Low Box Lateral Shuffle With Stick

The low box lateral shuffle with stick is a lateral deceleration drill designed to teach athletes how to stop, absorb force, and own a mechanically sound position so they can immediately change direction and reapply power. By emphasizing a deliberate two-to-three-second stick on every rep, this exercise builds the movement patterns athletes need to decelerate cleanly without losing position or wasting time turning to change direction. Learn proper setup, technique, and programming recommendations for integrating this drill into your athletic performance training.

Barbell Floor Press On Plyo Box

The barbell floor press off a plyo box is a unique pressing variation that combines the range of motion restriction of a floor press with the full bench press mechanics — including leg drive — that traditional floor pressing eliminates. This exercise is ideal for powerlifters targeting bench press weak points, athletes managing shoulder discomfort, and lifters looking to build tricep lockout strength. Learn how to set it up, perform it correctly, and program it effectively for maximum carryover to your bench press.

Sled Resisted Back Pedal

The sled resisted backpedal is an explosive speed training drill that forces athletes to develop powerful backward acceleration mechanics essential for football, basketball, and field sports. Learn proper technique, equipment setup, and programming strategies to build defensive speed and improve backpedaling performance. This loaded variation transforms passive backward movement into an explosive athletic skill that translates directly to competitive game situations.
