Floor Patrick step-up is a regression of Patrick Step Up. Use the written card above for its exact setup and execution.

Short range: Short range means the target muscle finishes squeezed in its shortened position.

WHY IT EARNS A SPOT

Own the position,
then earn the load.

The working knee travels forward while the heel stays grounded, letting the quads control a small, repeatable range without turning the drill into a hip-dominant step-up.
