Butt Kicker Drills

This drill is very similar to the high knee drill but with more of a focus on bringing your heel up to the underside of your butt. It is common for athletes to flick their heels behind them and actually kick their butt. While that is not entirely bad, it is not the proper action for the drill. Bring the leg up as if your were doing the high knee drill but emphasize more on bringing your heel to the underside of your butt. Your knee should be at a 90 degree angle with your hips if you're doing this correctly.
