Jump Squat

BodyweightQuads, Glutes, Calves

An air squat that finishes with a jump. Land softly and flow straight into the next rep.

How to do it

  • Drive through the whole foot
  • Land softly with bent knees
  • Reset your balance before the next rep if needed

Watch out for

  • Knees caving on the landing
  • Landing on the toes only

Make it easier

Do air squats and finish each rep with a calf raise instead of a jump.
