Inside the Session: Back to Basics 1/30/21

Off season training has just started kicking back in for my high school / college group. The video below is a piece from that segment. We are executing one of the most basic of defensive back drills as I am real big in drilling down the basics. The truth of the matter is that playing defensive back is just a series of the same moves over and over on the field. The more we can drill down those basics with an emphasis on the proper execution of them, the better chance we have of recalling that execution in the heat of battle when everything is moving fast.

In the clip, I am talking to the athletes about what their focus should be on as they are executing the drills. Enjoy the tidbits of information because that is what Inside the Session is all about. Please give me some feedback on it and let me know if you enjoyed this content or not. Send me an email to: cwilson@alleyesdbcamp.com – Thank you for being a member.
