Jump Squat

Compound · Weight × reps

Dip into a controlled squat, swing the arms if desired, and drive through the floor to jump vertically. Land softly on the forefeet and heels with hips and knees bending, stabilize, then reset before the next jump. Avoid repeated jumps when landings become loud, stiff, or off balance. Begin with snap-downs or low jumps and prioritize consistent height and landing quality; add continuous rebounds only after you can absorb each contact confidently.
