Throw as if you're trying to tear your arm out of its socket...intent to throw hard - that's all it is, and it got Rob another 2-3 mph instantly when he applied it. For most, it will give much much more. Awesome post.

The cue was basically what you said – throw as though you don’t care about the well being of your arm.
