The K Zone Elite Pitching Program is a four-day-a-week training system designed to develop complete pitchers through a blend of data-driven evaluation, mechanical refinement, and performance development. Athletes begin with monthly metrics testing and data tracking to measure progress and identify movement patterns that impact performance. Through video and motion analysis, pitchers receive detailed breakdowns of their arm path, sequencing, and timing to enhance efficiency and consistency on the mound.
Each training day includes daily drill packages built to reinforce proper mechanics, along with a comprehensive arm care routine featuring pre-throw activation and post-throw recovery work to protect long-term durability. Pitchers follow a customized velocity development program that includes on-ramping, velocity phases, pitch design, and recovery protocols. Focused pitch development sessions sharpen pitch shapes, improve spin efficiency, and create repeatable release points to enhance command.
To support power and resilience, athletes train through a complete performance routine that includes strength training, mobility work, and full-body movement development. Strength and power training incorporates multi-joint lifts, medicine ball throws, and plyometric work to maximize force production and energy transfer through the lower half and core. Dedicated mobility training targets the hips, thoracic spine, and shoulders to unlock range of motion and improve mechanical efficiency. Finally, the program emphasizes rate of force development and speed strength through contrast training, band-resisted movements, and velocity-based lifts that translate directly to faster, more explosive mound performance.

Michael Boyle, a former 13th-round draft pick of the Los Angeles Dodgers, brings more than a decade of professional pitching experience across the Dodgers, Twins, and Mexican Professional Baseball League. At Radford University, he established himself as one of the program’s all-time greats, ranking in the Top 5 for career ERA, wins, strikeouts, and shutouts. He specializes in refining pitching mechanics, optimizing velocity and command, and developing complete pitchers through a data-driven, detail-oriented approach. Michael’s passion for player growth, combined with his deep understanding of pitching movement patterns, makes him an elite mentor for athletes looking to elevate their game.
HammerZone is equipped with all the tools a pitcher needs to develop and take their game to an elite level. Our 70-foot cages allow weekly bullpen sessions and live ABs with Trackman, while our HammerZone Performance Lab gives pitchers access to plyo balls, med balls, water bags, mounds for dry drills, and wall racks for full-body performance training needed to develop the complete pitcher.


The K Zone training program is available to players everywhere in High School, College, or the Pros through our remote training option. Players receive custom training programs and direct feedback from K Zone coaches to keep their development on track from any location.
