Exercise: Two Squat, three Jumps
Execution: · Stand with the feet shoulder width apart, placing your hands on your waist. · Bend your knees and push your hips back to come into a squat. Squat down as if you were performing three normal squats; in the third squat engage your core and jump in the air explosively. On landing, lower the body back into the squat position and repeat the jump. Continue with two squats alternating with three squat jumps. · Repetitions : Do as many repetitions of this exercise as you can in one minute, on a high intensity. Avoid common mistakes: · Don’t let your knees bow inward at any point during the squat. They should be neutral, rather than diving in or diving out. Keep them in line with your toes. · Bend your knees and push your hips back as if you would sit down on a chair—don’t let knees go past toes. Keeping your lower leg straight is the best way to protect your knees. · Maintain a posture as close to upright as possible. Kee...
