Working on your speed and quickness is a great way to become faster and also strengthen your body in all three planes of motion. It opens up the hips and improves lateral mobility.
 
Fitness author Pete Williams and friends demonstrate two simple drills that improve your speed, agility, and quickness. The 5-10-5 drill, which will be familiar to football fans who watch coverage of the NFL combine, the challenges you to perform a shuttle drill as quickly as possible. The box drill requires you to move quickly backward and forward, laterally, and also side to side.
