Head- the head is straight up.
Eyes- focused straight ahead.
Shoulders- slightly in front of
the hips.
Arms- extended forward under the
center's backside.
Hand- placed on top of each other
with the palms in, throwing hand on top, fingers spread with the middle finger placed on the center's pant seam. Pressing
the hands into the center's backside is the signal the quarterback is comfortable and ready for the exchange.
Back- arched.
Waist- slightly bent.
Knees- comfortably flexed to the
point that the ball can easily be exchanged with the center. In practice without a center, use a 45 degree bend.
Feet- shoulder width apart, toes
pointing straight ahead.
