More Than Velocity

Recurring arm pain,

trouble throwing strikes,

and a search for answers that kept coming back to mechanics...

All that changed when an ArmCare assessment shifted the focus to building arm strength.

In this episode of More Than Velocity, Milo and his dad, Ian, join us to share his progress over nearly a year: more than 30 pounds of measured arm strength gained, a 6 mph velocity increase, and a spring season with 127 strikeouts in 62 innings.

Milo shares how his arm has felt, what the training looks like, and how he fits it into his routine. Ian offers a parent’s perspective on helping a young athlete take ownership of his development.

We cover:

• Looking beyond mechanics when a pitcher struggles

• Using strength testing to track progress

• Following individualized pitch counts and fatigue alerts

• Making customized arm care training easy to follow

• Building consistent habits heading into high school baseball

Ryan Cullen isn't just another talented young baseball player. At just 14 years old, he's already built a process that's better than that of many professional athletes—centered on measuring arm health, managing fatigue, preparing intentionally, and taking ownership of his development.

In this episode of the More Than Velocity Podcast, Ryan Croton sits down with Ryan and his father, Lance, to discuss their journey after an early throwing injury changed the way they approached baseball. What followed was a commitment to learning, objective testing, and creating a system that allows Ryan to train harder while reducing unnecessary risk.

Throughout the conversation, they discuss:

How Ryan uses the ArmCare Fresh Exam and Post Exam before and after games

Why measuring fatigue is more valuable than guessing

The importance of a structured throwing ramp-up

How proper arm preparation helps him feel confident every time he takes the mound Ryan's progression from the upper-50s/low-60s into the 70s.

Building strength without outgrowing arm capacity

Why communication between players, parents, and coaches matters

Lessons every baseball family can apply to keep athletes healthy and performing at their best

This conversation is about creating habits that support a long, healthy baseball career.
