Perfecting the READ STEP...

Great movement skill that teaches linebackers to eliminate false stepping when initially reading and reacting to plays on the field. “Train To Excel”

Would a read step be a false step on pass play?

[@forwardperformanceathletes]

No it wouldn’t be a False Step! We utilize the Read Step by taking a short first step towards the line to help the LB gain ground and setup for lateral movement as they scrape to their assignments, or redirect and get back into coverage.

@@forwardperformanceathletes Interesting. 👍🏼

As a backer you want to read run first

[@BKKhyan]

@@dennisroach4077 I get it, but do you always have to close the distance to the line? Would it be better to move laterally than down hill?

Basic of the Okie read defense.
