Because the effort goes up, the arm will be a little more chronically sore, tired or tight, and some of it you need to push through and some of it you need to back off-trial and error and listening to yourself is the way to know which to do. With more days of throwing, some long toss and longer bullpens, the velocity will start to creep up, and you have to really trust it and let it go for the rest of the mphs to return. Everyone is different, so your velocity will come back on its own terms. I didnt break through the 90mph barrier until later, around 10.5 months, after I really started letting it loose, with 110% intensity and some anger behind my pitches.
