Instructions
1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a pair of dumbbells at your sides.
2. Bend at the knees and hips to lower the dumbbells to the ground, keeping your back straight and chest up.
3. Once the dumbbells are on the ground, jump your feet back so that you are in a push-up position while gripping the dumbbells.
4. Perform a push-up, keeping your body in a straight line from head to heels.
5. Jump your feet back towards your hands to return to the squat position.
6. Stand up explosively with the dumbbells, bringing them to your sides as you return to the starting position.
7. Repeat the sequence for the desired number of repetitions and sets.
Ensure that you maintain proper form throughout the exercise to minimize the risk of injury and maximize the effectiveness of the workout. If you are new to this exercise, it might be beneficial to start without weights to master the form before adding dumbbells.
