Squat Jumps
Squat Jumps (30)
Start Position: Stand tall with feet shoulder width or wider apart.
- Sit back until thighs are parallel to the floor, keeping the back straight, abdominals tight and chest up.
- Position arms where comfortable as long you reach start and finishing positions outlined in the movement standards.
- Jump up explosively extending the hips, knees and ankles fully so body is in a straight line.
- Immediately squat as your feet hit the floor. This will both absorb the jump downward and also prepare you for the next jump upwards.
