Purpose: This exercise combines a lot of plyometric jump elements into one drill. Skaters should alternate the direction they jump for each cone, doing their max rotation for that direction.

Focus: Quick twitch, timing and rhythm, explosive power, vertical height, air position, max rotation, ho...

Purpose: Use this exercise to warm-up quick twitch and hip snap for change foot and same foot take-off jumps.

Focus: single leg stationary axel take-off, single leg stationary loop take-off, quick twitch, warm-up, hip snap, vertical height, air position.

Purpose: This exercise combines forward horizontal jump with vertical height so skaters can work on multiple elements in one drill. The cones help skaters work on maintaining even distance between each jump.
Focus: Vertical height, horizontal height, explosive power, spatial awareness, single le...

Purpose: This sequence of plyometric exercises can be used as a workout with 2-3 sets. Skaters can either do a timed workout, with 40-60second intervals and a 20 second rest, or they can do 10-15 reps of each exercise.

Focus: Workout, explosive power, rotation, quick twitch, plyometrics

Purpose: This plyometric exercise has a lot of benefits in one. It builds strength in the lunge, and then skaters need to maintain good alignment to be able to explode laterally, with a twist mid-air. Then skaters need to have good control on the landing to be able to continue the exercise

Purpose: Works on lateral jump and quick twitch muscle fibers. Practicing rotating in both directions helps skaters not overdevelop the muscles on one side.
Focus: Lateral jump, explosiveness, axis and alignment, upper body position
