Kicker's Power Blast Drill: Building Leg Strength for 5A Programs
📍 Kaukauna Ghosts·Tuesday, July 28, 2026·FridayNightPulse Insider
As the summer heat intensifies, 5A kickers like Kaukauna's Ghosts are putting in the work to build explosive leg strength. The Power Blast Drill is a game-changer for K players looking to increase their power and accuracy. Set up a series of 3-4 platforms or boxes, each 6-8 inches apart. K kickers will perform a 3-set, 10-rep sequence: 1) Stand on the first platform, explosively jumping up to the next platform, 2) Step down to the ground, and 3) immediately jump back up to the starting platform. Coaching cue: 'Power through the ground, then blast up!' This drill translates to game performance by developing the quick, explosive leg strength needed for kickoffs and extra points.
