How to Play Football: Speed Drills Intro

[Music playing]

Step over drill. Here we are just going to do a simple drill bringing our toe up and stepping over the opposite ankle. Start with walking. Just walk forward pulling the toes up toward the shins and stepping over the other ankle. This is a down and back motion as you walk forward. So the foot is actually coming backward as it hits the ground. We want to stay at the front part of the foot not allowing the heels to hit the ground hard.

Next, take this into a jog, just small steps pulling the foot down and back. Pull those toes up toward the shins. Bouncing on the front part of the foot as you cycle and step over the other ankle.

Next, skip; pull the toes up toward the shin and pop, step down to the ground. Step down to the ground as you cycle that foot by stepping over the other ankle.

Next, we go back to a jog. And our final one will be to speed up the rhythm and make it more of a run. Our focus is bouncing off the ground. Step over that ankle and step down quick. Step down quick. Do repetitions at five yards. Down and back is one repetition. Do the whole series three times.
