The video features a change of direction and agility training session for professional football players led by Chris Barney from Overtime Athletes and Coach Osama Mustafa from 5-4 Performance. The session includes lateral progressions with skater jumps, four-jump exercises with a vertical component, single-leg broad to 90-degree cuts, and sprint integration focused on staying one unit and reacting to changing field directions. Trainers emphasize the importance of keeping toes forward and pushing laterally instead of jump cutting. This training program aims to improve players' change of direction abilities and is led by highly praised coach Osama, who offers a full football training program.
In this section of the video, Chris Barney from Overtime Athletes explains a full change of direction and agility training session for professional football players. He worked with coach Osama Mustafa, the strength and conditioning coach for the Toronto Argos and the owner of 5-4 Performance. First, they worked on lateral progressions with skater jumps, focusing on stabilizing after each jump and then moving out to the side in a straight line while flexing the trunk. Finally, they finish with a continuous four-jump exercise while touching each cone with the opposite hand.
In this section, the players are instructed to add a vertical component to their training with four jumps in two rounds. They move onto single-leg broad to 90-degree cuts with a focus on staying one unit and reacting to changing field directions. The angle changes from 90 to 45 degrees, and the players integrate the cut with a sprint. The coach wants to see the players attack the cone, get out on a 45-degree angle, get upfield with a small version push, and then do the same thing on the other side. The players are also instructed to stay square and to push laterally instead of jump cutting.
In this section, trainers work with pro football players to improve their change of direction abilities. The players are put through drills that focus on lateral movements as well as quarter arc movements. Trainers emphasize keeping their toes forward while making split-second direction changes. Additionally, the drills aim to amplify the athletes' most isolated motions when changing direction both under and outside their center of mass. The coach leading the training, Coach Osama, is highly praised for his work and offers a full football training program.
