hey what's up everyone! Morey Croson here and
today we're going to be going over how to effectively get your elbow
up and through when you're throwing and we're going to start the video right now
all right so i had a little bit of construction going on at my house so my neighbors had some
construction going on it was loud they're using nail guns everything i was trying to make this
video i just didn't think it would be good so i decided to come to a local park we're doing
it here got a little bit more of some fresh air and all that type of good stuff so happy to do
this video i still think that this content is going to be really really good and i want to
be able to get it out when it's fresh on my mind and so that's why i was like i can't not do this
today i have to do it today so if you like the information as always click that thumbs up down
below subscribe to the channel if you haven't already any questions comments or recommendations
leave those down below we're gonna hop right into it so you know big thing that i've been noticing
here with quarterbacks is there's a release where you know you'll end up coming a little
bit more right up over the top here during the actual throw you know get that elbow all the way
up over the top and and the issue that ends up happening when when uh quarterbacks do that is
they'll kind of stop the elbow and end up pushing the ball a lot could have some fatigue
in that that elbow here right some overuse within that elbow and a lot of where i end
up throwing is going to be a little bit more like that rotational type of movement so i'm here and
i'm rotating through as i come through here okay and so i don't end up having that issue as much
but i think that it's going to be an important thing to be able to address is being able to come
all the way up and over the top during that throw so we're going to go into that type of release
and what ends up being the big you know fundamental key which is to continue the elbow
action and there's two different ways that we want to be able to continue that elbow action one is
going to be getting all the way down right so when you're coming all the way when you're coming up
and through like this you want to be able to get the elbow to come down through the throw okay and
then we also want to be able to get the elbow to come across right so we don't want to lose out on
the downward movement and the across movement now when i'm coming across here you know i'm getting
a cross movement and i don't have to really come down too much because most of the action is coming
from around here but when you're coming up over the top you don't want to stop too much up here
because then you'll end up just trying to push that ball okay so we want to be able to work
on that a good drill to be able to do that is just working this part right so we already went through
that transition phase so i'm here i have that note that knows the football facing straight ahead
and then from here i'm just going to flick the wrist and like push down and come across during
the throw and you just want to do that to the different sides so you want to do that going to
the left right get to the same position elbow through drive that elbow down get here going to
the right okay we want to go elbow down and coming all the way through and work on that wrist flick
to make it so we can get a consistency of driving that elbow through and down and again this is if
you're having this issue here or if you notice that you're like stopping the throw or pushing the
throw it'll be a good way to be able to correct that so another important thing to be able to
understand here is that when quarterbacks have this action a lot of times what ends
up happening is when they're loading they end up allowing the ball to go here or even straight back
could end up being an inefficient movement because of how over the top you are right and so as you're
going in you're stepping we're loading right we're getting into this position i would say you
want to keep this ball close to your body right don't allow that ball to get away keep it coming
close so then you can come right up over the top right and you're going to get into this position
and then from there again we want to go wrist all or elbow always through and then wrist through in
order to flick it but that's an important thing to be able to understand is the efficiency of
the throat right so we want to be able to get the ball out of your hands quicker to make it so that
your lower body can be more effective in the throw and the way to be able to do that is to keep that
that ball close to your body as you're coming through i'm going to show you a couple examples
all right guys so again if you like the information go ahead and click that thumbs
up subscribe the channel that really helps us out a ton and then i really recommend you guys
checking out we have an end season program going on right now where we go over breakdowns in-game
footage give you drills exercises that's where a lot of this information actually came from is by
being able to help some quarterbacks in season and their mechanics and making sure that they're able
to get everything timed up right i want to be able to provide some value for you guys as well
and just recognize that you know i'm committed 100 to being able to help you guys out i'm going
to come to the park i'll do whatever i just shot a bunch of drills for people that included some of
those same drills i just did here that you guys watch but also other ones that are specific to
their needs and that's the big thing with the in-season program is that i'm going to give you
what it is that you need to do in order to improve exercises drills you know breakdowns
be able to hop on zooms whatever the case may be we want to help you guys in improving your
mechanics making sure you understand how to be able to be more accurate throw the ball with more
power get the ball on your hands quicker and we do that within the in-season program as well as the
throw breakdown so throw breakdowns a little bit cheaper you don't get as much and you don't get as
much consistency but that is still a good option if you're looking for some quick help in improving
your mechanics but i really recommend the end season program i'm making it 100 off right now
so you really can't get a better deal and you're going to get so much out of being able to get
in-game footage right right now such a unique opportunity because it's actually during the
season so the feedback that you get is going to be more around gameplay right so we don't want to
end up having too much of an impact with creating huge amount of changes within the mechanics but we
do want to refine and tune the areas necessary to make it so you're going to consistently get better
over this period again getting the ball out of your hands quicker getting a little bit more
power on the football those are things that can still improve during the season don't
miss out on the opportunity check out the link down below and we'll talk to you soon
