hey what's up everyone morey croson here and today we'll be going over how many
steps you should be taking your 40 and we're going to start the video right now
alright so we got jonathan taylor here on the right and chase clay pool here
on the left two of the premier athletes in the nfl i thought it'd be better to be able to use
really top tier athletes when doing this we have jonathan taylor who's
510 and chase claypool who is six foot four i like being able to do two different heights
give you a better understanding of you know how much distance you've been taking per step how
many you know steps you should be taking the 40 i think it's all really important i'm gonna also
give you an idea timing wise where he's at here so first action we're gonna say is that eight two
and these end up being a little bit inaccurate here just because you know timing wise there's
sometimes some differences but we got seven steps right there right so we got one two three four
five six seven right and he's crossing you know he started it at 8.2 and let's just go with that
seven step hits at 9.9 right so that's 1.7 in terms of you know how much time it took him from
that start he's really popped across that already so he got under he got past that you know 10 yard
mark in under 1.7 seconds but that's typically what i say for people is ten yards and it wants
to be seven steps okay and then with chase clay pool here on the left we're gonna go and we
got one or let's actually look at the time first we'll go 100 or 6.10 okay and then we got one two
three four five six and you know he's to pass that you know in that time period so let's just say
he's passed around right there so it's at 7.8 so again we're at about a 1.7 right and i think again
that's a key right seven steps i think is going to be the most that you want to be able to have
in that first 10 yards but if you can get underneath that that ends up being good anthony
schwartz did you know he obviously ran faster than both these guys these guys both ran 4-4
but he took at seven steps he was a little bit underneath 10 yards so you know you could get
away with it but you know a lot of guys that i see run sub 4 5 at that 10 yard mark uh they're at 1.7
and you know obviously anthony shorts is way underneath 1.7 but it took him about seven
steps uh to get that distance all right and now we're gonna go to the next part here so seven
eight nine ten eleven twelve again you know this ends up being another important thing we wanna be
at 12 steps when you're passing that 20 yard mark and this is really when you start to
open up your your sprinting okay so this is his seventh step eight nine ten you know he's really
passed at 11. so six foot four you're past that at a little bit higher than if you're five ten
okay but you really gotta be able to reach and get your feet out in front of you
in order to be able to get to that point where you can get to this 20 yards within
that 20 step you know time period or sorry that 12 step time period now we're going to go for the
last part 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 not quite there so you know 20 to 20 and a half steps at 5 10 okay
and then we got so this is 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 again probably you know that's closer to 18
and a half so six foot four 18 and a half steps to run 40. 40 yards 5 foot 10 about you know 20
20 and a half so you know i'd say somewhere between 5 10 and 6 foot 1
you could probably get away with you know being able to get between 20 and a half to you know 20
maybe down to 19 and a half once you get above six foot one you should be shooting closer to
you know 19 and a half to 19 okay and that would be anywhere between you know six foot one to six
foot three ish right and then once you get to six foot three now we're getting closer to under 19
and getting closer to 18 and a half to 18 even i know um cam newton also was in like that 18
flat in terms of his steps at six foot five right so you know obviously as you get taller
you end up wanting to um pick up more distance per set so you know you really got to be able to
open up that stride maximize that stride okay and that ends up being an important thing but you know
the taller you are you know this gives you an idea of what you want to be aiming for so take note
of how much time are you because once you get go and understand this information you can backtrack
right now you know okay it's taking me eighteen and a half steps right or maybe you know you're
six foot four and it takes you 20 steps now you can say okay i need to improve my turnover
right um or if you're six foot four and you're taking eighteen and a half steps
okay now you know you're taking the right amount of steps now you need to know you
understand the thing to improve is gonna be how much time you're spending on the ground
same type of thing for you know if you're five foot ten if you're taking too many steps right
if it's taking you 22 steps at 510 now you know okay i need to go and get better within that
area you know i need to get pick up more distance per step i need to optimize my stride now you can
get into front side mechanics backstab mechanics whatever the case may be same type of thing when
we're looking at you know okay um now you get down to 20 and a half steps let's say okay but
you're still running four seven okay he ran four four here um and so if you're running four seven
now you know you can improve how much time you're spending on the ground and being able to optimize
that your plyometrics how much you know depth jumps you know things like that things that are
going to make it so you're more springy is going to be where you want to put a bigger focus to be
able to make the improvements within that area so uh as always guys thanks for watching this video
if it helped you go ahead and click that thumbs up down below subscribe to the channel if you
have any questions comments or recommendations you can leave those down below you know we have
a bunch of things in the description to help you out with your sprinting we got the 28 day
free speed challenge we got speed breakdowns we got a bunch of speed program options all of that
is in the description down below uh always trying to help you guys out this is that time where you
could really make a big improvement in you know your overall recruiting in in general right
more schools interested in you more opportunities at the next level by going to some of these camps
