Long Toss Progression
Long toss progression builds throwing distance in planned steps—arc and feet increase with readiness, not random max-distance sessions after time off.
Long toss progression gradually extends throwing distance and arc on prescribed days—start at sixty feet, move outward on feel, and cap distance by phase of season and arm readiness. It builds arm endurance and timing when dosed; random max-distance sessions after layoffs spike stress.
Pair with full warm-up and stop when velocity drops or shoulder pinches.
Common questions
-
How far should long toss go?
Follow a written plan—often line-of-sight limits by week—not whatever feels good one day. Stop when throws flatten or the shoulder complains; distance is earned through consistent buildup.
