what's everyone morey croson here and today we're gonna be going over how to throw with your hips at
the common thing that I get is that people want to understand how to use the lower body better
everybody's always saying hey you know you're throwing too much with your arm you used too
much upper body but a little off and you know this is going to be a full-on tutorial of how
to use your lower body in order to maximize your performance with it and throw open your the video
so first big thing when actually you know throwing with your lower body and the biggest mistake that
ends up happening is that all if it's a sequence type thing right so it needs to happen where your
lower body's creating that push off before your upper body is so for anybody that goes
it immediately opens up their front arm you're ruining your opportunity to be able to throw the
ball with your lower body because you're opening up in front of your front arm needs to be closed
as you're initiating your push off through the back leg to make it to now your hips can begin
to rotate and once your hips begin to rotate now that means that you're actually able to push off
and utilize your lower body all right so that's gonna be second one make sure that front front
short was closed because if you do it either Center stuff and your front shoulder flies open
it doesn't matter okay so step number two is gonna be really utilizing the back leg right so what has
to happen is that as soon as you step right give everybody when they're gonna go and throw they're
gonna lift their foot off of there their left leg or their front leg right they're gonna put
all the weight into the back leg so when that happens what you want to do is you want to use
the momentum of that step to now push off right so it doesn't want to just be a step right so I'm not
using my left leg to make it so I go from here to here I'm gonna use my back leg to make it so I go
from here to there okay so what that will do is it will get my momentum to start moving towards
the target so step one is to be able to move laterally right this is what baseball pitchers
do as well as quarterbacks do what quarterbacks do is different is that when you're going here you
also want to lift the heel up off the ground and begin to rotate okay so it's gonna be a lateral
movement first mega so we're going here and then we also want to rotate with the foot and get the
hips to start rotating around so now you can start to feel your glute turn on right so as I
start to twist like this you're gonna start to feel your hamstrings to start to activate your
glutes your glutes start activating them from here what I'm gonna be thinking about staying
up top is keeping my front shoulder closed and maybe so I'm nice controlled through you know my
upper body so I'm really utilizing all of my force there and maximizing that disassociation because
that's the big thing order to throw your hips you got to be able to get your hips going before your
upper body's going so how do I do that I got to be able to push it rotate together right I can't go
lateral and then try and turn at the end so that I end up throwing with everything together I need to
be able to get my hips rotating before my upper body rotates okay so that's another big part of
the actual throw then the last thing that you need to be able to do and this is gonna be better from
the back angle is that as I'm transferring all my weight forward I need to rotate the page so
this hit comes all the way through it doesn't come out to the side I don't stop I want to be
able to rotate it so I can get all the way on the outside part of my foot so that's gonna be a lot
more difficult when it comes to the deep throws but you want to be able to push off and get full
rotation make sure you get all units all the way through to the other side so last thing with being
able to throw the histor you got to be able to do is you also got to be able to step to make
it so you can get your hip to all the way through so if you step and you go here or you don't open
yourself up enough right so some people will go and immediately turn open as well this will also
make it so you can't push and rotate off the back leg okay so you want to be able to and also that's
going to be that front leg just moving like that if you push and turn then you could do that but
you can't just go like that then try to push off the back leg okay so you want to be able to go and
push turn open up that that foot but you don't want to go and close it off here right so a lot
of people will go here or you might even step off too far to the side and then I'm going to
see you can use hip so the step is also going to be important part of being able to get your hips
all the way through so that's going to be part number four I'm being able to like your your
throw up I usually utilizing your hips alright so let's do a couple talks here so that you can see
