🔥 The Reason I Failed at Baseball

The end of my Jr year of high school I weighed 125lbs and topped 78mph


The crazy thing is I saw no problem


After all, I was winning high school awards 🙄


What I knew how to do was pitch: I could locate black to black and had quality offspeed -despite only throwing 78 that is good enough to be effective in high school


To my egotistical mind I thought I was on my way - I was so delusional I genuinely expected D1 schools to call me


I was surprised none did.


What I needed was me NOW to go back and train me THEN


Tell my scrawny weak self, hey, F= MxA if you get stronger and bigger YOU will throw a 5oz object harder than YOU used to throw it: I’ll show you how to get strong, get your diet right, get you on a smart throwing program, and let’s see what you can actually do


But I had no one in that role in my life, which is why I failed
