FootBall Drills

Football Speed - Football Drills to Increase Speed in a Hurry!

Friday, March 18, 2011

As a fitness trainer and strength and conditioning specialist that has trained athletes in the Atlanta area now for over 10 years I can tell you right now that if you want to build your speed for football then you have got to utilize kettlebells! That's right, I said kettlebells my friend. Keep reading if I have your attention.

Football Speed Training Workouts!

Foot Ball Drills

You see in order to stimulate your body to actually get FASTER you have got to train it a certain way in order for it to be. Speed can be obtained a number of different ways, but by developing strength through dynamic movements you will increase your speed performance and smoke the competition on the football field in a hurry! This is where kettlebell training comes into play my friend.

You see kettlebell training is a movement based style of training that will help you to develop strength, power, endurance, and of course speed! Just by engaging in some of the more primary movements that will stimulate the muscles of your posterior chain (hips, glutes, hamstrings, back, etc.) you will develop your sprinting powerhouse for optimal performance. Kettlebell training allows you to perform these dynamic strength movements over and over in order to help you develop both power and endurance at the same time.

For instance, the kettlebell swing is the base lift you can perform with the kettlebell and it gives you a much greater range of motion and similar training effect as a barbell clean. The difference in the two drills is that you can't swing the barbell! The kettlebell allows for a much greater range of motion and volume of training due to it's unique design and the way that the swing lift is performed. This is what strongmen and athletes in Russia have understood for centuries.

Another great thing is that you can actually integrate more functional style drills into your football speed training with kettlebells such as kettlebell drags, totes, and throws. These are drills that more closely resemble world strongman training, but they will certainly improve your football speed performance! This is the kind of workout that will make you a better football player, period.

If you haven't already started to implement the use of the kettlebell into your football speed drills then you are missing out my friend. Take the time to learn more on how to do this by accessing more of my articles on the subject for free. Remember that most any football player can train hard, but only the champions train smart!
