Next, we’ve got the jump squat exercise.
Now, the jump squat is quite an advanced exercise. So, if you’re not ready for the jump squat, I recommend you practice the regular squat first, and I’ll show you that in just a second. But the jump squat is a very, very powerful, all over body exercise.
It’s a very explosive exercise.
It works most muscles in the body, but in particular the thighs and the glutes, the buttocks at the back and also really gets the heart rate up.
So, let me show you how to do the jump squat:
- So, feet a little bit wider than shoulder width apart.
- Hands up by the ears.
- We sit back into a regular squat.
- Next, thighs go down to parallel with the floor.
- We explode up.
- And land down with soft knees.
And that’s it. See if you can continuously do all 50 repetitions. Very tough exercise.
If you’re not ready for the jump squat, then please practice the regular squat first.
It’s just as powerful, if you’re not at an advanced level.
- Now the regular squat, you sit back down into the squat.
- Pause.
- Come back up.
- And extend the hips at the top.
- Let me show you from the side.
- Sit back down.
- Weight on your heels.
- Knees out slightly.
- Push up and extend the hips.
Incidentally, when you’re doing the jump squats, make sure you push your hips forward at the top. So, don’t just jump up like this. Make sure the hips come through at the top. That’s the jump squat.
You’re doing to do 50 reps of that. It’s a tough one, but I think you’re going to enjoy it. Best of luck.
