alright what's up everyone Morey Croson here from the performance lab of California and we
have another new breakdown for you today on Bryce young I know we haven't done any breakdowns on
quarterbacks for a little bit so thought we'd go ahead and get that going so now that we're I guess
you know going into more quarterback step one of the things I've been trying to do it with caliber
as well is here with Bryce young is just show some guys there wouldn't in the a little bit undersized
right comparable to a lot more of an overall group and see how some of these guys really do
it and in creating force and and and being able to achieve so you know one of the things that stands
out with me or to me with Bryce young is that he starts off very tall and if you guys don't
know brushing is he's probably the number one dual threat quarterback in the upcoming class
of 2020 class you know certainly top two top three you know I'd quarterbacks in going into
into the twenty twenty year so yeah definitely guys is gonna make some noise in rule 11 and a
a top overall quarterback so I think committed to USC too so we're going here and first thing that
stands out you can see how he's pretty tall but then once he loads that he really drops see how
much he drops his his overall height goes from pretty tall to then dropping a good amount and
then once he drops notice how he does a really good job of beginning the process of shifting
his weight in his lower body right so see how his lower body starts to move this way right as
he's keeping his upper body turned back that way sorry the arrows are not always great but right
so see you guys loading that back leg he started to begin pushing off of that back leg see how that
heals good starting to come up and as he's pushing off that back leg now he's keeping his upper body
back and keeping it loaded I'm a big proponent of you know two main things when we're looking
at somebody sprinting one or somebody throwing is that one how well do they load and the other
is how well do they finish right if both those things are good then you're gonna set yourself
up for a lot more success because now you know the transition everybody transitions a little
bit differently right but if you're not able to do these two steps then we just gotta start from
there and so you could see how well that Bryce young can load here and then from there now he
starts transitioning he's continuing to create rotation within that the lower body within that
hip as he's cycling around he's keeping that front arm really locked into place to control
that front shoulder I can help with accuracy and then he's going and he's really doing a good job
of keeping good height within his arm and just noticed the Rick the wrist flick right he does
a lot of he gets a cradle a lot of force within the wrist and also he honestly creates a lot of
force boots with in the back right because he when he starts he keeps those hips really far where he
lets those hips go really far out in front of him and then from there he's kind of leaning back with
the spine and then as he goes through he finishes through you can see how he puts a lot of movement
there on the spine and that helps him really put a lot on the ball he has a very very strong arm by
the way guys for the size that he is especially I mean he's really able to create a lot of force so
that's why again we wanted to do this it's just so then you guys could really see how somebody
that is from a size perspective you know normal guy right he's not somebody that when you look at
anything okay that's you know definitely a you know top quality passer but then when you get
him on the field go to football in his hands it's like oh wow he probably over performs with or he
does over perform in comparison to a lot of guys that are a lot bigger than him because of some of
these things that he does really well again it really starts with the ground and notice when
what happens when when you have that kind of tall position right so notice his head here and then
when you go and you go from there to being down and here what that does that creates more grab
force that makes it so he's pushing grout into the ground more as he's starting which makes it
so you know you're creating you're creating a lot more torque when in order to press down the ground
as you stand up right now and you just pressed down into the ground with your feet notice how
you have to use your core notice how you have to keep your pelvis engaged notice how you have to
change your actual posture in order to really be able to create a lot of force down to the ground
now let's let's put that into the actual throw and we could make significant changes and have
significant benefits in your throwing mechanics by starting to put an emphasis on downward force
into the ground okay now from there notice if you even see from the back how much stretch he's
getting within his core he's letting those hips go right because he's able to let those hips go
he's putting a lot of really is putting a lot of stress right there onto his lower back area where
he's really stretching so that you know there's maybe a little bit of a risk there within within
those muscles for some overuse so you definitely want to be able to keep that nice in and stretched
out but he also is creating a lot of load there so now as he comes through you know it goes from very
shortened very stretched right so this is very stretched and - as he throws really lengthen right
see how much you've lengthened out in that area okay so he's actually using that area to create
force him again look at the position of the ball he doesn't do what he doesn't spend any time with
that ball back behind the head I also noticed he doesn't do a lot with the wrist he's not overdoing
it with the wrist there as he's loading he just kind of lets up the the ball go back to hand go
back and then hard elbow through as the elbow is coming through he's keeping a good position there
good wrist position good elbow position I would say that the hand or the ball might be getting
a little bit too far away from his head right out you can probably get that elbow through a
little bit more as he's coming through but either way he's doing excellent job getting look at that
wrist like right there it was really extending off of the you know really extending the wrist really
putting a good amount of range there and then he's finishing so out accidentally excellently a
lot of times I'll see you guys as they come down and as they're finishing they really don't come
all the way down across like that which limits their ability to really create as much force so
he's doing an excellent job of being able to you know create that wrist let the wrist snap and then
coming all the way down across during his throw so yeah really really good stuff there as always guys
they watching these videos if you're interested in signing up for our online Authority program I
would highly highly recommend it especially we're not getting any coaching or if you're
really looking to get a lot of a lot more velocity a lot more throwing power on your ball you know
we're able to provide a lot a lot a lot of value for quarterbacks that are that are looking to make
improvements in their throw from both a technical and mechanical perspective and also from a see the
exercise perspective where we start to give you some more ideas for what you can do to strengthen
in your your shoulder strengthen your core certain drills you can maybe work on we're working with a
lot of quarterbacks right now on adding a lot of specifics into their regimen to make sure
that they're really able to predict their results very very well in enjoying the program so how guys
that are watching the Pro Tour that are in the program I just say keep on working guys keep on
working you get a lot better I hope this video was able to connect with you and the guys that
are interested I definitely say at least at least set up a phone call figured out a little bit more
about what we're doing and how we could provide some more value to you all right let me know if
you guys have any questions and we will see you soon you know I hope you really enjoyed it if
you did you can subscribe down below and that way you get updates on any of the new videos
that we get also if you want to check out some of our other breakdowns for speed and throwing
yet exercises also jumping mechanics videos a lot of great stuff within our Channel hope you enjoy
