Time Drill
5 Min Active Stretching
10 Min When executing simple, competitive movements, the ability to generate high levels of strength and speed instantaneously, in any given moment, relates to the athlete’s movement proficiency. This means the more speed and strength that is simultaneously generated in a given moment, the more it will lead to running and accelerating faster, increasing explosiveness, jumping higher, and changing direction quicker. So, the focus of today will be to marry the themes of the prior three training sessions into more complex movements that ultimately will give each athlete confidence in their own ability!

Movement (1-7 should be daily)

  • 15-20 Yards
  • 1) Marching with high knees (hands up)
  • 2) Marching with high knees (arm swing)
  • 3) High Knee Skips
  • 4) Lateral High Knee Skips
  • 5) Side Shuffle w/Overhead reach
  • 6) Carioca
  • 7) Back Pedal
