Step by step instructions, muscle activation and variants for the Single Leg Box Jump.
The single leg box jump is an advanced plyometric exercise that trains explosive unilateral power in the lower body. Jumping from and landing on one leg challenges balance, coordination, and reactive strength of the quadriceps and glutes.
The Single Leg Box Jump is a foundational movement that builds strength and muscle through controlled, progressive overload. Train it 1 to 2 times per week with 3 to 5 working sets per session, gradually adding weight or reps as form holds up.
