride off of the mound is 10ft. That’s 1 1/2 times his own height

  8. Tim Lincecum

    he is still an amazing pitcher

    needs to find a team other than the Giants though lol

  9. Cereus Rakeback

    It’s actually not to far, it’s what happens when you are athletic and have good leverage through the feet to finger tips.

    In major leagues it’s about 7 feet consistently. Not hard to do when you generate leverage like he does.

  10. Heads Up Poker

    i just can’t beleive how long of a stride he has when going to the plate

  11. Poker Tips From The Pros

    my favorite pitcher.

  12. Heads Up Poker

    heck, he dont even got too ice his arm.
    all props go to the guy, just dont screw up the fact that you are sport king of bay, dont be like jeff kent or baron davis

  13. Online Poker

    yeah you can teach and shit but some people are naturally gifted

  14. CA Vehichle Registration

    A pecfect example of how to use your body to keep your arm injury free.

    I love his mechanics.

  15. Heads Up Poker

    i try that when i throw, and it helps me get angle on the ball and just a little but more velocity… but ultimately it helps my change up… its my best pitch

  16. MMA Betting

    he would have gotten hurt years ago, hes STILL pitching strong today and he’ll be doing so for years and years and years to come!

  17. Cereus Rakeback

    hahaha, keep thinking that, you fool!

  18. Trade Barry Zito

    Guys, he won’t ruin his arm. His dad trained him ever since he was a little kid (when he was in little league and shit). So he has been doing this a long time.

  19. Heads Up Poker

    Go look at high speed films they all have different arm actions.

  20. MMA Betting

    no, they all have the same elbow motion. look at it. they all have their forarms/hand below the elbow when they break the hands. then pop it up into a throwing position. and he curls his wrist back as he breaks his hands. puts more stress on the ucl

  21. Trade Barry Zito

    all the people you listed have different arm actions.

    Lincecum will not get hurt. He’s proven everyone wrong since a little kid when they said he will get hurt.

    He doesn’t even get sore so how can you say he is going to deff get hurt.

  22. UFC Betting

    i agree with jay
    him and his dad have you used these mechanics
    since middle school
    now he is throwin in the triple digits

  23. Online Poker

    LMAO then you don’t understand how he uses his body to throw with his arm along for the ride.

    He uses Leverage and his full body and is super strong and flexible and as long as he keeps his core strength and hinges loose he will be able to pitch a long time.

  24. MMA Betting

    he will pop his tommy john. his elbow motion is nasty. that will tear pretty soon

  25. Casino Suite

    No you don’t have to worry about Lincecum because his dad Chris created a new way of throwing a baseball that IMO will reduce injury and increase velocity.
