Plyo Jacks
A jumping jack that lands in a deep wide squat with the arms reaching overhead, then jumps back up to standing.
How to do it
Setup
Standing tall, feet together, hands on the hips.
Steps
- Jump the feet wide and land in a deep squat, the arms reaching overhead.
- Drive out of the squat and jump the feet back together.
- Land softly with the hands back on the hips.
Common mistakes
Knees caving in the wide squat: push them out over the toes. Chest dropping at the bottom: arms up, chest up. Stiff landing at the top: soft knees on every landing.
Breathing
Exhale on the jump, inhale landing.
