Drill

Instructions

1. 1Start in a slight knee bend with the ball at the pocket.
2. 2Begin the leg extension a fraction before the arm begins to rise.
3. 3Feel the shot as one wave from feet to fingertips, not arms-only.
4. 4Add a step-back distance every two makes to keep legs engaged under fatigue.

What to focus on

Legs initiating the shot so the arm finishes rather than powers it.

Recommended reps

6 sets of 6, progressing distance

Common mistake

Arms doing all the work while the legs stay dead or under-bent.
