In this episode of the More Than Velocity Podcast, we answer some of the most common questions parents, coaches, and players have about using ArmCare correctly.

We cover:

• The best way to get started with ArmCare
• Common setup mistakes that hurt data quality
• How to balance ArmCare with weight room training
• What to do when an athlete’s arm feels fatigued
• When to modify training vs push through
• How recovery impacts strength, velocity, and injury risk
• Why workload management matters more than most people realize

The team also discusses how to interpret fatigue, how ArmCare fits into a complete throwing program, and why “something is better than nothing” when it comes to recovery training.

We also open the episode with a fun discussion on MLB Opening Day, robot umpires (ABS system), Cy Young predictions, and the future of baseball.

If you're a baseball parent, coach, or athlete trying to build a stronger, healthier arm, this episode is packed with practical advice you can apply immediately.

Most rehab programs get athletes out of pain… but not back to performance.

In this episode of the More Than Velocity Podcast, Dr. Craig Duggan breaks down what’s missing in traditional rehab—and how combining strength data, biomechanics, and load management changes everything.

From youth athletes to pros, this conversation dives into:

• Why “time-based rehab” isn’t enough
• The role of strength metrics in return-to-throw decisions
• How poor communication between coaches, PTs, and trainers leads to injuries
• The biggest mistakes still happening in arm care today
• Why movement isn’t “right vs wrong”—it’s about capacity
• What young athletes actually need to stay healthy and throw harder This is how you bridge the gap between rehab and performance.

What actually drives pitching performance, and why are so many players still getting it wrong?

In this episode of the More Than Velocity Podcast, we sit down with legendary pitching coach and biomechanics pioneer Tom House to break down the future of pitching development.

From his early work with elite athletes to today’s cutting-edge tools like Mustard and ArmCare, Tom and Weston Lombard of Mustard share how the game is evolving beyond radar-gun readings—and what players, coaches, and parents need to understand to build durable, high-performing pitchers.

We dive into:

• Why velocity alone is misleading
• The missing link between mechanics and strength
• How data is changing player development (and where it falls short)
• The concept of “windows of trainability”
• Why throwing strikes might be the most underrated skill in baseball

This is all about performance, durability, and actually developing pitchers, not just velo.
