  • Sprint to first cone; breakdown
  • Rotate so you face toward square; shuffle to next cone
  • Rotate outward and backpedal to next cone
  • Rotate to face away from square; shuffle through finish
  • Repeat in opposite direction

The Yankee Way: "Make sure you slow down, bend your knees, maintain body balance, rotate and then come out of the movement quickly at each cone."

What it does: "This works balance because you rotate at each cone, and it teaches you to generate lateral force to cover a lot of ground while shuffling; this is exactly what an infielder does in a game. If you watch Jeter, his movements happen so fast, and he has to eat up a lot of ground quickly."

Reps/Rest: 2 reps/45-60 seconds recovery
