Crescent Kicks Arm
Extended
Coaching
Points:
The next exercise in the sequence is the same
starting position as the
moving crescent kicks, but this time the player uses
an outstretch arm and moves around the grid,
forward, backwards and sideways. The working player
follows performing crescent kicks with the left and
right foot. The player must kick
over the players extended arm, with no contact.
The
player doing the exercise can feel better than
anyone their limits, so they must tell the player to raise
(if it is too easy) or lower (if it is too
difficult) their arm.
This constant reassessment is vital.
Alternate moves with the left foot, followed by the
right foot.
Music with a constant beat is a fantastic tool for
helping this rhythmic movement.
There are also a number of different ways of using
these drills.
1.
40 repetitions.
2.
3 x 20 repetitions.
3.
