Patrick McHenry MA, CSCS*D Ponderosa High School

2 Areas of Development Footwork Agility / Speed / Strength: Hand Speed:
Infighting Punch at different angles/ areas Footwork 1st & 2nd step Move lateral, backward, arch quick

3 Flexibility : (Critical area of development)
Hip / knee / ankle Allows for triple joint extension Balance: Shoulders back/ not leaning too for forward back arched not rounded Head up, weight evenly distributed Right / left

4 How Do we Develop this? Agility Lifting Plyometrics Strongman Training

5 “Whether it’s in the run game or pass protection, footwork is where it starts.” … Do it over and over until it is natural so the muscle memory carries over to the field. Castillo

6 PROGRESSION Simple Complex Closed Open Slow Speed Fast Speed
Low Intensity High Intensity Single Multiple Response

7 WARM UP Dynamic Form Running Basic drills Lower Teach mechanics Upper
Forward / Backward / Lateral Level Change Rotation 15-20 yds 10 min duration Form Running Basic drills Teach mechanics Not developing track stars 5 min duration

8 Warm up Form Running Drills pull knee to chest
Frankenstien ( arms out kick legs & touch fingers) Side shuffle / swing arms Forward walk lunge Carioca (lead foot goes overknee) Backward lunge walk Form Running Drills Seated arm swings (3 sets, 20 sec each set) A step (use correct arm (90* bend), lift knee, on toes) A skip walk (same as a step but come off ground, land in same spot) Ankle hops( go about 10 feet, just like you jump rope, no bend in knee) Ankle flips(jog on ball of foot, knee straight, feel pulling motion)

9 Drills Drills enhance each other Have a purpose Theme
PERFECT TECHNIQUE QUALITY NOT QUANITY

10 Agility Movement patters Fast Feet
Forward / backward/ lateral / diagonal / arc Fast Feet No false steps Know where you are going, step with correct foot Lift your legs (hip flexion, not butt kick) Stop and start with correct technique 1st step stand up or stay in athletic position Drop hips when they stop, foot placement

11 Drills / Equipment Ladders Cones Boxes (bags, mini hurdles) Jump rope
