Quads

Quick feet trains fast, light ground contacts rather than raw strength, building the reactive quickness used in change-of-direction sports more than pure quad size or strength. Keep the steps short and rapid — overstriding defeats the point of the drill.

How to Do the Quick Feet V. 2

  1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and your arms by your sides.
  2. Begin by rapidly moving your feet up and down, as if you were running in place.
  3. Keep your movements quick and light, focusing on staying on the balls of your feet.
  4. Continue for the desired duration or number of repetitions.

Muscles Worked

The Quick Feet V. 2 primarily targets the Quads, with Calves as the primary synergist muscle group, along with the Hamstrings.
