How to Perform
- Stand with feet hip-width apart and arms slightly out for balance
- Jump off the ground using your calves and ankles, keeping your knees relatively stiff
- Land on the balls of both feet and immediately rebound into the next jump
- Minimize ground contact time — bounce quickly like a pogo stick
- Keep your body upright and your core braced throughout
- Avoid excessive knee bend; the movement should feel springy and ankle-driven
- Maintain a steady rhythm for the prescribed number of reps or duration
