Instructions
1. Start by standing upright with your feet shoulder-width apart and arms crossed in front of you.
2. Bend your knees slightly and then explosively jump up into the air as high as you can.
3. While in mid-air, tuck your knees towards your chest by bringing them up as high as possible.
4. Extend your legs back out as you begin to descend back towards the ground, preparing for impact.
5. Land softly on the balls of your feet with your knees slightly bent to absorb the impact and minimize the stress on your joints.
6. Immediately repeat the movement, maintaining a quick and explosive motion for each jump.
7. Perform the exercise for the recommended number of repetitions and sets.
Caution: This exercise is high-impact and may not be suitable for individuals with knee or ankle issues. It is important to have a strong foundation in lower-body strength and stability before attempting knee tuck jumps. Always warm up properly before engaging in plyometric exercises.
