These training tips will help Quarterbacks, Pitchers and throwing athletes.
When it comes to training and the weight room there's a number of things that we quarterbacks and throwers in general to consider. Everybody wants their thrower to have a healthy shoulder but you don't want your strong safety to have a bad shoulder either.
For throwers here are some special things that we want to make sure we take into consideration. When you look at a thrower, they've got a developed arm slot. Because throwers are one handed for that motion the right arm is going to have a very different groove that it likes to press in opposed to the left. So when we're doing pressing movements, like a bench press, I'm going to avoid using a bar with any of my overhead throwers, because one arm is going to want to be in a specific arm slot. If I lock them both together, neither one of them is in the ideal place. For that shoulder, which is one of the most if not the most complex joints in our body. That being the case, you're going to lock in and tie into the bench different on your right side than your left. So the number one thing I would say is, I would I spend a lot of time with exercises like push ups, or floor pressing, dumbbell work, dumbbell incline work, lots of things like that. But we avoid things like locking into a bar, whether it be horizontally or vertically with a throwing athlete. The other thing and this is important for me no matter what sport athlete, it's imperative that we have a strong back, our posterior chain, it gets talked about but a lot of people don't know what it is. Basically, the muscles on the back of the body must be developed to be a better athlete, but to be a healthier thrower, so that you can reduce the risk of shoulder and elbow injuries, making sure that we have back exercises such as dumbbell rowing, cable rowing, inverted rowing on a bar or some sort of strap, those movements must happen in my opinion for a an athlete every single time they set foot in a weight room. I would suggest throwing athletes perform one and a half times as many rows as they do presses.
It's also imperative to create symmetry or balance in rotary athletes.
We spend a lot of time doing rotary med ball work or anti rotational exercises. As an example, we're doing a med ball rotary throw at a wall, I'll do twice as many throws on the non dominant side as I do on the dominant side, especially for baseball hitter, or thrower. And then, you know, let's talk about quarterbacks though, one things I love about quarterbacks is they're all fantastic athletes. And they're fantastic athletes, because they're so competitive. They have a very high athletic IQ, but I think we get what we inspect, not what we expect. So if on a consistent basis asked you to take drops on your left side, you're going to get better at It's never gonna be as pretty as the other side. But, the point of it is to create that symmetry so that you can move equally and and be able to escape the pocket and be able to go both directions out of the pocket and avoid pass rushes and things of that nature. There's more to playing the quarterback position than just being able to spin it.
So add exercises that develop the posterior chain and develop balance and symmetry to your quarterback training if you want to improve your overall athletic skills and play at your best.
