This thesis looks at youth baseball pitchers’ perceptions of the risks and benefits of a weighted baseball and long toss training program. The literature review is a supplement to the thesis by examining the effects of weighted baseball and long toss training programs on a youth pitcher’s arm health and career longevity. Prior research in this topic details the risks and benefits of these programs. The research survey conducted for this thesis aimed to supplement the prior research by giving insight into the perceptions of these young athletes towards weighted baseball and long toss training programs.
