Drill 8 - Plyometric Leaping and Bounding

Love the site, it's a fantastic learning tool!
Ian

DESCRIPTION

Player to perform bounding drills, starting from a standing start players to leap and bound (take off two feet) and bound with alternate legs to end cone. Starting with a shorter stride length than end progression.

Starting with a bound and hold.

Then moving onto a stride length decided by the player which is bigger for the 15m drill.

Standing start - Alternate leg bounding (short distances)

Single leg bounding - both sides

R-R-L-L-R-R-L-L until end.

Two step run up same drill

Progressions - Move through the stages until able to perform a run up and bound. Increasing stride length.

Regressions- bound onto two feet, regress stages, decreases stride length.


Rationale: Short ground contact. Stretch shortening cycle and elastic energy production and use, increase elastic energy for unpredicted gameplay to ensure that the hamstring can cope with reaction. (Komi 2008)
