- Players

- Equipment
- Cones (recommended)
The whip, worked on hip height. Place two cones (or any other marker: bottle, bag) close to each other, one or two meters apart. You head inside as on a slant, plant at the first cone while sinking your hips down to your heels, and push back out from the hip. Everything is played on height: a receiver who brings the chest back up on the way out of the whip gets caught. Six reps per side.
Key points
- Your butt drops toward your heels at the plant, your torso stays low.
- You push back out from the hip, without standing up.
- The first break to the inside has to be real, otherwise the defender doesn’t bite.
- In a group, with a ball: your partner throws to you as you come out of the break. Same movement, plus the catch.
Common mistakes
- Bringing your chest back up on the way out of the break: the second video compares that exit with the right one.
- Planting with straight legs: the reversal takes two steps instead of one.
