my kids are going to a speed/agility school a few nights a week over the summer. its a track and field context, but one of the things the coaches say which seems like a rule, when you start moving in a direction, your shoulders should go the direction you are going first, if that didn't happen you did it wrong. They do a simple drill to demo, coach just holds a ball shoulder height in his hand and kids are like 4-5 yards away, he drops it, if you just immediately move shoulders first they can always catch the ball in one bounce. If they coil, drop step, anything other than shoulders first toward the ball, they can never get there before the 2nd bounce.
@@veovius never really looked, the speed school my kids go to is a Parisi Speed School and they have locations all around the world. I assume there are definitely videos on movement technique in sports though, sprint mechanics, directions changes, limb speed, explosiveness etc etc...that is what they do in their workouts at the gym. edit...parisi is "bill parisi" he wrote the book "anatomy of speed"
Ben, in the context of an actual match most of what I've seen are dudes walking the stages let's call it "deliberately". Based off this video and what you stated it seems like that could be (not saying it necessarily is) potentially counter productive to getting through the stage quickly and with intensity. Do you recommend a slower dry fire of stage, full speed or a combination of both during a match/stage?
I'm guessing that in an actual match you won't have the ABILITY to run full speed through the stage, because everyone else is doing their walkthroughs as well. This seems to just be getting used to(in practice) those explosive direction changes, etc.

Nice 👍 👍
Do you have any good youtube recommendations for speed school stuff?

“I’m aiming my ass off”. Wise words - It doesn’t matter how fast you move if you don’t make holes in the target.
Amazing video! very helpful....thank you
Outstanding advice - it works. Thank you Ben
Is pumping the gun hand while running inside the rulebase? I have only done level 1 USPSA for one year thus far.
As long as you are not breaking the 180 it is fine.
Its fine, and this is another thing from speed school, if you want to be fast, you must move your arms fast.
