| Ski Jumps | Ski jumps are more of a whole-body movement than side hops and are similar to skiing, focusing on moving your body not only up and down but also in a lateral, side-to-side movement. These are a good progression from side hops if well-tolerated and are considered an intermediate exercise.
Step 1: Start by standing with your feet approximately shoulder-width apart with your elbows straight and your hands by your sides and slightly behind you.
Step 2: Imagine there is an invisible line between your feet. Using your entire body, jump with both feet at the same time, about a foot from each side of the imaginary line, while simultaneously using your arms to provide added momentum. Be sure to land firmly on both feet.
Step 3: Jump side-to-side for two minutes per set and try to do three sets.
While this exercise may seem hard at first, try to stay with it and simply do what you can to build up over time. | | Explore More Fitness |
