Take the squat to the next level with the jump squat. Not only will this exercise continue to strengthen your legs, it will also help develop explosiveness in the thigh and glutes. This is useful when parallel turning on the steeper slopes.
Here’s how to perform the squat jump:
- Start with your feet shoulder-width apart.
- Perform a squat, then jump high into the air.
- Land back on both feet and try to dampen the shock by landing on the front of the feet first.
Quantity:
- Perform 4 sets of 10 jumps.
- Take a short break to catch your breath between each set.
Point of attention:
- Try to land on your feet as softly as possible.
