Introducing
The Edge PowerTM, the most
effective baseball training device available anywhere.
In baseball,
increased power means hitting harder and throwing faster - this is what
we all strive for and train for.
A variable-weighted glove, it
comes fitted with 12 ounces of weight per hand. The weight can be increased
from 2 ounces up to a pound by 2 ounce increments. Additional weight packs
can be ordered to reach the maximum weight of 2 pounds per hand.
The Edge
PowerTM was first developed to strengthen a third
baseman’s arm to increase the velocity of the throw, and it worked!
Shortly after it
was introduced it was tried as a training device to increase hand speed for
batting. Again, it worked, and it continues to work over and over again.
The Edge
PowerTM helps strengthen every muscle used in the throwing
motion. Every player from Little League to professional can benefit from The
Edge. It is great for stretching, warming up and practicing. This is the
only training device that strengthens while the wearer is doing nothing more
than throwing. It's that easy! Not only does it increase velocity, it also
helps to reduce injuries.
THROWING: Whether you
pitch, catch, play the infield or outfield a strong throwing arm is
important. What if you could increase the speed of your pitch or just throw
the ball with greater velocity? You can!
HITTING:
The Edge PowerTM definitely increases power in hitting.
The Edge can be worn during warm-up, in the batting cage and during batting
practice. It is no secret that bat speed is a vital part of power hitting
and The Edge works to increase bat speed. By wearing The Edge on a regular
basis, swinging the applied weight helps strengthen all the muscles used
throughout the entire swinging motion. This is known as functional
strengthening through functional exercise. This not only works for the major
muscles, but also the minor muscles, which help with control.
The Edge Power Gloves
were rated a top training tool by Collegiate Baseball, which had this
to say in January 2002:
This product has
proven to increase speed and power for pitching and throwing by increasing
arm strength and helping develop proper technique. In testing with 100
college pitchers over a 2-year period, the results showed a definite
increase in pitching velocity, endurance and power.
The tests also
showed a significant decrease in arm and shoulder injuries. No pitchers
involved in the testing suffered injuries in the seasons that followed the
testing. Pitchers using this device have strengthened the shoulder and
rotator cuff to help reduce the possibilities of injury.
"Coaches have
tried different weights for years in training hitters and pitchers to hit
and throw harder while attempting to stay healthy. But this is the first
time to my knowledge weight has been on the back of the hand. This product
has benefits which should be closely looked into," said Oakland A’s pitching
coach Rick Peterson.
Studies have shown
that training with the Edge Gloves for an 8-10 week period elicited an
increase in pitch velocity of 2.2 mph
.
"The
Edge PowerTM training gloves are an excellent training
tool to enhance performance and maximize
potential. They should be used while performing arm care exercises
as well as shadow boxing. The Edge PowerTM gloves need
to be incorporated in off season training programs to help
increase strengthen, velocity and reduce injuries. The Edge PowerTM
training gloves are essential for daily training for pitching,
hitting and all position players, from Little League to the
Majors."

Pitching Coach for The Oakland A's
"Ideal for
workouts and camps, when properly supervised, The Edge PowerTM
gloves have proven to increase arm strength and pitch speed in
players eleven and older. I highly recommend the Gloves to
coaches, players and parents seeking to enhance pitching and
throwing performance!"
— Craig Pippin
Former College/Professional Pitcher
Founder, Youth Baseball Camps
"My pitching speed has increased from 80 mph to 92 mph
thanks to The Edge PowerTM . I can't thank you enough,
Bruce."

"I have tried many products to increase throwing velocity and bat
speed. The Edge PowerTM is by far the best I
have seen or used."
— Steve Hayward
Instructor, Strikes Baseball School
"We have tested and found an increase of 3 to 7 mph in bat
speed when wearing The Edge. Based on the overload/underload
principle of training, The Edge PowerTM improves bat
speed immediately and dramatically. Try it and you'll experience
immediate improvements."
— Ed H. Howell

"My 14
year-old-son trained with The Edge Power gloves. After just
three weeks, we noticed an 11 mph increase in bat speed.
During a game, in his fourth week of using The Edge PowerTM
glove, my son hit a baseball over 350 feet, almost a l00 feet
longer than he's ever hit a ball. I'll tell anyone to try The Edge
PowerTM gloves for two to three weeks and you will see
unbelievable results. I guarantee it! Once again, thank you,
Bruce, for inventing The Edge PowerTM glove."
— Fred Willoughby
Father and Coach
"Ordered your gloves after reading Collegiate Baseball Magazine.
My son Matt Cusick uses them 5 days a week while working off the
tee. With 24 ounces of increased weight, this tool has
definitely increased his bat speed. More importantly, Matt
tells me the gloves are comfortable."
- A Parent
"I
use my gloves every night before I go to sleep for about an hour.
Just flipping the ball up in the air, and taking many dry swings,
I try and use my wrists as much as I can. The results are so
obvious, and are coming rapidly. Today in BP I hit one of the
farthest balls I have ever hit, estimated a good 100 feet over the
375 in right center. I feel my arm has gotten stronger just in
the week I have been using it. Especially as a catcher, the
throw is all wrists."
