14 Jun 126. Harrison Kuroda On Pitching Performance, Overcoming Injuries, & Coaching Athletes

Welcome Harrison Kuroda to the HNL Movement Podcast! There’s many great insights he shares from his experiences as an athlete and a coach. He talks about how baseball grew into his primary sport that led him to play at the University of Hawaii. His road wasn’t without obstacles and adversity as he persevered to return after shoulder surgery during his collegiate career. He talks about suffering multiple shoulder dislocations on his throwing shoulder. The first incident happened while playing soccer in high school and eventually led to a Bankart and labral repair. He shares many great firsthand insights through his recovery process to get back to pitching in college. He greatly credits Tommy Heffernan (Episode 100) with restoring his strength to play Division-I baseball again.

All of Harrison’s experiences have led him toward helping pitchers with strength & conditioning, throwing mechanics, and progressing on and off the field. In 2016, Harrison opened his facility Pitching Performance Hawaii, which is now in a 10,000 sq. ft. training space that includes a strength & conditioning, pitching, and hitting space. He encourages his athletes to be curious about learning and improving and prides himself on being a fresh set of eyes when coaching players of all ages. There are many great gems in this episode that will help athletes throughout their journey. Check out what he is doing on social media and his website below. Listen in and enjoy the episode!
