It’s Friday, here’s a nice little FREEBIE from my private session with
In just 2 minutes we are able to take her from pushing the football and being elbow dominant - to understanding how to use biomechanics of the arm to create a catapult with zero rotation. Save this drill!!
Drill: “Scapular Throw” aka SCAP THROW
Emphasis: Zero rotation of the upper body (trunk), isolate the throwing shoulder, and elevate the elbow to open up the scapula and prepare for flexion/extension through the throwing cycle.
Tip: Elevate the elbow to approx shoulder height, the front nose of the football should be pointing straight forward and the rear nose of the ball should be pointing directly backwards.
(By opening up the elbow, and the hand - the ball ball is in the ideal position to create the WHIP 🌪️ - pull the elbow through first and allow the wrist & hand in a relaxed state to follow the elbow)
We are creating a slingshot with our elbow, so that we are not PUSHING the football, but rather we are PULLING the football.
Once you PULL IT, you’ll never go back to the days of pushing the football and endless elbow & shoulder pain.
If and I can get it dialed in - in less than 2 minutes then you can too!
DM me for mechanics consults or to book your first private session.
