Recently as I have gotten back into the swing of things I've run into these few minor problems:

1-Arm Strength, what are proper throwing mechanics and what are some easy exercises to increase arm strength (for fielders).

2-Hitting mechanics, what are proper hitting mmechanics? I feel like the way I swing is okay but I have no POWER!

3-Proper way to run, I know it may sound silly, but after I'm done practicing and I have been running I have pain in my lower legs. I have been taught to roll form heel to toe while running and I have only experienced pain over the last few months.

4-And finally, 1st base tips, I have been taught to see the throw coming in and direct your front leg out as the ball comes in, so you can have mobility on bad throws, but for me it creates a timing problem. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for the help(I'm lost without this forum:crazy).

Wow! I suggest breaking this into four different threads. Too much to deal with in one thread.
