Ladder Drills

It's a confirmed fact that athletes in any sport can benefit by speed ladder drills. Regardless of
whether these people take part in endurance sports such as track and field, or team sports
such as football, basketball and soccer, speed ladder drills can help them outshine their
competitors. The exercises are designed to increase speed, stamina and coordination in a
compact, easy to implement manner.



But, before you come up with changes to your workout regimen, you need to answer a few
questions.



Here are 5 vital questions about speed ladder drills.



Speed Ladder Drills Question #1: What Are They?



In fact, there are over twenty distinct exercises generally used with speed ladder drills, and
they all help develop fast twitch muscle groups. The workouts vary from front steps, such as
staggered travel, to horizontal movement side steps. These drills help the individual
concentrate on quick and forceful actions. These actions are what enables the growth of fast
twitch muscle fibers.



Speed Ladder Drills Question #2: How Is It Performed?



The ladder is laid on the ground, after which the user is forced to quickly move his or her feet
between the rungs with precise dexterity. Unlike a standard handyman's ladder, the rungs of
this type of ladder are usually not deep or wide and are often made from rope to avoid
injuries. In carrying out drills on these types of ladders, you can produce footwork and hand
and eye coordination through high-knee runs, and shuffles. in addition you should attempt a
bounding drill or 2 through the rungs.



The result of this physically demanding exercise is much improved conditioning, agility and
eye-to-foot dexterity.

Speed Ladder Drills Question #3: Why Are They Important?



Agility performs a vital role within an athletes training program for 2 reasons: One, the more
agile a sports athlete is the better he or she will perform. Agility helps to improve the time
taken for the body to respond and readjust itself to what ever stimuli is positioned in front of
the participant. A heightened agility can also help to reduce common injuries that are
associated with an excessive amount of stress being put onto inflexible muscles. Speed ladder
drills actually teach an athlete to maneuver in a swift yet deliberate style. This is essential for
all athletes, including A 300-pound football offensive lineman as well as a 150-pound soccer
forward.



Speed Ladder Drills Question #4: Where Can They Be Performed?



The awesome thing about speed ladder drills is the fact that all you truly need is a little flat
available area. Your own yard, a playground, as well as the nearby high-school football
playing field all serve as fantastic locations for speed ladder drills.



Speed Ladder Drills Question #5: What Types Are There?



You will find actually dozens of speed ladder drills intended for various different types of
sports athletes. It all depends on the focus of the training. Different drills work on different
aspects of foot speed and coordination. There are the simpler exercises that move down and
up the ladder or jumping with each foot from one box to the next Or there are more
complicated speed ladder drills such as the shuffle.
