biomechanical analysis
... The biomechanical elements measured in this study were the subject’s center of gravity, angle of the elbow at release, angle of the ball at release, and velocity of the ball at release. ... The subject’s motions were filmed and digitized using the Peak Motus analysis system. ... For a better analysis of the quarterbacks throwing motion, it can be broken down into six phases: “wind-up, stride, arm cocking, arm acceleration, arm deceleration, and follow-through” (Fleisig et. ... The purpose of this study was to measure the following biomechanical elements: 1) Center of gravity of the subject 2) Angle of elbow at release 3) Angle of the ball at release 4) Velocity of the ball at release. ... However, there was not enough analysis of all the components to predict that this subject would be a good quarterback.
