I could get into the whole science behind building strength, but I am guessing you are looking for something realistic...
Have her do push-ups and tricep dips everyday. I know that sounds simple enough. But if you get into too much strength training without proper technique and guidance, you will risk injury.
The MOST important thing to remember when you are trying to increase strength in ball players is muscle symmetry. Not only do you want the right and left side to be equally strong, but you want the front and the back of the shoulder to be equally strong.
When we are talking about shoulder and arm strength for throwing, you need to make sure there is no muscle imbalance, so make sure both exercises are performed equally. Muscle Imbalance = Injury and week throws.
Most people are naturally imbalanced. We are stronger on the front side if the shoulder than the back.
I have a tiny 10u DD. Her throws have improved tremendously this year. Not only does she perform push-ups and Tricep Dips, but she has been taught to use her legs for the throw too. This delivers the most power.
Pm me with specific questions if you like.
Good Luck!
