Agility Training Tips:
Before you start, get a solid dynamic stretch warm up to improve performance and minimize the risk of injury. Then, pick a few drills to develop a balanced training program for your workouts.
These cone drills should be performed at high intensity, just like in actual game situations.
These drills are designed to push your body to it's limits. So we recommend performing these drills when your body is fresh. The drills will not be as effective after any kind of physical activity, practice, or strength training. We recommend working on agility 3-4 times a week. And make sure to give your body time to rest in between each drill.
Each drill will have suggested cone spacing, which are sometimes standards for agility testing. As a general rule, cone spacing of 5 yards or less will develop quickness. Longer drills and 10+ yard spacing will boost your top speed and conditioning. Mix it up to stay on your toes and balance your workouts.
