Now let us add some other directions in here. We are going to go lateral to break forward. So I am going to start, I am going to go over two hurdles, cut right, cut left, when I get back to the right side, I am going to break forward into a sprint.

Now let us go lateral to backward. Same motion, cut right, cut left, cross and then a back pedal.

Now let us go back to our three hurdles, work on lateral movement, change of direction, but on our Coaches or a partner’s command, you are going to break forward, do a back pedal or whatever it is that you want to add into the skill. I am just going to demonstrate lateral to break forward for you.
So at random, you are going to be moving through the hurdles, partner or Coach says go and you would break forward.

Go.

Now, let us go to a cross over drill. Remember, when working a cross over, the action is from the hip and knee not the foot. We do not want to see the foot lead, we want to see the knee and the hip lead so that we put our body in a power position to put force down into the ground. Not a sweeping action that we have to pull and try and overcome.

Now let us go to a lateral shuffle, cross over to sprint. Do three repetitions with each leg to create one set. Do three sets in a training session.

You want to use the walk back as your recovery time, take your time but do not take a lot of time. You do not have to sprint back but simply walk back, regain your breathing and then you are ready to go for the next one. For these drills where were sprinting out of the hurdles, we want to go through the hurdles in a quick explosive manner and then go for about a five yard distance or a five yard sprint, back pedal, lateral shuffle, whatever the skill might be that you are including with the hurdle drill.
[Music Playing]
Now let us use an explosive cross over to a lateral shuffle or a lateral slide.
