Your squats are big. Not HUGE but big, plenty big enough to throw far. As a very general goal, maybe gun for a 5-8% increase in weights across the board in your lifts and THROW A LOT.
I might try some incline next year, but I really want to bench 315, so I'm going to keep bench as a main lift until I do. I'm soooo close....
Yep, I plan on throwing a lot - as much as I can. I have a park where I can throw less than 100 yards from my house. So there's no excuses, I should be throwing several times a week if I'm healthy. But for the next 4 months, my goal is to get stronger (in terms of 1RM). After that (during season I guess) I plan to tailor the workouts around the throwing.
