Instructions
Initial Setup: Stand with your feet together and arms at your sides. Prepare to jump by slightly bending your knees and keeping your core tight.
Jump Execution: Jump up explosively, spreading your legs to land with your feet wider than shoulder-width apart. As you jump, swing your arms outward to help propel your body upward and maintain balance.
Landing: Land softly with your knees bent to absorb the impact and immediately jump back up, bringing your legs back together. Repeat the sequence in a continuous, fluid manner for the desired number of repetitions.
Maintaining Performance: Maintain a steady pace and focus on explosive jumps with soft landings throughout the set.
Safety and Form: Ensure to warm up properly before beginning the exercise and cool down afterward. Maintain proper form at all times, and if you feel any pain or discomfort, stop the exercise immediately and consult a professional if necessary.
