hey what's up everyone morey croson here and today we're going to be going over the actions
of the wrist when throwing the football and we're going to start the video right now
this is the newest edition of the performance
reach your individual goals you don't want to just talk about straight lines
we also want to talk about your ability quick we break down your video let's make you
into the quarterback i know you can become alright so i'm really excited about this video
i think it could be really really beneficial when you actually take the information and can actually
apply it now you know this is not going to be a video for everybody right it's gonna be somebody
it's gonna be for really people that are looking to get a consistent spiral might have some issues
with you know the finish i've made a lot of videos i talk a lot about the wrist position and so i
really want you to have some clarity behind that you know there's going to be some people that will
you know already have a lot of success within the throw and for you know you might not want
to change how the ball is coming out of your wrist but i do want to give you some clarity at least on
you know here is how i'm able to throw the football this isn't the you know way that maybe
you are going to end up throwing the football or you know it's not going to work for everybody
right um so i don't want to i always get negative comments and stuff like that so i just want to be
able to preface it a little bit here so you know basically what's happening as we're looking at the
wrist so this ends up being the main thing that i see is you know people have you know some like
tightness in this part of the wrist right because what happens is i'm gonna go towards the end here
so what happens is that like as i'm coming through i'm really trying to do that with my pinky right
you can see how my pinky's coming forward right here because what happens is like as people get to
this position there ends up being this time where they almost just like bend their their wrists back
more almost like this action right so see that action right there and that makes it so then
the nose of the football ends up pointing like straight up into the air instead of turning right
so you can see i have a little bit of a time period where the nose of the football is facing
that's not a good arrow more upwards like that but it's never you know all the way drop down like
this where it's like all the way facing straight up really what i'm trying to do is like i said
before i'm really trying to turn my wrist here and make it so my pinky is kind of turning the ball
and getting the you know football to be facing straight ahead now what's important here as this
is happening is and i'm going to go and take away a little bit but i am stretching out the pack i
the more breakdowns i see the more i see like you guys got to figure out how to stretch out your
your pec as soon as you possibly can so the sooner you can create a large amount of stretch within
this area the better off you're going to be when throwing the football sorry for the notifications
they're in the back but um yeah the better you're going to be in throwing the football so you can
see here i'm getting that stretch again that knows the football is facing straight ahead but the main
focus is being able to get my wrist back on top because you want to get to this neutral position
right and really as i'm coming through here now i'm doing the opposite action so i want
to stay away from this action and instead try to get to that action right here boom right
just that medial deviation there of coming inside because that ends up making it so then i can come
forward and through so see how my wrist is going down here it ends up being like a downward action
with my wrist and with my pinky there and then from there it goes into more of like a flexion
action which is where you get like that that wrist flick coming down and through quarterback
university is where committed quarterbacks come to take their game to the next level
improve your throwing power velocity accuracy and get the ball out of your hands faster
not only other videos to improve your mechanics but there's also workout tutorials and also
drills to help you improve as well we want to help you get noticed which is why we also included a
recruiting services section you'll have quizzes that you'll be able to take to be able to make
sure that you actually get the information and they're able to repeat it back in case you have
any shoulder back wrist or elbow soreness there is a section to address that as well
click the link here in order to get started thanks for watching
okay but there ends up being a lot of actions that are happening here right so we got that
pinky rotation boom and that makes it so then my wrist can get on top of the ball this is where
you guys want to get to how can you get your wrist in a neutral position with your hand on
top of the ball we need to get more quarterbacks that are consistently able to throw like this
and once you can get there it's going to make a huge improvements on your consistency your
accuracy your ability to throw the ball further all that stuff's going to improve a lot once you
can get to that spot this one i zoomed in actually a little bit more that's probably a better option
okay so again it's not like there's never an opportunity or never a situation where
the the um wrist ends up being flexed and this is this part of the throw by the way
like all in here there's a lot of of subjectivity to it right there's not objectivity objective is
like you know it has to be one way subjectivity is like this is the way that works for me right so
everybody's going to be a little bit different in terms of how their elbow is going to come
through how they're stretching things like that again what we want to avoid is too much time
with our arm going back this way and instead optimize how much time does it take for our
arm to start coming through forward and through in that direction right the sooner we can get to that
the more force we're going to have on the ball the better timing the better release time all
those things come from that position this isn't easy i don't want to make it seem like hey yeah i
just you know picked up the football and figured this out within you know a couple hours no this
took a lot of time for me to be able to you know work on and consistently improve in order to get
the you know results that i was looking for okay here again so you can see how quick i go from
ball going back to then rotating here right so this whole time the ball's turning the ball is
turning the ball straight so we don't want to be locked with our wrist right so when
you're coming back here start turning i'm already starting i'm doing this action now
let me get to this boom i'm already starting this action right this action happens really fast here
but when i have a lot of different things happening within the elbow and the arm that action
doesn't happen as quickly as i'm also holding a football right and this is in super slow motion
as well so the point being is that this whole time i'm turning that that hand to make it so then i
can get that elbow through because that ends up being a big thing is like the further the ball
ends up being away from your body the again more time it's going to take for the ball to get out
of your hands the more inaccuracy problems you're going to end up having the less amount of force
you're going to be able to to generate and create because now your body has to focus on deceleration
earlier on than when you do here right here i'm in a position where i could really come down
hard through the throw and really this release wants to come out in front of your body right
so you can see how the ball is coming forward all the way out in front of me and then i'm
able to release coming straight down and through rather than getting stuck with the ball coming
all the way out to the side right when you end up getting this ball too far out here then you
release the ball early the the wrist is not in near as much of a neutral position instead
of it being here we'll see it be like flex like this right it'll look like you're holding on to
the the football like you are a piece of pizza and that ends up making a big difference in how
you know the ball comes out of your hand so you know that ends up being a deep dive
into a lot of the parts within you know the body uh and within the wrist right so a lot of it again
has to do is this is the pinky here this the thumb right so it has to do with these bones the range
of motion within these bones you do have to have strong fingers we do have to have range of motion
within the wrist it's you know there's people that have a large degree of naturally gifted throwing
power because they have the right strength in their hands because they have the right range
of motion their wrist that makes a big difference here so if you're not naturally gifted with that
you got to work on it you got to strengthen your hands you know jerry rice would would
catch bricks that was one of the things that he talked about was what you know helped him
be such a great receiver right so it's not always genetics it could also be how you live your life
you know what choices that you make and if you could start doing this at a younger age then it
can really make a big difference so hopefully this makes a lot of sense for you guys for the
people that are looking to you know learn how to be a quarterback or teach their kids how to be a
quarterback or teach one of the quarterbacks that are maybe within their program how to be better
this could be a great video to really make a big difference there's you can easily add five to ten
yards in your throwing power uh just by improving your wrist position you know you could easily add
10 miles an hour in terms of throwing velocity by improving your wrist position i've seen it time
and time again it's just one of those things that you got to work on you got to work on you got to
work on because it's a completely different feel you know when the ball comes out of your hands
right now it feels a certain way that way if you're throwing it with your wrist flat
is not correct so it's got to start to feel different in order for you to know
that you're actually making a change so let me know if you guys have any questions as
always check the description down below to find out more about some of the things that we are
you know offering right now we have some great things coming up in 2022 super excited about but
you know throw breakdowns throw program uh 28 day uh i guess that's a speed program but there's a
lot of things down in the description down below uh reach out to me as well give me a call we'd
be happy to help you guys out any way that i can and as always thanks for watching talk to you soon
