Athletic Ready Position and the Weeble Wobble
Most kids (and honestly… adults) are skipping the most important step in athletic development…
👉 The athletic-ready position
This is the foundation for EVERYTHING:
• Strength training
• Speed & agility
• Balance
• Coordination
• Sport performance
• Injury prevention
If this position is off… everything built on top of it is unstable.
Think about it…
If your feet aren’t grounded properly…
If your weight is shifting all over the place…
If your body doesn’t know how to “load” correctly…
➡️ You can’t produce force
➡️ You can’t control movement
➡️ You can’t move efficiently
That’s where we start.
One of our go-to drills is the Weeble Wobble Drill.
It teaches:
✅ Proper foot positioning
✅ How to create a stable base
✅ Balance and body awareness
✅ Controlled movement under instability
It may look simple… but it builds the foundation every athlete needs.
Because before kids:
🏃 Run fast
🏋️ Lift heavy
⚽ Compete
They NEED to learn how to control their body first.
That’s real physical literacy.
That’s long-term athletic development.
That’s how you build confident, capable kids.
