The Crossover Step Powered by @WebPt.⛹️♂️ The crossover step is a must-learn technique for any athlete when it comes to frontal plane movement drills. Essentially you have 2 options for lateral movements. Either a pure lateral shuffle (feet never cross each other) or the crossover step (feet cross over each other). You need BOTH to maximize your performance on the field..🏋️♂️ While it's extremely important to practice the actual techniques themselves, you can also work on drills to improve that first step power..To simply things:To work on the lateral shuffle ➡️ any lateral lunge based drillTo work on the crossover step ➡️ any curtsey lunge based rill.1️⃣ The first clip is a weighted curtsey lunge working on explosive power..2️⃣ + 3️⃣The clips working on Load-N-Gos on the wall is from an @exoseducation course we went to last year with @the_athletes_therapist. These clips demonstrate some technique drills for working on first step power. Note that the crossover cut pattern demonstrated in these clip is for a change of direction first step, not the crossover step for pure frontal plane movement..Curtsey lunges are my favorite!!! #curtsey #curtseylunge #cuttingtechnique #athlete.We’re proud to partner with @WebPT, the leading EMR provider for therapists around the globe!
