Week 3 · Session C · Lateral Quickness & Recovery

Push, recover, push again. Reaction and footwork while the brain is fresh, lateral power that builds from a shuffle to a hurdle hop, and short, low intervals that train the post-to-post engine.

This week

The heaviest week of the first half. Still two clean reps left in every set; a grinding rep teaches the wrong pattern.
