JUMP SKIPS




Drill description:
Skip on the right foot and at the same time, drive your left knee up as high as it will go. Then repeat with the left foot skipping and the right knee driving up. The arms are very important in this drill, as they must be constantly pumping up and down. Whichever foot is skipping on the ground, that same arm must be driving up as well. So when right foot skips, right arm drives and left knee goes up high etc. Keep arm at a ninety degree angle from the elbows, hands pointed straight ahead, back and shoulders slightly arched, eyes ahead. The goal is to obtain as much height as possible. Stress proper form building good habits.
