Jumping Squat

A number of different foot positions can be used, either close - normal or wide stance, however always take off and land with two feet firmly on the floor. You may even decide to land with wide feet, and bring your feet closer in the during the jumping phase, however this method is much harder.

START	FINISH

Commence the movement having your legs bent to a position whereby you feel the effects of your body weight on your quadriceps, lowering your buttocks 8 - 14 inches down towards the floor.

Rather than smoothly rising back up to your starting position, explode upwards, taking both feet 4 - 10 inches off the floor.

On landing control the impact by absorbing your weight by smoothly bending your legs to your desired lowered position, landing on both feet, prior to repeating again for desired amount of reps.
