My daughter has some outer elbow and back-of-shoulder soreness from overhand throwing. Best fix is working on her mechanics. We're doing that.

But does anyone use elastic bands that could recommend exercises that would strengthen these areas, or help prevent injuries/soreness?

I had the pleasure of working in the clubhouse and training room of a MLB team. I snapped a couple of pictures of items that stuck out to me. They had bands tied to carabiner clips. They would hook the ball or the bat handle to the bands then to one of many hooks on the wall or machine weights (I don't recommend the weights).

Please check with a trainer or Dr. before using.
