quarter back

Question

Answer
Hello Zach and thank you for your question.

I'd also recommend you ask the physical skills experts this question.

There's a lot involved in throwing a football for distance.  There is muscle strength and technique.  You need both.  Once you have them you can also use visualization to get distance.  For example, imagine that your arm is a bow and the football is your arrow.  As you extend your arm back ready to throw, REALLY imagine that you've stretched that bow string so tight, there's so much tension, that as soon as you release it, it's going to propel that football like a rocket.  When you let it go, FEEL it take off.  Give this a try, you will surprise yourself with how well it works!

Good luck and let me know how it goes.
