2 to 1 Jump Box
Take off from both feet and land on the box on ONE foot, the other knee lifted; stand up on that leg and step down.
How to do it
Setup
Facing a low box a short step away, feet hip-width, arms ready to swing.
Steps
- Dip and swing the arms, then jump from both feet.
- Land on one foot on the box, knee bent over the toes, the other knee up.
- Stand tall on that leg, step down and alternate the landing leg.
Common mistakes
Box too tall for a one-foot catch: go lower until the landing is still. Landing knee caving inward: keep it over the middle toes. Putting the second foot down to save the landing: the box is too high; lower it.
Breathing
Exhale on the jump, inhale on the step-down.
