    How to: Alternate High Hop

    1. Start by standing upright with your feet shoulder-width apart.
    2. Engage your core and prepare to jump.
    3. Jump as high as you can, switching your feet in the air.
    4. Land softly on the balls of your feet and repeat.

    Common Mistakes

    • Landing hard instead of softly.
    • Not using proper form or alignment.
    • Failing to engage the core.

    Modifications

    • Perform the hops at a lower height if needed.
    • Use a softer surface to reduce impact.

    Tips

    • Engage your core to maintain stability.
    • Focus on landing softly to protect your knees.
    • Keep your chest upright during the hops.
