How to perform

  1. 1

    Assume a half squat position facing 90 degrees from your direction of travel. This will be your starting position.

  2. 2

    Allow your lead leg to do a countermovement inward as you shift your weight to the outside leg.

  3. 3

    Immediately push off and extend, attempting to bound to the side as far as possible.

  4. 4

    Upon landing, immediately push off in the opposite direction, returning to your original start position.

  5. 5

    Continue back and forth for several repetitions.

Important tips

  • Drive through your whole foot, not just your toes.

  • Keep your knees tracking over your toes.

  • An honest range of motion beats a heavier load.
