Coaching Cues:

Before starting:
Take your time if necessary as this exercise can be exerting.
Start by standing feet width apart. Engage your core.
Inhale as you squat down, bending your knees.
Quickly explode from the squat into a jump, extending your hips as you do so!
Land with soft knees, and attempt to perform consecutive reps to increase the heart rate and really work the legs.
