Why it matters for golf
The lead leg has to catch and stabilize big forces in the downswing. This drill trains dropping into a landing and freezing it, teaching the hips and knee to accept load without wobble. That braking ability is a real speed ingredient.
Coaching cues
- Drop, land, freeze.
- Whole foot on the floor, hips loaded.
- No wobble and no extra steps.
- Hold the landing for a beat before resetting.
Common faults
- Knee collapsing inward on landing.
- Landing tall and stiff instead of absorbing into the hips.
