The program that revolutionized the strategies for coaching multi-directional speed just got bigger and better… 

 

“Increase Any Athletes Multi-Directional Speed With The Ground Breaking Speed Training Program Perfect For All Court and Field Sport Athletes” 

 

Attention All Coaches, Trainers, Physical Therapists, and Athletes:

Do you want to discover, in detail, how multi-directional speed is improved using proven coaching strategies on acceleration, explosive training, cutting, and tons more? 

Ground Breaking 2 is finally here! And it is bigger and better than ever. Ground Breaking 1 set the industry standard for how athletic multi-directional speed should be taught. Ground Breaking 2 has taken that same information and greatly expanded with Six DVDs full of instructional and live footage.


Let me answer your biggest 
questions right off the bat... 


Q: Is Ground Breaking 2 much different than Ground Breaking 1? 
A: Not only does Ground Breaking 2 expand on Ground Breaking 1 it takes you to a whole new level. 

Q: What exactly makes Ground Breaking 2 so much different? 
A: The obvious difference is Ground Breaking 1 is a 2 DVD Home Study Course. Ground Breaking 2 is a monstrous 6 DVD System that gives you an in-depth breakdown of the key areas of multi-directional speed for any sport. Ground Breaking 2 is a system of how to coach all major areas of athletic speed. 

Q: Will Ground Breaking 2 help me evaluate my athletes speed and know how to correct any problems?
A: Ground Breaking 2 will make you into the guru on coaching athletic speed. Not only will you be able to evaluate athletic skills such as; many forms of cutting, acceleration, deceleration/change of direction, jumping/landing, first step quickness in any direction, lateral speed mechanics, tactical quickness, retreating skills, and so much more, you will also be able to correct your athletes on the spot with highly targeted coaching cues. Your athletes will love you! 

Let me answer all your questions 
with one answer... 

 

Ground Breaking 2 will change how you look at every athlete from this day forward. You will have such command over athletic multi-directional speed you will be able to coach any court or field sport athlete…PERIOD! 

Here is what Ground Breaking 2 gives you....

 

DVD #1 The Warm Up System  

 

  • You will discover the complete warm up system that have prepared my athletes for the best performances of their lives. Like how to prepare the muscles before anything else is done. How to activate and energize the neuro-muscular system, When and how to use corrective stretching. And how to perform a proper dynamic warm up regardless of the age and ability of the athletes.

  • You will love the post warm up continuation of stability and balance training. This might be the missing link that many coaches never use to properly bring athletes along. This section has helped us to keep our athletes moving at their best.

  DVD #2 Revisiting Ground Breaking 1  

 

  • Over the past 4 years many coaches have mis-understood the key message of what Ground Breaking 1 was all about. I bring you back and clear up any misconceptions and make you crystal clear moving forward as a multi-directional speed coach.

  • You will have a clear understanding how why I preach what I preach when it comes to the Plyo-Step, Hip Turn, Crossover, Directional Step, and much more.

  DVD #3 Cutting  

 

  • This might be one of the most mis-understood areas of athletic speed. I will make absolutely sure you have no doubt what an athlete needs to do when it comes to cutting.

  • Cutting has many different shapes and sizes depending on the situation. I will clear up exactly how the footwork should occur in over 5 major cutting patterns that athletes commonly use on the court and field.

  • I want you to know why the common method that most coaches, Physical Therapists and trainers are teaching you are not only bad for performance but could be setting your athletes up for injury.

  • You will discover why and when an athlete has to sit into the cut and when he or she must explode with speed through the cut for maximum performance

  • You will watch me live with my athletes and see how I do not over coach them but simply cue them when they make a mistake- IMPORTANT!

  DVD #4 Deceleration and Acceleration  

 

  • I am going to end the argument about what leg is used in deceleration ONCE AND FOR ALL. I will clearly outline what leg is used when and why it is used. I have been preaching this for years and too many coaches are missing the point. I am fearful that athletes are going to get hurt if coaches keep emphasizing the wrong technique. Let me clear this up for you immediately!

