What are some key strategies to an accurate throw?
The optimal dart throwing strategy is an overarm throw with an optimal release angle of 17–37° before the arm becomes vertical, and a corresponding optimal speed of 5.1–5.5 m s−1. At this speed and release angle, the dart would be released 44–35 ms before the hand reaches the zenith.
Why can’ti throw a baseball accurately?
Throwing the ball with better accuracy is much easier when you have a good 4 seam grip. If your grip is off, a seam could catch the air as it flies through the air and it can start moving (the same way a pitcher throws a sinker or cut fast ball). This ball action makes it difficult for consistent accurate throws.

Why is my throwing arm so weak?
A pitcher feeling weak requires shoulder examination. Pain and/or weakness are common signs of ligament weakness. Ligament weakness in the shoulder will almost always lead to a rotator cuff tendonitis. If this is not treated, the rotator cuff muscles will give out, putting even more stress and strain on the ligaments.
How do you cure a dead arm?
Dead arm syndrome will not go away on its own with rest—it must be treated. If there is a SLAP lesion, then surgery is needed to repair the problem. If the injury is caught before a SLAP tear, then physical therapy with stretching and exercise can restore it.

Arm numbness can occur for several reasons that range from mild causes, such as sleeping in the wrong position, to a severe medical condition, such as a heart attack. Sudden numbness in one or both arms may be a sign of a heart attack, stroke, or nerve damage, especially if a person has other symptoms.
Does having a strong core make you throw harder?
Research consistently shows a strong correlation between muscular strength, body mass (which increases as a result of gaining muscle) and throwing velocity.
Does being flexible make you throw harder?
Hip and hamstring flexibility The more you can separate your hips from your shoulders during the process of throwing, the harder you’ll throw. When the kinetic chain is proper the hips fire at your target while the shoulders stay closed.
