A test group consisted of four thirteen year old boys who all had above average arm speed (initial range 60-65 mph). They performed the ARM STRONG workout three days a week for six weeks, after which I measured their arm speed again. Their respective arm speed increased 3 to 5 miles per hour (range: 63 to 70 mph). Although hardly a rigorous scientific study, the results certainly convinced me to include the ARM STRONG station as part of our ongoing workout routine.\"\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e- Robert L.

It's been great using the trainer both in and outdoors; before practices and games; and in the pre-season, during the season, and in the off-season.
