Great acceleration is one thing but top speed is what will help you catch or pull away from your opponent.

Football players spend very little time working on their top end mechanics and one of the easiest way to do is introducing wickets as a prep for top speed exposure. Think fly 10s etc.

Wickets help promote the front side mechanics so that we avoid over pushing which can lead to hamstring issues for some athletes. Over pushing means we have less time for our recovery leg to get back and now we end up “pulling” ourselves forward by planting the swing leg in front and dragging ourselves through.

Wickets fix this by constraining your ability to overstride. Great self organising drill.

In-season training is an absolute must or you’ll be slower and weaker when it matters the most. Playoffs.

Training should be year around, but the emphasis of what we do changes.

The weight room becomes simple and is there to maintain and keep you available for game day through strength, power, speed and prehab exercises.

To train like a pro, check out the link in our bio.

Skip the boring 45 min bike ride in the gym.

Recovery doesn’t have to be adding a bunch of time in the gym.
Instead view recovery as a point of emphasis to do things you love but that still involve raising your heart rate to some degree.
