The Foot Strike Nobody Talks About.

Under resistance, where your foot strikes matters more than how fast you move it. Landing in front kills your forward lean and stalls the drive. Striking back into the ground behind your center of mass loads the force you need to actually push forward.

It has to be deliberate — knees high, strike back, every step.

A footballer’s movement can look completely fine at full speed.

But slow it down… and the details start to show. 👀

A first step.
A change of direction.
A body position.

At APX, we break down these moments to understand how each footballer moves, then use those insights to build more purposeful training.

See the details. Understand the movement. Train with purpose.

One position kills your first step speed.

Most young athletes crouch into their start with their shin out of position — and it makes that first push so much harder than it needs to be. Get your shin angle right, and the drive comes from your front leg, not a fight to get out of the blocks.

It’s a small position fix with a big speed payoff.

We can never realise our athletic potential without learning high quality fundamentals. Without strength, mechanics, and force capacity, you are being held back (literally) from your potential as a soccer player.

APX understands this. We coach the movement skills and force production which allows athletes to reach their potential.

Wrong shin angle, wasted first step.

Most athletes think acceleration comes from how hard you push off — but it actually starts with where your shin sits relative to your body’s lean angle at ground contact.

If that angle’s off, you’re leaking force instead of driving forward. Match the shin to the lean, and every step off the line gets faster.

No two footballers are exactly the same. ⚽️

Two players can have the same position.

The same goal.

Even the same weakness.

But still need different approaches to training.

Generic programming treats footballers the same. APX doesn’t. 🔥

We start by understanding how each footballer moves and use that to build more purposeful training.

This knee drive mistake is slowing every sprint.

Most young athletes drive the knee up and forget about the back leg. In the A-skip, the heel needs to recover up tight to the hamstring on every stride — that’s what keeps the stride cycle fast instead of long and wasted.

Fix that one cue and the whole sprint speeds up.

More hours of training isn’t always the answer. ⚽️

Sometimes, the biggest step forward starts with understanding what’s actually limiting a young footballer.

Training more is very different from training with purpose. 🔥

The band drill that exposes slow cuts.

One simple resistance band reveals whether your hip drive is horizontal or vertical — and that difference decides how fast you actually change direction.

Most young athletes bounce up on the plant step without realising it. The fix is training the hip to drive sideways, so the force goes into the cut instead of the air.

Every footballer has something they’re already good at.

But they also have something they quietly wish they could improve.

Maybe it’s speed, strength, confidence, consistency, or something completely different.

Knowing what they want to improve is one thing, and knowing where to start is another.

At APX, we start by understanding where the footballer is now, what they already do well, and where there may be more room to develop. 💪🏻
