How to do jump lunge

Coach's Tips

This is a comprehensive workout incorporating both lower body training and cardiovascular exercise. Maintain the lunge position, even if it becomes challenging!

Start Position

1. Position your feet shoulder-width apart, with toes pointing forward.

2. Either place your hands on your hips or extend them straight ahead for balance.

Proper Form

1. Lower your body into a lunge, ensuring your front knee aligns with your ankle while your back knee approaches the floor.

2. Push off the ground forcefully and jump upwards, switching legs in midair.

3. Gently land on the opposite leg, returning to a lunge position.

Breathing Technique

1. Breathe in as you descend into the lunge and exhale as you jump.

2. Inhale upon landing and resetting back into the lunge.

Precautions

1. Ensure a gentle landing to avoid slamming your feet down.

2. Do not lock your knees while in the lunge position.

3. Beginners should start with a minimal jump height, gradually increasing as their strength and balance improve.
