Carter Hohn - Throwing Coordinator at BRX Performance

Written By Ian Bach

Season 4 Episode 30 is out with Carter Hohn. Carter is currently the Throwing Coordinator at BRX Performance location in Milwaukee, WI. During his college career, Carter attended 4 different schools. Carter graduated from Central Christian College of Kansas with a BS in Kinesiology & Exercise Science. During his college career, Carter trained at Driveline for about 6 months learning how to progress in his own player development.

BRX Performance is a baseball facility that specializes in custom S&C and throwing programs. BRX does a fantastic job of combining the role of S&C with throwing allowing for overall exceptional workload management. Carter talks about how BRX shows the continuing education factor towards the facility by having staff meetings every morning and breaking down current clients’ deficiencies in throwing & in the weight room.

Carter talks about BRX’s style of programming explaining how the facility leans heavily towards using plyos. BRX wants the athlete to work through basic primary movements of the throwing and heavy emphasis on workload management. One of the main goals for the facility is for each athlete to understand how to manage their workload throughout each season.
