Frog Jump
From a deep wide squat with the hands low between the knees, jump straight up and land back in the same squat, in place.
How to do it
Setup
Deep wide squat, toes turned out, hands hanging between the knees near the floor.
Steps
- Drive straight UP out of the deep squat.
- Land softly on the same spot, the whole foot down.
- Sink straight back into the deep squat before the next jump.
Common mistakes
Drifting forward on each jump: the jump goes straight up and lands where it took off. Standing up between jumps: the deep squat is home; sink back into it. Landing stiff on the toes: soft knees, the whole foot catches.
Breathing
Exhale on the jump, inhale in the squat.
