Explosive Step-Up Jumps

Place one foot on a sturdy box or bench, drive aggressively through the lead leg into a maximal vertical jump off the box, and land softly under control.

Key points

  • Generate vertical propulsion entirely through the lead leg on the box
  • Reach maximal triple extension of the hip, knee, and ankle
  • Land softly back on the box absorbing impact cleanly

Common mistakes

Pushing off the ground with the trailing foot instead of using the top leg.
