Last Hop drill

One of my skills is taking a complicated concept and breaking it down into easy-to-learn components. Then putting it all back together so that I (and you) can understand and retain it.

I was on YouTube a few weeks ago and saw a video with the Braves coach, Ron Washington. He was working with the shortstop on a drill he called Last Hop. The player would line up in front of him and he would toss the ball from a few feet away so that it would bounce once and then the fielder would catch it.

One hop. That’s it. Pro athletes getting paid millions of dollars prating one hop. They weren’t practicing full hard ground balls and throwing to first. Nope. They weren’t even practicing hard ground balls. They were practicing one easy hop. They did that for probably an hour or so and then escalated it up over time.

I’ve started doing it with my kids and the difference is nothing short of miraculous. Kids who didn’t get it, kids who were scared, kids who couldn’t keep their gloves on the ground are starting to look like All-Stars.

That’s exactly what The Final Step does for medical content. It’s the Last Hop drill for medicine.
