Agility Ladder

How to do it

Lay the agility ladder flat on level ground and stand tall at one end facing the first rung.
Rise onto the balls of the feet with the knees soft and the eyes forward rather than down at the rungs.
Drive quickly through each square using short, quick steps, letting the calves and quadriceps power the ground contacts.
Keep the arms pumping in rhythm with the feet to help maintain balance through the direction changes.
Move through the ladder at a brisk, controlled cadence, resetting to a walk between passes to recover.
Avoid looking down at the feet, since dropping the chin slows the rhythm and throws off balance.
