EXPLOSIVE ONE
EXPLOSIVE ONE
This drill has some simple explosive pressing actions and a technical action to finish.
Start by sprinting into the boxed area, decelerate in the middle and perform 2/3 explosive pressing actions all chained together. Return to the middle of the box and react to a partner (if you have one available) to get onto the ball and find a pass. If you don’t have a partner, you can lay out a number of balls at different angles and distances and jump out to one of them. Walk back to the beginning and repeat.
1 rep = one sprint into the box, followed by 2/3 pressing actions and a technical action to finish.
Aim to complete:
6reps x 3-4sets

Small acceleration into a number of explosive movements

Suitable rest from each rep (15-20s)
