Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Build duration before building intensity on first exposure to the drill.
  2. 2. Quality of movement always takes priority over speed or load.
  3. 3. Keep knees soft at all times; stiff knees on landing increase joint stress.

Regression:

Reduce range of motion — smaller hops, shorter shuffles — until the landing pattern is safe.

Progression:

Increase speed, range, or add a resistance band around the ankles or wrists.

Common Problems:

Arms not pumping — cue the arms to drive in opposition to create rhythm and reduce leg fatigue.
