Catapult launch with Deuserband

  • Age U14 - U19
  • Training Set Main point
  • Number of Players 1 - 5 players, 6 - 9 players

Setup

A start and an end cone are set up at each station. Pairs of players are formed who line up behind or next to each other at the height of the starting cone. Each pair of players receives a Deuserband.

Procedure

One player per pair stands in front, the other with the Deuserband behind. The Deuserband is placed around the waist or chest of the person in front. The man in front sprints and the man behind pulls so strongly in the opposite direction with the Deuserband that the man in front only comes forward very slowly. After 3-5 m, the man behind suddenly lets go of the Deuserband and the man in front sprints to the end cone.

Tip

- With the Deuserband (running against a resistance) the starting speed is trained. By working into the Deuserband, high muscle tension (high muscle tone) is built up. This creates energy that is stored for a short time and is released in pulses when the resistance disappears. - At the start, start in step position on the footpad. At the beginning the upper body is bent far forward, the center of gravity is at hip level, the view goes down. After pressing firmly over the footpads, the upper body is gradually straightened up, the gaze lifts and the step frequency increases. The arms are actively moved alternately with the leg movement (the right leg goes forward, the left arm goes forward and vice versa). After the first 3-4 steps on the footpad, roll over the whole foot (heel-> sole-> footpad), the upper body is upright and calm, the step frequency increases to the maximum. - 2 cones
