Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Build duration before building intensity on first exposure to the drill.
- 2. Eyes up and ahead — looking down slows reaction time and disrupts balance.
- 3. Focus on foot speed first; cover range once mechanics are sound.
Regression:
Reduce pace to a walk or march. Remove the jump or hop until mechanics are solid.
Progression:
Increase speed, range, or add a resistance band around the ankles or wrists.
Common Problems:
Losing rhythm after fatigue — build sets shorter and more frequent before extending duration.
