1. Starting Position:
- Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and arms at your sides.
- Ensure your posture is upright and your core is engaged.
2. Squat Down:
- Lower your body into a squat by bending your knees and pushing your hips back.
- Keep your chest up and back straight. Aim to get your thighs parallel to the ground if possible.
3. Jump and Extend:
- From the squat position, explode upwards into a jump.
- As you jump, extend your arms straight up above your head.
- Your feet should come together in the air.
4. Land:
- Land softly by bending your knees as you come back down.
- Return directly into the squat position immediately after landing, ensuring stability.
5. Repetition:
- Repeat the jump and squat movement for the desired number of repetitions.
- Focus on maintaining good form throughout the exercise.
Tips:
- Start with a lower jump if you are a beginner, gradually increasing height as you become more comfortable.
- Make sure to focus on breaching the squat position properly each time before jumping.
- Work on controlling your landing to prevent any knee or ankle strain.
