Instructions
Starting Position: Begin in a lunge position with one foot in front of the other. Ensure that your front knee is aligned with your ankle and not extending past your toes. Your torso should remain upright, with hands on your hips or by your sides.
Execution: Engage your core and with a powerful motion, jump up explosively, switching the position of your legs mid-air. Land gently, absorbing the impact by bending your knees and immediately lower into a lunge position with the opposite leg in front.
Repetition: Repeat the motion, alternating legs with each jump. Maintain balance and control throughout each jump. Perform the exercise for a set number of repetitions or a time period, maintaining good form and an even pace.
Tips: Keep your movements fluid and continuous to maintain momentum. Ensure to warm up properly before performing to prevent injuries. Land softly to protect your joints and maintain stability. Pace yourself to avoid fatigue, especially if incorporating into a high-intensity interval training (HIIT) routine.
