Frog Hops
Consecutive forward hops from a half squat with the hands behind the head, each landing sinking straight into the next take-off.
How to do it
Setup
Standing, feet hip-width, hands behind the head, elbows wide.
Steps
- Sink into a half squat and hop forward off both feet.
- Land softly on both feet, the knees bending into the next dip.
- Hop again straight away, the hands staying behind the head.
Common mistakes
Pulling on the head with the hands: they only rest there; the elbows stay wide. Landing on straight legs: bend the knees to catch every hop. Knees caving on the landing: push them out over the toes.
Breathing
Exhale on the jump, inhale landing.