  • Discover why the shoulders can make or break the work that the legs and feet do. If the shoulders are out of alignment of deceleration or acceleration the athletes movement will be slower.

  • I am going to share with you the key cues that can make you look like a magic worker with your athletes. Athletes will no longer have questions about how to decelerate or accelerate properly- you will coach them perfectly.

  • You will have a fool proof progression of how to coach deceleration and acceleration. Watch and see how simple I keep the acceleration progression. You will immediately see how you can add to these progressions to have a seasons worth of skills and exercises to coach your athletes through- for any sport!

  • I will share with you and make it crystal clear as to why you must coach acceleration to fully finish deceleration mechanics. If you get nothing else out of the enormous coaching course you must understand the concept of finishing deceleration with adding acceleration!

DVD #5 Jumping and Landing  

 

  • It will become completely apparent as to why you must coach the athletes on Landing Mechanics first. If you skip this step you might as well forget about getting optimal performance out of you athletes- plus you probably lead them down the road to injury.

  • Find out how to progress the athletes from Jumping and all the variations to Leaping and its variations, and finally to Hopping and all of its variations.

  • I show you the exact mechanics for every jump, leap, and hop. From the most basic exercise to the highly advanced. You will know how to coach jumping and Plyometrics.

  • I will share with you how you can implement training tools to improve and assess jumping like; Vertimax, vertec, and low 4 inch boxes all the way up to big 30 inch boxes.

  • Do you think using boxes is always a more difficult progression? I will show you why you might be wrong and when to think differently.

DVD #6 Olympic Lifting  

 

  • I absolutely love coaching Olympic Lifting. You will see why in this instructional coaching DVD.

  • Discover the simple yet most effective progression for teaching any athlete how to perform the basic clean, snatch, jerk, and all the variations.

  • It is important that you watch and listen to how you can easily introduce these skills to younger athletes. I taught my 8 year old daughter how to perform the clean and snatch in one day.

  • I want you to understand that you are not only training competitive lifters. You are coaching athletes how to use their body to quickly accelerate and create power and quickness. Olympic lifts are a great tool to do just that and I will show you exactly how you can coach your athletes for success in the lifts.

  • I am going to share with you how you can use PVC pipe, DB’s, and light training bars to bring about confidence in your athletes.

  • For those of you who want to know how to perform the competitive lift Clean and jerk and the snatch from the floor I will show you exactly how it is done.

  • Racking the bar on the shoulders in the clean is vital to being safe and effective- I will show you exactly how to coach this to your athletes. Receiving the bar with locked out arms directly in the line of most stability is the goal in the snatch. Let me show you how this is done.

Ground Breaking 2
Only $297 


Shooting Ground Breaking 2 took place over three full days and has more information in it than any other product I have every produced. The reason is, I want you to have complete control of every stage of coaching your athletes on athletic multi-directional speed

 

Watch this now....

 

Why is My Information So Important For You To Have…


I explain details most coaches simply don’t understand. I have spent over 20 years studying athletic multi-directional speed and the impact it has on sports performance.

I have uncovered and challenged the industry on Hot Topic of foot placement during first step acceleration in every direction. I have even challenged the establishment when it came to knee and ankle positioning during the critical stages of initial planting. This alone has created a more powerful and explosive athletes while cultivating a safer movement environment for all athletes.

I realized the method of the old time were outdated and had never been questioned. I questioned them and when I didn’t get good answers I created proper coaching systems that made sense. Why is pivoting too slow and potentially dangerous, why do athletes need to learn how to move their feet under their center of mass and not the other way around, why should the knees be inside the foot during hard cutting and change of direction? I challenged these and many other questions and found the correct answer so you and your athletes can benefit.


The Ball is in Your Court… 
What are You Going to do About it?
 

