Broad Jump — quadriceps compound exercise in the LIFTAG library

Broad Jump

Compound · Weight × reps

Land on both feet at the same time, absorbing force through the ankles, knees, and hips with the knees tracking over the toes. The standing broad jump develops horizontal lower-body power and practises deceleration. Use a clear, non-slip landing area, begin with submaximal distances, keep repetitions low and rested, and stop when landing noise, balance, or alignment deteriorates.
