Alternating toggle running and skipping

  • Age U6 - U13, U14 - U19
  • Training Set Progression
  • Number of Players 1 - 5 players, 6 - 9 players

Setup

One round has 4-5 repetitions. The number of players is unlimited. Two cones can mark the start and end.

Procedure

For example, two cones can mark the start and end.The players do the same sequence of movements 4-5 times in a row. This always consists of a combined block of skippings and a subsequent knee lever run with a subsequent recovery phase in which the 4-6 meters trot is easy. Sequence of movements Skippings: The player makes short, fast movements on the footpad (not on the whole foot) at maximum speed with the shortest possible contact time with the ground. The heels should not touch the ground, the legs / arms are bent and oscillate according to the natural counter-movement (right arm / left foot). The upper body is bent forward. Movement of the knee lever: Like skipping, only that the bent legs have to be moved up as far as possible. 1 + 2 - skipping 3 + 4 - knee lever run

Tip

- Walking on the footpads, not your whole foot or heel. - Loose, light tread, no trampling or stamping and light-footedness. - The arms bent on the body move alternately with the legs. Not away from the body (no goal celebration). - As diagonal as possible (left arm / right foot and vice versa) - Short ground contact time
