hey what's up everyone morey croson from the performance lab and today we are breaking down
Randy Moss I'm super excited about doing this breakdown I'm actually kind of disappointed in
myself that I haven't done this breakdown before because Randy Moss is just one of
the best football players and the one of the fastest football players and and just has such
a huge legend to him with the whole mossing and everything like that so you know without
further ado we'll go ahead and break this down if you like the content in this channel we do
a bunch of breakdowns and things like this for a budget of what types of athletes football athletes
quarterbacks pitchers a lot of different things jumping so you look more into the channel and
if you like it then you can subscribe and we're gonna just go and hop right in so you know big
thing with Randy Moss I was just so unique was his frame and how big of a he was being you know
six foot four and still being able to have as much of a impact on the game from like a speed
side and also you know going across the middle I mean he was just one of the most complete football
players ever but what you could see here is the acceleration you know just such a great job of
getting a spine out in front of them when he's starting they're getting his head out in front
getting full extension in the back of his leg so it really it's a lot about how you start guys if
you yep if you couldn't start very well and get into your transition that has a huge impact on
your ability to actually reach your full speed so here you drive his leg through his landing nicely
on on his foot more the balls of his feet there as he's going and he's striding out and then full
arms when he goes through I mean obviously you can't with the right arm but look at how much
you've he fully extends that left arm really opens up and then extends the legs and cycles
through nicely that's just a great job of being able to interact with the ground landing on the
balls of his feet each one of these steps and also maintaining a very upright positioning and
he just had a nice momentum and smoothness to him so when you transfer onto this leg you know
he would kind of get his full body to shift from his right leg onto his left leg then back onto
his right leg and he just had a nice lateral shift kind of like what Usain Bolt does in his
shifting and being able to like really nicely shift from one leg on to the other but still
maintain a lot of speed so even when he goes here and he lands he's able to just land very
quickly absorb all that weight and all that force suit legging and push off an extend and uses that
to really separate from people and really opens up that that the back of his life that back leg
turnover is so important and being able to run fast as a sprinter overall minute just go ahead
and play it and full-speed and the whole thing right here with the circle is is some re-roll
who is this corner right here I ran a 4-3 and he just was able to run by him pretty easily
I'm just gonna play the full clip just because I think it's really cool to be able to see I've
just run by everybody and I would say the big thing just goes to the the strength through
the hamstrings to the strength of the turnover right just goes here immediately drives that leg
through he's able to get his foot a lot further behind him than what a lot of us can because he
was six four and then able to snap it right back underneath and through so that's what's important
is being able to get that leg back being able to extend push off and then from there snap that leg
up and through sometimes people get their feet too far back behind them but you know what ends
up happening is that you have to just find the right timing for you being able to push off and
create a lot of force when pushing off the ground and then being able to snap that leg back through
alright because that's what he's able to do very very well as he snaps that leg through so then he
can get the the front leg mechanics correct and being able to extend the leg and then drive up
underneath that's what's super important is that if you start to lose the good front side mechanics
because of an inability to push off and get the leg back through behind you then you're not going
to be able to run as fast as possibly can so the big thing is being able to snap off with that
that back leg really extend off that back leg and still give yourself the timing to be able
to drive your leg forward and through and extend the leg out in front and then pull back and drive
that leg up underneath you as long as you can get that that foot to be able to snap back underneath
you then you could probably actually increase the push off that you're getting behind you and allow
your foot to get a little bit further back so you know there's always that that get in game
that you're playing with as a sprinter to help you and maximizing your turnover and improving
your overall speed alright I hope that was an informative video for you guys if you have any
questions you can reach out we have a bunch of free content below and we will talk soon
