Performance Velocity Systems: creating Pittsburgh's Hardest Throwers & Most Devastating Hitters . PVS is Western PA's first and only Baseball training facility that focuses on velocity development. PVS trains more current Professional Baseball players than any other Greater Pittsburgh Baseball facility. Our training program and products are used by athletes at many local Division 1 & Division 2 sc
hools including Marshall University, Penn State, Pitt, West Virginia, & Slippery Rock. We consult 3 Western PA University Baseball programs. We also train several of the WPIAL's top performers from schools such as Upper St. Clair, Butler, Mt. Lebanon, Bethel Park, Central Catholic, Steel Valley, West Allegheny and others. Why are we different? What sets us apart? Well for a High School aged or Collegiate player, we offer a 3 pronged approach to development. Whether you're trying to make a High School team or have designs on playing Baseball in College- The sport has moved to measurable based analysis. Simply put, it doesn't matter how many trophies you won or where you won them. It doesn't much matter anymore how clean and pretty your mechanics are. What does matter is how fast you are, how hard you throw and how hard the ball comes off of your bat. Like a 40 yard dash time to a football player- these 3 measurables are everything to an aspiring HS or Collegiate player. Our Velocity training begins with the High School or College player completing an initial general fitness assessment. This evaluation is free. After signing on as a PVS athlete, each player gets a nutrition and "on-ramping" plan. Assuming their are no serious mechanical issues, they begin a 4 week set of protocols. These Protocols are rooted in physics, anatomy and scientific theory. Everything done at PVS has been tested and retested. We took 20 test subjects last summer and put them through our program. Each player added throwing and exit velocity. The greater number of sessions the subject attended- the greater his gains. Our Process allows the human body it's best chance for success. We value timing with our sleep and nutrition that will promote ideal hormone release. Our workouts are fast, intense and always follow a series of activation or movement preps. These protocols allow our athletes to get the most out of their workout in the safest manner possible. We EMPHASIZE movement prep and recovery before and after every phase of our workout plans. This emphasis helps produce the amazing results our athletes achieve.
