GSI Performance Levels Bag L1

The Levels Bags from GSI Performance Technical Training Range are essential equipment for American Football players looking to improve their tackling technique. These bags are designed to isolate accurate body height and train players in the immediate tackle follow-up technique, focusing on body shape, strong stance, and balance during and after the tackle action. Using the Levels Bag helps players develop skills such as accurate body height, arm wrap, reaction speed, and balance.

These bags can be used for single or double player contact drills, depending on the defensive tackle techniques being trained and the level of bag being used. The Levels Bag is available in three specific heights - L1, L2, L3 - in both Senior and Junior sizes.

The Levels Bag L1 Adult measures 75cm (h) x 45cm (d) and weighs 13kg, while the Levels Bag L1 Junior measures 60cm (h) x 34cm (d) and weighs 6kg. Coaches should focus on ensuring players approach the bag from different angles and speeds to challenge their skills and improve their technique.

Key coaching points for using the Levels Bag include making accurate initial contact with the bag at the training height, strong wrap, and driving to finish the tackle. Coaches can vary training drills to keep players engaged and simulate game-like situations. Players should maintain focus on the target, execute strong arm clamp and shoulder contact, and drive the bag backwards with strong leg-drive.

The Levels Bags are designed to provide a challenging and realistic training experience that translates to improved performance during live practice and games. By practicing different wrap techniques and finishing strong, players can enhance their stability, balance, and overall tackling skills.

GSI Performance is a leading brand in American Football training equipment, offering high-quality products designed to help players and coaches improve their performance on the field. The Levels Bags are a valuable addition to any training program, providing a versatile and effective tool for honing tackling skills.
