Instructions:

  • 1Hold a pair of dumbbells at your sides, stand with your feet hip-width apart.
  • 2Lower your body into a deep squat, keep your chest up and knees over your toes.
  • 3Press your feet into the ground to jump as high as you can.
  • 4Land softly, and immediately lower into your next squat.
  • 5Repeat the process for a set of reps.

Tips:

  • Engage your core throughout the workout to support your spine.
  • Ensure your knees don’t cave in as you squat or land from the jump.
  • Breathe out as you jump and inhale as you go into the squat.
  • Aim for quality, not quantity. It's important to get the form right rather than doing more reps.
