Running Back Step and Plant Over Log Drill

Running Back Step & Plant Over Log Drill

Illustration of RUNNING BACK STEP AND PLANT OVER LOG DRILL

Step and plant drill works on high knees as if stepping through traffic. The first step is from the foot closest to the bag. As the running back crosses over the bags, switch the football to the opposite arm. Push off the outside foot.

Running back should always keep his eyes focused straight ahead. Once all the running backs have completed the run through they return the drill from the opposite direction.

Log drills are very easy to set up; use your imagination for designing drills that fit your offense. Logs are from old telephone poles, these can be found at lumber companies or inquire at your nearest telephone company.
