How to get “hot” to throw hard: The best baseball warm up you’ll ever do
Learn the secrets to warming up like the pro’s and get better, faster
One of the most common sayings a pitcher hears from his manager is “get hot”. But what does that really mean and how do you do it?
A great warm up should:
- Address areas of weakness/improvement
- Create sufficient mobility for the task ahead to reduce the risk of injury
- Progressively excite the nervous system for the demands of the task
In the case of throwing hard, it’s powerful and explosive-so should your warm up end up being.
Here’s a sequence we recommend you try and that all players in our rotational power programs complete before throwing:
Does your warm up make you sweat?
Does it allow you precious time to improve areas that may be holding you back?

🌎 Happy World Physiotherapy Day! 🩵
Today we’re celebrating physiotherapy and the difference it can make at every stage of life.
From recovering from an injury and returning to sport, to building strength, managing pain and staying active as we age — physiotherapy is about helping people move better, feel stronger and get back to doing what they love.
We’re incredibly proud of our team at Pontifex Physiotherapy and the care, knowledge and passion we bring to every patient.
We genuinely love what we do as physios — getting to work with people, support their recovery, celebrate their progress and help them achieve the things that matter most to them.
A big thank you to all of our patients for trusting us with your health, recovery and goals. 🩵
