Footspeed Ladder Value Set

Code: SOC500

Doing agility training is of vital importance for athletes and is an attribute that could give you an advantage over your opponents. The Footspeed Ladder value pack will allow you to enjoy the benefits of this type of training and assist you in putting together a specific plan to cater for your needs. Athletes in sports such as football, basketball and rugby regularly use this fitness equipment during training as it increases speed, stamina and co-ordination. The athlete is required to move their feet in a precise and specific motion at pace. This teaches the person to move swiftly and in a variety of different directions. The best thing about this type of training is that it is ideal for athletes of all shapes and sizes, as a towering defender will go through the same routine as a flying winger, with each getting unique benefits out of it and improving aspects of their game.

The Footspeed Ladder is laid across the ground and resembles the look of an ordinary ladder. Please remember that using a normal wooden or steel ladder for the same exercises would be dangerous as tripping onto the equipment could cause serious injury, while hooking your foot into the opening could twist an ankle or possibly break a bone, resulting in weeks or months on the sidelines. The Footspeed Ladder is made of light, flexible materials and is specifically designed for training. Dozens of drills can be done on this handy piece of sports equipment, from simple drills such as running and placing one foot in each opening all the way up and down the ladder or lifting your knees higher while completing the drill to much more complex movements. Hopping on one foot for the length of the ladder also helps with balance, while doing a shuffle from side to side is a popular drill and constantly used on the football pitch. One of the most beneficial ways to use this equipment is to start with a simple drill, continue with training and then test your agility and endurance with more complex drills at the end.

This value pack will provide you with an eight metre ladder in a carry bag, to make it quick and convenient to pack up and travel with or store. An instruction manual and training DVD is also included to ensure that you get the most out of your 8m Footspeed Ladder. This item is perfect for coaches at schools, clubs, or even for those doing private training as well as young athletes who want to do some agility or fitness training at home.
