How to Cat Pass #13 – Running Two Foot
Running two-foot Cat-Pass
Going back to the Cat-Pass for a minute, we're looking at the running trajectory of the run up.
The key point is to NOT hop or jump into a two foot position before the Cat-Pass. This will mess up your trajectory, momentum and positioning.
1.Don't hop into the two-foot position. Instead, you need to bend down and change you body position height to be lower, so that you have an upwards trajectory coming UP to the box.
-
Lower yourself by bending the knees a little as you approach the Cat-Pass. This puts you in the same lower position as if you had jumped into it (the wrong way).
-
The main way to tell if you're doing it right is that you can feel that the momentum from the run up is actually being used into the Cat-Pass.
-
Lastly, you should feel like you can take off further back, and quicker... Keep practicing and enjoy! This one is a little trickier to master, but keep at it.
