Introduction
A timing-focused drill that teaches players to perform mechanical movements with steady cadence, improving movement predictability and coordination.
Key Points
- Develops consistent movement rhythm.
- Improves timing across repeated sequences.
- Reduces rushed or inconsistent mechanical pacing.
- Strengthens internal coordination.
- Prepares players for timing-based integration drills.
Details
Players perform controlled marker movements raising, lowering, tracking, or shifting at a set internal or external cadence. A metronome or timed count may be used to maintain consistency.
The purpose is to eliminate rushed movements, uneven pacing, or inconsistent pause lengths. Each phase of the motion should match the timing pattern.
Cadence training helps players refine the pacing of pre-shot mechanics, linking movements smoothly without hesitation or abrupt transitions.
This drill supports integration tasks that require synchronized mechanical timing across multiple steps.
