The Athletic Stance

One of the most common errors I see that relates to movement, is the lack of an “athletic stance” in the vast majority of recreational players. There are other sports where being wide and low is critical; like you see with a defender in basketball, or a wrestler guarding against a takedown. In terms of movement, the athletic stance is every bit as important to success as the split-step that proceeds it. We’ll take a closer look in the pro player images that follow.
