- Today we are going to work on INTENSITY.
- INTENSITY means to have great frequency, pitch and magnitude.
Here are the three INTENSITY tips that you will learn today:
1. Have great pitch – being loud when you answer up & yell. 2. Have great frequency – the amount of perfect reps that you can do. 3. Have great magnitude – having great strength and energy in what you do.Skill-Building Drills – 15 Minutes
