hrowMo, Throw Better with ThrowMo

Understanding ThrowMo, the Simpler Way to Throw Right

ThrowMo, Throw Better kicks off this episode with a spotlight on how one small device is helping kids improve their throwing mechanics. Coach Aaron is joined by guest hosts Deklan “Swaggy D” Mele and Mateo “The Baseball Kid” to talk with Coach David Andrukonis, the creator of ThrowMo. His tool is built for young athletes who want to learn proper throwing form and stay injury-free.

Coach David shares how he came up with the idea for ThrowMo after years of coaching and after realizing there was a need to help youth players improve their throwing mechanics. He saw a problem—young players were throwing the wrong way—and he wanted to fix it. Therefore, he designed a device that gives instant feedback when players throw correctly. Mateo chimes in, saying, “ThrowMo makes throwing feel like second nature.”

How ThrowMo Helps Players Build Confidence

ThrowMo, Throw Better is more than a tagline. It’s about making smart habits easier to learn. The crew breaks down how the tool works for players at any age or level. For instance, players feel the right motion and begin to repeat it without overthinking.

In addition, Coach David explains how ThrowMo helps coaches too. It reduces the need for constant correction, giving athletes space to build their skills. Swaggy D talks about his own experience struggling with control and how tools like this can turn that around quickly. The group agrees—this is the kind of training product baseball has needed.

The Journey from Idea to Real-World Impact

ThrowMo, Throw Better also reflects a story of persistence. Coach David opens up about the challenges of launching a new product. At first, it wasn’t easy. However, positive feedback from players and parents helped him keep going.

Today, the ThrowMo is used by teams across the country. Many coaches include it in their daily practices. As a result, they see fewer arm injuries and better consistency from their players. “When players feel it, they get it. That’s the power of ThrowMo,” Coach David says.

Wrapping Up with a Powerful Message

Before ending the episode, Coach David shares his walkout song—“In The Air Tonight” by Phil Collins—a fitting anthem for someone helping athletes train smarter and build confidence. The team closes with a reminder that doing the small things right, like learning to throw correctly, makes a huge difference.

If you want to improve your throwing or help a young player build a solid foundation, this is the episode to hear. ThrowMo is changing the game—one throw at a time.
