Zachary Cowart

Alright Zachary, here's your Road to 90. You're currently sitting at 70 mph, which means you need about 20.0 mph to hit your target of 90. You're early in your development journey at the 34th percentile. At this stage, almost everything you work on will help — mobility, strength, power, and motor control all move the needle.

Zachary, here's what jumps out at me — you're throwing 70 mph, but based on your physical profile, our AI model predicted you'd be around 64.7 mph. That's a +5.3 mph difference, which tells me your mechanics and motor patterns are already working in your favor. You're squeezing more velocity out of your body than most athletes with similar builds. That's a huge positive.

Your mechanics efficiency is at the 86th percentile — that's excellent. You're converting your athleticism into velocity very well. There may be small refinements we can make, but the big wins will come from improving your physical profile.

Based on the AI analysis, here are your biggest opportunities to add velocity:

Let me be honest with you — getting to 90 mph is a big goal. The improvements I've outlined give you about +13.9 mph, which would put you around 83 mph. That's a great interim target. The remaining 6.1 mph will require elite-level development — we're talking about pushing past 90th percentile on multiple metrics. Set 83 mph as your first milestone, crush that, then we'll re-evaluate and map out the next phase.

Based on everything I'm seeing here, here's what I recommend: The 3X Pitching Velocity Program is exactly what you need. This isn't just a throwing program — it's a complete system that addresses mechanics, strength, power, and motor learning all in one. You've got some physical development to do, and the 3X Program includes the strength and power protocols to build that foundation while you're learning elite mechanics. To accelerate your results, I highly recommend using the TopVelocity training devices that are built into the program: The Trunk Excelerator teaches you to generate and transfer rotational power through your core — this is where velocity lives. The Stride Excelerator builds explosive leg drive and proper stride mechanics, which is the foundation of the 3X approach. The Impulse Ground Force Trainer develops your ability to create force into the ground, and the TopVelocity Sled builds the specific strength patterns you need for a powerful delivery. These aren't gimmicks — they're tools designed to train the exact movement patterns that separate high-velocity pitchers from everyone else. Combine them with the 3X Program and you'll see results faster than training alone.

The two biggest physical drivers for you right now are broad jump and Total Body Strength. Together, these account for about 5.0 mph of your velocity gap.

After that, it's about the supporting package: left ankle dorsiflexion (mobility), vertical jump, Right Grip Strength (power/stability), Body Height. These aren't the headline levers, but they raise the floor and make your mechanics easier to execute.
