EXPLOSIVE ROTATIONAL TRAINING Hip Drive Fix Rotational Medicine Ball Pass with Band Resistance

Here’s a great drill to reinforce hip drive on rotational movements as I have 4 NFL free agents & GSP sponsored pros Carson Meier, Taylor Heinicke, Julian Williams, and Ike Onike showing. Also just got these new amazing bands from Nick Tumminello which are top in the industry. One of the biggest issues on rotational movements is not lack of rotational ability but rather the inability to properly use the hips when performing rotational patterns. For instance many individuals will over-rotate their torso & muscle through the movement by relying excessively on their upper body & torso rather than emphasizing their hips. This drill provides 4 benefits. 1. The band tension teaches the athlete to sit back & coil into the hips on the eccentric. Most individuals keep too much pressure forward when performing the eccentric on rotational movements. Ideally we want to shift our weight back into our hips so we can then recoil forward by driving/extending the hips. 2. These teach the athlete to emphasize hip drive during rotational movements which as mentioned is a common problem. 3. In order to maintain balance & stick the end concentric release of each repetition you literally have to focus on squeezing your glutes particularly the glute of the back leg while sticking the split stance position. 4. These provide eccentric isometric variations of rotational medicine ball tosses since the added band tension helps the athlete coil into the movement. If the band is not present, using the eccentric isometric is almost counterproductive as you eliminate the eccentric rotational force vector. When the band is present this rotational force vector stays present throughout allowing the athlete to hold the eccentric & fine-tune their position before exploding into the concentric release.
