Single-leg bounds

The single-leg power a sprint stride is made of, and it exposes a side that cannot take the load.

What it works

Glutes, Hamstrings, Calves

How to do it

  1. 1From a jog, push off one leg for maximum DISTANCE rather than height, land on the same leg, absorb it, and go again.
  2. 2Five to eight contacts a side, with full rest between sets — this is speed work and a tired bound is a useless bound.
  3. 3Aim for a tall posture and a full hip extension on each push.
  4. 4If one side covers noticeably less ground than the other, that is worth knowing before a sprint finds it for you.
