Repeated Small Jumps
Two-footed jumps over a row of mini hurdles, one straight after another; each landing is the take-off for the next.
How to do it
Setup
Standing behind a row of low mini hurdles, feet hip-width, arms bent.
Steps
- Jump over the first hurdle on both feet.
- Touch down briefly on the balls of the feet and jump the next one.
- Land soft after the last hurdle and walk back to the start.
Common mistakes
Stopping between hurdles: the contacts stay short so the jumps link. Tucking the feet late and clipping a bar: lift the knees early. Knees caving on the contacts: track them over the toes.
Breathing
Exhale on each jump, inhale walking back.
