How to Throw a Football Farther

- Quick story time:
A year ago I had surgery on my ACL & didn’t do much for a few weeks following the procedure. When I finally returned to throwing, my arm strength dramatically decreased & I couldn’t figure out why. I was struggling to throw just 50 yards. It wasn’t until I relearned how to actually use the speed & acceleration of my hips in my throw that I started to climb back up in arm strength & overall velocity. The timing of the turn to the release of the ball can’t be emphasized enough. Just pay close attention to any nfl qb & you will see. They leverage their big muscles to accelerate the ball. When u figure out how to do this consistently & effectively, your life as a qb/football thrower will change. As of recent, I’ve been focusing on & applying these concepts I talk about in this video every time I play catch/train. I’m a good athlete already & can throw tf out of the ball, but since really focusing on the specific timing of the sequence & some of the positions that are favorable for power generation, I’ve seen significant measurable progress in a short amount of time. I made this video because I know most of you probably aren’t where you want to be when it comes to arm strength, but that doesn’t mean everything can’t change for you. I hope this video puts you on the right path to figuring it out for yourself 🙏

Much appreciated, hope it helped 🙏

Great content, I would appreciate if you could share more about your throwing technique. I think your throwing motion is one of the best I’ve seen online … it has less of a baseball coil and you load the ball faster than what I’ve been seeing online.
Thank you! I study & attempt to emulate aaron rodgers & will be making a video covering this technique soon
Really great advice! Going to try to implement that timing with my front foot when I throw. Never thought of it that way. Thanks a lot!
Hope it helps 🙏 thank u

Great informative content. Best of luck with growing the channel.
I’m curious on what your max throwing distance is. Also, do you think adding on weight can drastically increase throwing distance if you transfer that mass into the throw with great technique. Adding good weight and filling out a frame I mean, say a skinny person putting on 30-50 pounds on a 6’3” frame.
Yes, but when it comes to athletic explosive movements, I value functional strength & mobility over pure mass

I appreciate u saying this, hope it helped 🙏
Hey i am a german QB and you helped me lot improving my throwin´g technique. But i have big trouble to get my hips in sync with my upperbody. Especially my throwing arm. Do you have one or two more drills to get this fixed?
Thanks a lot for your videos an keep it up!
Really focus on the part when I’m talking about reaching out of your frame in the wind up & instead turning your body back. I think doing this & getting your elbow in front of your shoulder faster should help, because the more u reach outside of your frame, the better your timing has to be to be consistent🙏

Hey man I was wondering if there was anyway i could get in touch with you and send you a vid of my throwing the ball and have you possibly tell me what to change
Throwdimes.com ‼️
yo dimes quick question... i've noticed you've been deleting some of your other videos like how to have aimbot accuracy and your compilations of throwing perfect spirals, i was just wondering why you've been deleting them and if there's any way I could watch them?
I was wondering the same question
I took them down bc I’m remaking them but 10x better. Stay tuned, gonna start going crazy all spring & summer 🙏
I haven’t tested it yet but does it make u throw farther
can you make a video specifically on the grip of the football specifically and why you need to have air pocket?
Yeah I’ll talk about this soon 🤝
OK thankyou@@dimes.

Hi, thanks for the video and sharing your findings in throwing mechanism.
What you suggest for the ball height on chest before you start loading up (moving elbow back)? The starting point (place where you keep the ball before loading motion starts) effects also your throwing motion. Too low point means issues in a throw and you will easily drop your elbow more down while loading -> loading takes time. How do you see this, do you prefer the ball should be under your chin, between your pecs or lower? If you keep the ball closer to your chin, it should lead to faster loading and the throw? Comments on that, please.
To be honest, I prioritize ball security when picking where I hold the ball pre throw. I talk about it in my videos titles “how to throw a football for beginners,” but I hold it under my chin within my frame 🙌

