Albertus Vaut Barber IV:

Hey everyone, Albertus Vaut Barber IV here.Here’s some things you should know about me.I was the worst athlete I knew growing up, and had to work my entire life to even have a chance.I will die for this game, and for those who love it.Anyone who respects this game, and truly puts their best foot forward, will receive everything I can offer.I dropped out of college to go train, and eventually work as a janitor at Driveline.Working in this role gave me the ability to learn under all of the great minds.I’ve pulled down over 100, sat upper 90s, played up to AA, and have survived 9+ years of being injured/adversity.This game gave me nothing easy, and I will continue to bite and scratch for every moment.Training to me is a way to hold me accountable, and learn how to convey certain messages to my athletes.I personally believe that every coach should also be playing/practicing the sport that they coach.I look forward to entering the trenches with all of you, and accomplishing more than you could ever imagine.You might not ever realize how good you could possibly be, but WE WILL.

Josh Gessner:

Hey, I’m Josh!In 2017 I was a 16 year old kid throwing 78 mph…With ambitions to sign a professional contract.What followed was 2 years of lonely, frustrating, slow growth.I made many mistakes and wasted hours - I even got a case of the yips.But… I found a way.In 2019:• I hit 96 mph.
• Offered by my dream school Stanford.
• Signed with the Philadelphia Phillies.Over the past 6 years, I’ve constantly thought about how to become a better pitcher.I researched different training methods, visited world class baseball facilities and talked with the best coaches in professional baseball.I ended up with a system to increase pitching performance…That’s proven to produce results.Now I want to help you.

Welcome to ThePitcherLab.

Hey, I’m Josh Gessner—thanks for applying to train with us at ThePitcherLab.com.You might already know me. Or maybe you just heard about us. Either way, I want to give you a behind-the-scenes look at who we are, how this all started, and why The Pitcher Lab is different.Because if you’re serious about gaining velocity and transforming your career, this is going to matter.

My Story: From 78 to 96 MPH in 2 Years

At 16, I was a non-prospect throwing 78 MPH. I was just another kid from Sydney, Australia.But within two years, I was touching 96 MPH. That led to an offer from my dream school (Stanford) and eventually signing with the Philadelphia Phillies where I hit 98mph.

Why Velocity is KING:

I want to tell you how much of a great thing it is...That you are looking to increase velocity.It's best explained by an example I was told that will never leave my mind...I want you to imagine a scenario:A coach talks to a pro scout about a pitcher.
"Hey man, I've got this kid I want you to look at.
• Elite comand.
• Banger breaking ball.
• Dog on the mound."
The scout is interested.
"How hard does he throw?" he answers.
"83... But he's got plenty of potential to throw harder..."
What do you think the scout is going to say?
Probably something along the lines of:
"Sounds good - call me when he's 90+"
It's the brutal truth, and the reality.
Pitching velocity is a requirement to play at the next level.And you… Probably don’t throw hard enough.
If you were, you wouldn’t be reading this.
But that’s okay.
We’re here to help.

Why We Built ThePitcherLab:

After training at some of the biggest baseball facilities in the world, I kept seeing the same problems:• Overcrowded environments
• Burnt-out coaches
• Cookie-cutter programs
• No long-term developmentSo Albertus and I built the exact system we wish we had—one that actually gets results and supports athletes every step of the way.

ThePitcherLab: How It Works

We break training into two phases:1. Build the Frame
Before you throw harder, your body has to be able to produce more force.
We develop:• Strength
• Power
• Mobility
• Speed
• Body composition
• NutritionYou’ll get a fully customized daily training plan tailored to your exact needs.2. Refine the Mechanics
We analyze your delivery and identify your biggest velocity leaks.
Then we coach you step-by-step to build efficient mechanics.We do this with personalized feedback from elite coaches (including MLB experience).

The Athlete Experience (Step-by-Step):

• 1-1 Coaching with Our Staff
Daily communication and feedback in real time.• Full Assessment + Mechanics Breakdown
We analyze your movement, history, and delivery to build your roadmap.• Customized Training Program
Includes strength, mobility, med ball work, plyos, nutrition, and throwing.• Live Group Calls
We dive deep into mechanics, mindset, recovery, training, and more.

Let’s Get to Work.

If you’ve already booked a call—awesome. We can’t wait to talk to you.If not, lock in your spot before they fill up.This is the system I wish I had as an athlete. Now it’s yours.—Josh Gessner
