Boost Your Throw Power with Brady Smigiel's Techniques

September 8, 2025
Michigan commit Brady Smigiel shares a throwing technique that relies on upper-body mechanics rather than raw strength.

Arm strength isn't about lifting weights—it's about how you use your upper body. That's the insight from Brady Smigiel, a quarterback at Newbury Park High School and a Michigan commit.

Smigiel's tip: use your off arm like a slingshot and leverage the ground for power. The technique creates torque that translates to velocity, offering quarterbacks a mechanical edge over those who rely on arm talent alone.
