I have been focusing a lot on our footwork and how we step in our wrestling stance in order to get into scoring positions.
It has been a big focus in my coaching this semester. The acronym is ABL (Always be loading).
This stance I am fiding is useful in a lot of areas of our life. It provides a strong, balanced position.
This translates to the skateboard practice that I have been doing with my son. the exact stance is exactly how you should be when you first step onto the board. Like one of my online clients said L-stance. I like that he put a name to it. it helps him understand it better.
This power step is what I would recommend in a lot of cases for people. it is not a large step back to maintain balance. it is stepping to a position that allows us to maintain our body position without leaning forward or backward.
Is there anything that you have been doing that you see show up in other activities?
