Here we have our “Wall Drill” Series. ⁣
⁣
The purpose of the wall drill is to teach athletes how to create stability and tension to produce maximal force in any movement pattern. ⁣
⁣
The origin of this exercise comes from the background of isometric training. ⁣
⁣
“Overcoming isometric contraction“ occurs when force is developed by an individual to overcome an external force, thus being the “wall”.⁣
⁣
When cueing athletes through these movements, be mindful of :⁣
⁣ • a natural forward lean of the body ⁣
⁣ • a neutral spine alignment, with stiff core ⁣
⁣ • active flexion on the “up” leg⁣
⁣ • active extension on the “down” leg ⁣
⁣
These drills can be utilized as correctives/activation going into a speed+agility session. ⁣
