What are some good exercises and weightlifting techniques for baseball? I basically need a good workout plan

I play for a small highschool and am pretty good I average about five hundred but the coaches are telling me that i cannot play in college unless i have the long ball. I also want to improve my pitching arm. Thanks for suggestions|||Work out this winter. Lift and run. Hit off a tee and do some throwing. If you can get on a mound in the winter try to pitch at least once a week. Keep the pitch count low. Not all colleges are looking for the big power hitters. Improve your pitching and contact hitting.|||Strengthen your shoulders and forearms/wrists. You'll be surprised how much lighter and better control you'll have over the bat if you really work hard with dumbbell wrist curls and exercises like that. You should be doing an generalized program anyway with a lot of leg work and upper body as well but keying on shoulders and forearms should help you by next season.|||Look for a local Olympic Weightlifting club. Our club here in WA state works with Elite athletes to improve their performance. Olympic style weightlifting improves performance through strengthening and stabilizing of the body as a whole. Most gyms who train this way will let you check it out for free. Go to http://www.msbn.tv/usavision/index.aspx to find a local club.
