#fastfeetfriday Being able to be fast + efficient out of any kind of change of direction is such an important speed quality in any field sport athlete. When looking at change of direction you want to be sure that a few things happen: •plant leg is long + stiff into the ground, making you more reactive and faster out of the cut •hips drop into the decel, and stay low in the acceleration out •upper body stays in control and angles in the direction you want to go These details seem small, but they all add up into what makes an efficient and safe change of direction #athletedevelopment #sportsperformance #speeddevelopment #changeofdirection #speed #speedcoach #lacrosse #injuryprevention
