ROBERTO MÁRTINEZ,TECHNICAL PHYSICIST

Description of the exercise 🏆 2.

Activation exercise that combines elements of coordination, agility and speed with simple technical passing dynamics. It is integrated into the initial part of the session to prepare the player physically and technically through low-medium demand but high neuromuscular intensity actions.

2. Organization and development 📌

• Two rows facing each other with a coordinating ladder between them.
• Players start with a fast sequence of agility and speed on the ladder.
• When exiting the ladder, they make a series of 4-5 passes between the two of them, at a short-medium distance to promote accuracy.
• After the passes, they move on to a second activation phase (these may be cones, low hurdles or a second staircase) with new speed/agility gestures.
• They end with a second sequence of passes, similar to the previous one.

4. Tips or main aspects 🔍

• Coordination and precision in each technical gesture.
• High pace from the beginning to activate neuromuscular systems.
• Focus on pass quality and control, even in mild fatigue.
• Smooth transitions between phases, avoiding unnecessary pauses.

3. Variants 🔄

• Change tread patterns on the staircase or agility elements.
• Include passes with different surfaces: inside, outside, first touch.
• Increase the number of passes or introduce a third player as support.
• Use medicine ball in some phase for reactive strength work.
