So, this has been annoying me for quite a while, though I'm not sure why. Feel free to post a response, or some physical activity that just has you flummoxed.

I can't throw worth beans. (I'm referring to throwing a football around or tossing a baseball around) I suck at it so much. I am by no means unathletic. I range from good to fair at most other athletic activities: running, basketball, tennis, squash, and volleyball as well as a few other random activities. But for the love of me, I can't throw. Almost everyone I've met, save extremely feminine girls who never excercise, can throw much better than me. Even though I beat most to all of my friends in all the above activities, I'm so bad at throwing I almost want to bench myself when they start playing catch.

Is there some sort of muscle group associated with throwing that is underdevloped in me? Did I not do enough throwing as a kid? Can I improve this without going out and just throwing stuff as far as I can?

P.S. My throwing skills mosthly hamper me when we toss the football or baseball around.
