All must have one goal in mind - move the defense and run where they are not!
...then wait for the uncovered lineman to force you off. Uncovered Lineman, you will take your zone step footwork on the LB over you and work in combination with the covered lineman:
vs. head up or outside shaded defender = use one arm, Read technique (step and take your aiming points on the LB while feeling and reading the DL with your arm). See the LB, feel the pile Stay on course for LB, use one arm until the DL tells you to use two arms.

We will use the same concepts that we use on the inside zone with the exception that now we want to reach the defense. The offensive line will be responsible for the defenders inside the box and the backs will be responsible for support or anything outside the box. We still want to cover up the defenders in the box, but our angle to do it will change. The covered lineman must now drop his play side foot with depth and aim his big toe at the little toe of the outside foot of the defender.
2nd step to and thru the crotch
You must always keep your shoulders on the angle. Everyone is responsible for reaching their zone. The uncovered lineman will use the Lead man, Trail man tech in which he will zone step and get on the back hip pocket of the covered lineman allowing the defense to show itself. Front side & back side is all about cutting down the pursuit of the defense
If you lose leverage of a defender, stay on track and work up to the next level
