The drill’s hopscotch movements strengthen the abductors and groin, an important muscle group that aides powerful hip extension to increase explosiveness as well as rotational power. Backpedaling is a universal movement that most athletes will use countless times during a game or match.
Training under resistance, while performing this reverse motion, allows greater workload to lower body muscle groups during concentric muscle action for greater force development when changing directions.
Adding sprints to the last leg of the drill, will help athletes, not only develops efficient change in direction and effective running form to aide quickness but also improves speed endurance to help combat fatigue during competition.
