hey what's up everyone Morey Croson here and today we're gonna be going over the
weight shift when throwing the football i'm gonna start the video right now
this is the newest edition of the performance reach your individual goals you don't want to
talk about straight lines we also want to talk about your ability to be quick
we break down your video let's make you into the quarterback i know you can become
alright so this was a recommendation actually and i think it's a great topic and something that
is really beneficial for quarterbacks when you're able to implement it correctly and so
what we're thinking about here is you know as we are going through the throw and where should the
weight distribution be as we go through you know the load right and then continuing on through
the finish now you know everyone's going to be a little bit different here okay so you don't want
to go exactly like how i am but this is a good way to provide some degree of a understanding
of where around we should be from a weight shift perspective right so as we're starting off here
loading into that back leg and we're taking that that step with that back that uh front foot right
so we're getting into this position typically what i would say was like a 60 40 distribution
between that back leg and you know that front foot now you know as time is gone it almost seems like
you know there's a time period so right right now i'm i'm about 50 50. right i'm 50 50 from from my
my right to my left the best i can and when i first the first action show when i first kind
of sink down especially i'm throwing the ball deep i really want to be pushing down through
the balls of my feet so it almost wants to think about like you know the max that you possibly can
in this right foot okay and so if we're going to look at that the weight distribution is 50
50 and then as i initiate like initiate going forward here and want to really start loading into
that back hip i want to go 100 right that first action should be 100 into this back leg right
and then as i initiate that push and start to rotate here now the weight distribution is going
to start coming forward right so there's like as hard amount of of uh push as i can to that back
leg right and then as i step with this front foot because i'm going here and i'm taking the step at
the same time right so it's 100 distribution and then you know we're going and and taking this step
so now it wants to be you know about 60 40 maybe 55 45 right there doesn't want to necessarily be
a huge amount of difference between where i'm at with my back leg and you know my my front foot now
i do want my upper body to kind of be back right but i'm just kind of getting a gauge of where i
feel more of my my pressure within my foot again i want to say probably about 55 in that back leg
about 45 in the front leg right so i'm stepping here getting as much as i can going from 100 you
know now to here you know maybe 60 40 55 45 right and then what's happening here right i'm gonna be
in about you know this position now and and all of my weight really wants to be on my big toe
and really on my heel here okay and we could be different uh set up in terms of you know where we
have uh you know more of the weight distribution on on the inside of the outside based off of where
the toe position is right but i do want to be a little bit more into the to the heel there
and you know especially on this side i want to have more of my weight on the inside okay because
i'm really turning that heel right so it's like eighty percent of the weight on the inside part
of the foot ninety percent of the weight on the inside part of the foot on the left side
i'm pretty well distributed i'm not really inside outside anything like that right and then as i'm
transitioning forward i'm transitioning my weight all the way through right so you want to think of
it as like a slow trajectory so if i'm at 60 40 here we'd want to go from 59 58 57 55 you know
all the way 50 45 40 as i'm transitioning through right so i'm going in i'm transitioning my weight
forward and there's a transition from all or 60 of my weight here to getting a hundred percent onto
my left leg right or 40 percent here right and getting all of this weight onto that rifle and
that what is what ends up driving you through the throw is getting all of that weight here
right and and that's going to end up being able to pull yourself through now we also want to be
thinking about the elbow we also want to think about the wrist flick we also want to be thinking
about you know the the front arm position or you know getting understanding of where those should
be right you don't necessarily need to be thinking about all those parts of the throw as you're going
through the throat it's going to be impossible to think about all that different stuff but
if you can go and watch yourself right when you do the breakdowns and we're able to see you know what
are the things that we need to improve on we can start to isolate okay you know as i'm getting that
weight distribution i need to be pulling my front arm for instance or i need to get my wrist on top
right and then as we can start to get better and like we talked about in the last video we want to
be able to compartmentalize things a little bit better to be able to better grasp the information
and really be able to feel what it is that we need to improve but that was just a good
you know base of being able to understand how we want to be utilizing the the ground force right
and pushing down into the ground to be able to make it so we can throw the ball further
all right so as always guys thanks for watching if you have any questions you can go ahead and
leave those down in the comments below like the video subscribe the channel we're going to keep on
producing videos just like this that will help you in improving as a quarterback we really want
to make sure that you're able to understand all the parts that go into being a great quarterback
and there's a lot of things right there's a lot of things to potentially improve on which is really
why we want to do the breakdowns right because once you can start to break it all down or i do
all these all these videos to make it so you can get a better understanding of the concepts better
understanding the information i can send these to the guys that are in the program too but if you
don't really understand what are the big things you need to work on and really get the coaching
and again the understanding or the clarity behind it it becomes a lot more difficult to be able to
see continued progress right continued change there's going to be times where you can make it
i know a lot of you guys are watching these videos and getting a lot better and i always appreciate
the comments i always appreciate you guys reaching out and telling me you know how much you guys have
improved i think that's great keep watching you know if you can't afford the program yet or you
can't get into you know quarterback university or anything like that you know just keep on you know
giving us the likes giving us a thumbs up give us a comment that makes a big big impact i'm going to
try to get some some merch here in the next couple of months make it so you can guys can maybe get
that uh and be able to support that in your your local high school or or you know seven on sevens
whatever the case may be um but yeah you know if you guys can get into the program and be able to
get breakdowns you know you're only going to be able to expedite the whole process make it so you
can just get that much more improvement that much faster so of course that's a big recommendation of
mine uh because you know i see the results i see the improvement and so you know i want you guys
to be able to be a part of that as well so as always guys thanks for watching here again like
subscribe comment that all makes a big impact here for continuing to be able to grow the channel
