Instructions
1. Begin in a split stance with one foot in front of the other, bending both knees to create two 90-degree angles with your legs. The front thigh should be parallel to the ground, and the back knee should be just above the ground, as shown in the first image.
2. In a swift motion, push off the ground with both feet, jumping and switching the position of your legs in mid-air, like in the second image.
3. Land gently with the opposite foot in front to return to the split stance, but with legs reversed, as in the third image.
4. Make sure to engage your core and use your arms to help with balance and power during the jump.
5. Continue alternating the position of your legs with each jump for the desired number of repetitions or for a timed duration.
Ensure that you warm up before performing this exercise and adjust your intensity according to your fitness level.
