Speed: Falling Starts Purpose: To enhance quick leg turnover at the start and teach the proper acceleration lean. Procedure: – Stand with the feet together and lean forward until your balance is lost (see figure a and b). – At this point, accelerate at full speed to catch yourself (see figure c). – Run 20 to 30 yards or meters. Agility: Ladder Side Step Purpose: To develop balance, flexibility, footwork, and peripheral vision. Procedure: – Start in a two-point stance. – Sprint laterally through the agility ladder using high knee and good arm action. – Hit the alternating foot in each square of the ladder (see figure a and b). Agility: Bag Side Step Purpose: To develop flexibility, high knee action, and quick foot action. Procedure: – Start in a two-point stance. – Sprint laterally one direction over bags using high knee action. – Start with the leg closest to the bag. – Go over the bags leading with the right foot (see figure), and then lead with the left foot when you reverse directions and go the opposite way. Quickness: Focus Mitt Purpose: To improve mental processing speed, upper body reaction time to visual stimuli, eye–hand coordination, and total body quickness. Procedure: – Stand in the ready position or in a position particular to your sport and a partner stands in front of you (see figure a). – Using a focus mitt, your partner initiates the drill by presenting the mitt as a target to which you are to deliver a predetermined punch or slap (see figure b). – Your attack may mimic sport-specific movements, such as a tennis forehand or football lineman’s hand technique. Variations: – Add an additional mitt for complex response decisions. – Throw multiple punches or combinations to specific targets.
