LATERAL – QUICK A-SKIP ALTERNATE W/ INTERNAL HIP ROTATION

LATERAL – QUICK A-SKIP ALTERNATE W/ INTERNAL HIP ROTATION
DYNAMIC MOVEMENT
Dynamic Movements involve the second half of our Integrated Movement Prep. These movements are performed in a more rapid fashion. Improving muscle pliability, dynamic flexibility, helping establish better nervous system firing patterns by attempting to replicate specific movement patterns. They are performed both stationary or transit and have either a linear or lateral emphasis. It is important that these movements be performed in order when prescribed in a Dynamic Warm-up sequence.
TRANSIT / LATERAL
These Integrated Movement Patterns are categorized as Transit, with transitional movement, for Lateral Specific Speed Mechanic Drills.
Quick A-Skip Alternate w/ Internal Hip Rotation
- This movement is very similar to the A-skip, except at the top portion of the knee lift, internally rotate the foot to waist height.
- Stand at athletic position. Begin with small mini hops
- Keeping one leg perfectly straight, quickly lift and drive the opposite knee forward and internally rotate the foot to waist height, touching with the opposite hand,
- Alternate leg mechanics with a slight pause between each rep
- Perform to distance prescribed