Great vid! If its the lords will, i'm tryna go pro at qb 🙏. I've heard about all kinds of ways to throw a football, And some times they actually say the opposite of what was said in this vid. So now i kinda dont know who to believe, Bc they all seem to work. Thank you for all your hard work and God bless 🙏
Not sure what the opposite of this is, since I learned this all studying nfl qbs. Regardless, wish u the best 🙏
@@dimes. thank you 🙏
@@dimes.At 2:30 ur explaining how ur arm drives through as ur foot hits the ground. (Something along the lines of that). Well I've heard the opposite. Basically ur foot is supposed to hit the ground, then ur arm comes through. And Supposedly that makes ur stride faster and helps preventing you from opening wide with ur shoulders, and then locking out ur knee bc of a long sride, then preventimg u from throwing with all arm. And the throwing sequence is stride, then hips, shoulders, then ball. And if ur wondering where I got this from it was "first down training" and he trains Qbs my age on how to throw the ball as effectively and efficiently as possible. Sorry I made u read all this But I'm kinda confused lol 😵💫😂 And I'd appreciate ur help. Thank you again for all ur hard work ❤🙏
Hi, i’m 13 starting jv football soon I can only throw 30 yards right anything you recommend for me right now. Sometimes it’s just me and my bother practicing and at this point it’s ending up just being a game of catch. would love to work with you just live in upstate ny and idk if u come up that far. Love you vids thank u
Never been to the north east before 😩 but I’d recommend getting reps & learning how to sequence through your kinetic chain more efficiently. It’s tough to get right, but when it clicks you’ll know 🙏 hope this & my other content helps

I just wanted to throw my dog her ball better - she loves fetch. I feel I am going to play much, much better now. Both I and Beak thank you - a lot.

Hey dimes, in the next vid can you make a slowmo of qbs throwing to really see the motion?
Working on it rn 🙏

Hey Dimes, loved this video. Btw, did you ever get my message? Might be stuck forever in requests 💀 😅
I’ll look for it 🤝
Do you need more arm stretch to throw farther cause lately when I try to do a deep pass It barley goes across the field
Nope, more core mobility. Not arm stretch tho 🙏
I play football and this helped me soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much 😊

Does height matter in a qb? I’m prolly like 5’5-5’6 and I can only launch it about 35 yards. But when I watch other nfl qbs throw 50 yards I feel like I can do it too but then when I step on the field, I realize how far it is and can’t even get it to 40
If u can still find your receivers, it doesn’t matter as much
No, it doesn't matter. It's all about power, strength and most importantly technique. A friend of mine is 5.7 and throws the football as far as Brett Favre
thank u
God loves yall! and Jesus is King! read the Bible! Seek The Lord! The Lord Almighty! with all your heart and soul and strength and mind! Amen!
Would you say longer arms are better for throwing footballs?
Can be, but that doesn’t mean a shorter arm can’t be an nfl level talent
Yo dimes what can I do to stop palming the ball I throw on average around 35-40 but sometimes my throwing motion will be the same but I will just completely just go like 15 yards and a duck idk what’s happening especially on my deep balls
Hard to say without seeing it 😭
throwdimes.com 👀
I tried this its like weird letting my arm go back before i place my front leg down. Also do you lose power if like your hips turn before your arm, so basically your hips and your arm have to turn at the same time?
Not at the same time, but it happens one after another in a short window of time.
I want to be qb for school I never played a minute so I’m watching your videos
I’ll get u right bro 🫡

So I’m a 12 year old qb that’s 5’6 135 pds I can throw 40+ yds without pads and I am starting to get into the weight room to get bigger and stronger do you have any plan that you think I should follow to get better as a quarterback to be able to play at an elite level one day

@@DevinMaxfieldd ur tall asf
If u study, learn, & become smarter than anyone else it will take u extremely far. Always be learning & never think u just know it all 🎯
@@dimes. Alr thx for the info next year if I can ill get some highlight clips and post this on this channel
I got a wilson GST But struggle to throw it with the tips, its probably my form, unsure but ill keep trying.
Nah gst footballs are just kinda bad in my opinion
@@MarvinHawkinsQb I had a franklin 1000 (Bought it for 15 dollars) and i could throw a perfect spiral, so Im gonna have to agree on that (Dont use the franklin anymore because it was punctured by a cactus)
You’ll get it, just have to keep trying 🙏 also if it’s a new ball, u must break it in correctly first
@@dimes. Ok, I broke it in earlier after buying the stuff but cant throw for now since i have a torn tendon in my throwing arm
Would you say 45-50 yards is good for 13?
Yeah 👀🔥
Hey. I have been a throwing a football since I was a kid and I was wondering if you can help me throw farther
Yes I can 🙏
Ok when
Hey that person is me
like MEMPHIS,LITTLE ROCK,ATL,LOUISVILLE,WASHINGTON AND OTHERS

when are you going to start traveling around city's and start helping QB'S in person with young QB'S
Gotta set it all up then it’s good 🙏

For some reason, when I put all my strength into it I can't even throw it over 20 yards
It's all technique
BRO JUST DROPPED THE BLUEPRINT FOR QB's 👀
