Agility Log 11/5

Agility is essentially a combination of acceleration, deceleration and changing direction.
To create fast, multi-directional movement, you need to teach your body to move, challenging your central nervous system to adopt a movement pattern and perform it successfully. For example, when you first ride a bike you need strength to move the pedals but you also need to 'learn' the movement pattern.
Once it's learnt correctly it will be stored in what may be termed 'muscle memory.'
Rugby related movements are complex combinations of smaller, simpler movements. The reason some players, like Jason Robinson, are better at performing certain movement skills is that they more easily bring together all the smaller movements and co-ordinate them. These movements are:
Foot speed
Balance
Reaction
Breaking agility down into it's components and training them independently is the first step, followed by a progression to combination drills.
