************5******************

The 40-yard dash is one of the best measurements of speed and acceleration, which is why it's a highly regarded test at the NFL combine.
How to do it: You'll need a partner and a stopwatch. Mark off 40 yards on a track or grass field. Get into a comfortable stance — a four-point sprinter's stance is typical — and instruct your timer to start the clock as soon as you move. The clock stops when any part of your chest crosses the finish line.
