How to do the Single-Cone Sprint Drill
- 1
This drill teaches quick foot action. You need a single cone. Begin standing next to the cone with one arm back and one arm forward.
- 2
Chop the feet as quickly as possible, blocking with the arms. Circle the cone, keep your knees up, with violent foot action.
- 3
Rest after three trips around the cone.
Log it, see it on your body.
