How To Do A Jump Squat Correctly
The Jump Squat is a fantastic plyometric exercise that targets the muscles in your legs, including your quadriceps, hamstrings, and glutes, and will really jack up your heart rate.
To get started:
- With your feet hip width apart and chest up, lower your body into a squat, by first bending at the hips, followed by the knees, until your thighs are parallel to the floor.
- Then explosively push your feet through the floor to jump as high as you can.
- Land softly to cushion to your joints and immediately lower your body into another squat.
- Repeat for reps.
