8-Week Youth Baseball Performance Program
Set your player up for success
Give your young ballplayer the tools to become a stronger, faster, more durable athlete. Led by Doctors of Physical Therapy at ROC Physical Therapy and Strength Coaches at Elevate, this program combines age-appropriate strength training, speed development, and arm-care education to help young athletes build a foundation for long-term success on the field. This program will focus on three primary areas of development:
1. Arm Care & Injury Prevention
Learn how to take care of your throwing arm through shoulder and elbow health, mobility, strength, and proper movement mechanics. We'll teach athletes exercises and habits they can carry with them throughout their baseball careers.
2. Strength Development
Build a foundation of total-body strength through age-appropriate resistance training. We'll emphasize movement quality, coordination, stability, and strength that translates to the baseball field.
3. Speed & Athleticism
Develop acceleration, explosiveness, agility, and coordination through drills designed to help young athletes move more efficiently and become better overall athletes.
What to expect
Each week, athletes will participate in a coached training session that incorporates all three areas of development.
Over the course of the program, athletes will:
✅ Learn an effective arm-care routine they can use year-round.
✅ Develop foundational strength and proper lifting technique.
✅ Improve acceleration, sprint mechanics, and explosiveness.
✅ Build better body awareness, coordination, and movement skills.
✅ Gain confidence in the weight room and on the field.
✅ Designed by Rochester’s top performance physical therapists and strength coaches.
✅ No prior training experience required
Our focus isn't on lifting the heaviest weights or pushing kids beyond their limits. It's about teaching them how to train properly and building habits that will benefit them for years to come.
All sessions will be held at Elevate, located at 342 N Goodman St, Rochester, NY 14607
Sessions are on the following Sundays: 12/6, 12/13, 12/20, 1/3, 1/10, 1/17, 1/24, 1/31
An 8-week specialized training program designed for youth baseball players to improve performance, reduce injury risk, and build a strong foundation for the season and beyond.

This program is designed with beginners in mind. If your child does not have any formal experience with exercise or weight training, this will be a perfect starting point.
-
As physical therapists, we are always mindful of past and current injuries. As long as we are made aware of the injury beforehand, we will be able to work with your child on that injury, work around the injury during the strength training portions of the program, or let you know if this program will not be appropriate.
