Introduction
A foundational drill for establishing baseline movement patterns with even weight distribution, controlled footwork, and stable upper body orientation.
Key Points
- Builds balanced movement habits.
- Reinforces controlled stride mechanics.
- Improves weight distribution during locomotion.
- Helps maintain upper body stability.
- Creates the foundation for advanced movement drills.
Details
The movement baseline drill teaches players to move with consistent, balanced footwork while maintaining upper body stability.
Players walk forward, backward, and laterally at a slow, controlled pace, focusing on even stride length, predictable weight shifts, and minimal torso disruption.
This drill emphasizes maintaining a steady marker or hand posture, aligning the upper body with the movement direction.
Practicing these baseline mechanics builds stability and reduces common movement errors that disrupt aim or balance. This baseline becomes the foundation for more advanced movement challenges.
