Trusted youth baseball teaching resource VeloRESET has released Beyond Pitch Counts, a new book designed to change the way coaches, families and young players think about pitch performance and rest.
-- VeloRESET has announced the release of Beyond Pitch Counts, a new book and online resource that addresses growing concerns among parents and coaches that traditional pitch count guidelines may not fully explain arm soreness, fatigue and performance inconsistency in young baseball players.

In youth baseball in the US, game pitch counts have long been used as a primary safeguard for arm health, but new research and field experience indicate that the total workload must be considered, including bullpen sessions, warm-ups, defensive throws, showcase events, condensed tournament play and more. Plus, physical changes during adolescence can further affect coordination, recovery patterns and perceived arm stress.
That’s why VeloRESET, a youth pitching education platform, is pleased to be contributing to this evolving conversation by introducing a new readiness-based decision-making model for families and coaches in Beyond Pitch Counts. Their framework encourages coaches and parents alike to evaluate pitching decisions within a broader context that includes recovery status, recent throwing history, growth-related changes and observable fatigue signals.
This approach specifically aims to address what they call the ‘hidden workload’ — accumulated physical stress that is not reflected in official pitch counts. By recognizing this broader workload, parents and coaches may better understand why two young athletes with similar pitch totals can experience different recovery outcomes.
To rectify this issue, VeloRESET’s new book offers a detailed but accessible guide designed to help parents make the right youth pitching decisions during the competitive season. Rather than prescribing rigid programs, the book both explains the 'why' of arm soreness and pitching issues and teaches readers 'how' to approach it, introducing practical tools that will support clearer decision-making.
As such, the book also comes with an additional Decision Companion resource, which includes a Weekly Workload Template, a Readiness Spectrum Visual, a Growth Phase Brief and an educational podcast that expands on workload management principles. Plus, VeloRESET offer extra insights regularly on their YouTube, which can be accessed at https://www.youtube.com/@VeloRESET
VeloRESET’s materials are designed to help families determine when additional rest may be appropriate, when workloads can be maintained, and when adjustments may support more consistent recovery. Their model also emphasizes that post-game soreness does not automatically indicate injury and that recovery timelines can vary considerably during developmental stages.
Given that more youth sports organizations, coaches and families are seeking balanced approaches to athlete development, Joey Myers, the founder of VeloRESET and the author of Beyond Pitch Counts, believes readiness-based frameworks are set to become one of the most important tools alongside existing pitch count guidelines.
