1 Place 4 agility bags parallel but staggered to simulate holes for a RB to attack. 2 The LB always aligns behind the RB and stays on his backside hip to prevent any cutback. 3 The RB can run through any of the gaps. 4 The LB shuffles behind the RB but presses as the RB declares his open gap. 5 Hard, crisp collisions should result, although the LB doesn't take the RB to the ground. * The bags are staggered to permit the LB to press upfield.

The LB must launch his pads (contact surface) inot the blocker by uncoiling his hips. The hips follow the path of the front foot. The front foot must point at the target, directed down the middle of the blocker, not the edge of the opponent. We want the b