You can either continue with the same old information that has produced minimal results. You can use outdated information that quite frankly is dangerous to athletes of all ages and abilities. You can watch disappointed athletes become more and more frustrated…

Or you can join the movement… 


Ground Breaking 2 is dedicated to improving the state of how we coach athletic multi-directional speed. You need to be on board because you I know you want the best for your athletes.


Just read what those who have been exposed to my
Ground Breaking Techniques over the years had to say...

 

"Without a doubt the best I've seen on speed to date and has improved my ability to teach/correct my athletes which has resulted in an increase in movement ability which equals more acceleration!"

"Lee Taft's Ground Breaking Athletic Movement DVD series is without a doubt the best I've seen on speed to date and has improved my ability to teach/correct my athletes which has resulted in an increase in movement ability which equals more acceleration!!! If you have not purchased this DVD series you are missing some vital information for the development of your athletes. His "Plyo Step" which he explains in the DVD is worth the price of the DVD and that is just one of many missing links he explains!"

Thanks Lee!

"Thanks for sharing your ideas. Not everyone believes in what I am telling them (about your ideas), but then, they are not the ones who just clinched the 7-AAAAA region championship"


"I have been using your ideas (first step quickness drills, etc.) the past 1.5 years and it has made a difference in us getting to the ball quicker. We are presently 8-1 (8-0 in region play and racked #5 in AAAAA Georgia HS Football). The difference has been getting our kids into a more powerful/efficient position quickly and then use a proper mechanics to accelerate from that position. The first 10-20 meters improvements have been remarkably significant."

"Thanks for sharing your ideas. Not everyone believes in what I am telling them (about your ideas), but then, they are not the ones who just clinched the 7-AAAAA region championship one week before the end of regular season and secured a #1 seed in round one of the state playoffs."

"Lee Taft's (Ground Breaking 1) video made me feel like I was in a class room actually learning something and I commend him for that"


"Many speed training video's fall short because they don't take the time to break down the finer points and techniques on speed development. I think the most important thing a video should offer is actual teaching. Lee Taft's (Ground Breaking 1) video made me feel like I was in a class room actually learning something and I commend him for that. Ultimately our jobs as PE teachers, personal trainers and coaches are to teach what we know and Lee Taft shines through in this category. Besides loads of effective speed drills, if you want to really LEARN the importance & fine points of plyo steps, hip turns, directional crossover steps, athletic stances and so much more, then get 'Ground Breaking Athletic Movement DVD Series".

"
Ground Breaking 1 is the only resource I have found that is COMPLETE with techniques and 

drills that are actually useable and

transferable to any sport"

 

"I just watched your Ground Breaking 1 DVD's. These videos are exactly what I have been looking for many years. There are many videos on drills that don't even touch techniques or kind of quickly (very) go through techniques, but the first DVD was worth the price of both. I can't wait to apply some of the techniques that I learned to make the athletes I coach even faster. I have been doing the most of the techniques right, but there were a few ideas, topics and techniques that I found in the DVDs that just make sense (plyo step). I have been at odds with many coaches about the false step. These DVDs solidified my training style, but also give me a couple of added techniques to better my athletes. Ground Breaking 1 is the only resource I have found that is COMPLETE with techniques and drills that are actually useable and transferable to any sport. Thank you for sharing your techniques."

"I also understand much better the how, why, when & where of SAQ training"


"My weakness is training athletes for SAQ and after a short time of learning your info I am easily implementing your methods into our overall program." 

"I also understand much better the how, why, when & where of SAQ training. I am certainly nowhere near where I want or need to be with regards to my knowledge of SAQ but if you were close by I would be knocking down your door with my athletes!"

"One word to sum up the dvd is 'UNREAL!'"


"I have purchased several of Coach Lee's products over the past year and they are second to none. What other DVDs do you see the coach or trainer doing all the movement skills themselves. With coach Lee's points and cues, it will aid and benefit my athletes and enable them to reach the next level. I will refer back to the DVDs for reference any time I have any technical questions. 

Thanks coach."  One word to sum up the DVDs  is "UNREAL!"
