The focus of today’s session should be on perfect footwork. We want to see athletes pause for one to two seconds in the receiving position before recovering; during that time athletes should focus on their weight distribution to ensure that they are optimally balanced and stable under the load. Focus on perfect mechanics…even if that means you need to keep the loading a little lighter today!
