How to do it

  1. Stand tall with your back straight, feet shoulder-width apart, and clasp your hands in front of your chest.

  2. Lower your hips, jump up and land into a squat position with your knees bent, thighs parallel to the floor, and feet placed wider than your shoulder width.

  3. Then lower your hips again, jump up, and land into a squat position with your knees bent, thighs parallel to the floor, and feet placed hip-width apart this time.

  4. Repeat by jumping in and out alternately.

Form tips

  • Land softly on your forefeet to reduce impact on your joints.

  • Ensure your knees are aligned with your toes when you squat to avoid strain.

  • Move quickly but with control to maximize the effectiveness of the exercise and prevent injury.
