Instructions

Setup

  • Stand upright with your feet together.

  • Place your hands on your hips to maintain balance.

Movement

  1. Jump Crossing: Perform a small hop and alternate your legs to land in a cross-legged position. Use your calves and ankles to push off the ground.

  2. Explosive Jump: From the cross-legged landing, drive through your feet and explode upward into the air.

  3. Sumo Squat: As you land, transition immediately into a wide-stance sumo squat. Ensure your feet are wider than shoulder-width apart, with toes pointed slightly outward.

  4. Squat Depth: Lower your hips until your thighs are parallel to the floor, keeping your chest up and core engaged.

  5. Return to Start: Push off the ground from the sumo squat position to return to the starting upright posture. Repeat the sequence continuously.
