Description

  • Start with one foot on the floor and the other foot on top of the box.
  • Jump so that the bottom foot lands on the box, while the top foot lands on the floor to the opposite side of the box.
  • Immediately jump back to the other side, landing the same way you started.
  • Repeat without pausing during the landing phases. (Both feet always land at the same time.)

ProTip

  • Explosively swinging your arms up helps with jump height

Mistakes

  • Going over the box lazily
  • Hunching and not keeping the chest up
  • Ground-contact takes too long at the sides
