The demands more so mentally are draining but the good ones are able to handle this.\u00a0\u00a0 How can we develop toughness?<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>For every action there is a consequence- as a QB more so then any other position. What I like to do in practice sessions is demand more from my qbs then a game.\u00a0 How do I do this\u2026one way is to expect perfection on all on air throws and sessions.\u00a0\u00a0 Why?\u00a0 If a qb can\u2019t handle the pressure of just throwing on air without a defense, how can I trust them in a game against 11 players trying to take their heads off?<\/li>\n<li>Off season training- IT\u2019S a must \u2013 I expect my qbs to be first and last out of each session. I want them to be the leader of their team.\u00a0 This starts in their off season workouts.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Next week\u2019s blog I will discuss some of the physical traits that\u2019s a must for a qb to be successful.<\/p>\n<p>To find out more about my upcoming qb camp and private sessions please private message me.<\/p>\n<p>Larry \u201cBig Dawg\u201d Jusdanis<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:ljusdanis@sstcanada.com\">ljusdanis@sstcanada.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a series of blogs I will review what I and many other coaches in the pros and college are looking for in a QB.\u00a0 Let\u2019s be honest we all perceive the QB position to be glamorous and at times it is.\u00a0 In all truthfulness QB\u2019s have a lot of expectations and demands on them.\u00a0 &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sst.training\/blog\/blog-post\/qb-canada-what-the-dawg-looks-for-in-a-qb\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;QB Canada &#8211; What the Dawg looks for in a qb?&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":183,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","wpupg_custom_link":[],"wpupg_custom_link_behaviour":[],"wpupg_custom_link_nofollow":[],"wpupg_custom_image":[],"wpupg_custom_image_id":[],"footnotes":"","tve_updated_post":"","tve_custom_css":"","tve_user_custom_css":"","tve_globals":{},"tcb2_ready":1,"tcb_editor_enabled":0,"tve_landing_page":"","_tve_header":"","_tve_footer":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3367","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog-post"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sst.training\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3367","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sst.training\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sst.training\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sst.training\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sst.training\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3367"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.sst.training\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3367\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3369,"href":"https:\/\/www.sst.training\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3367\/revisions\/3369"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sst.training\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3367"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sst.training\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3367"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sst.training\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3367"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
