    How to: Jack Jump

    1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart.
    2. Lower into a slight squat before jumping.
    3. Jump up explosively while swinging your arms upwards.
    4. Land softly and immediately go into the next jump.

    • Landing hard instead of softly.
    • Not engaging the core.
    • Not using the arms efficiently for momentum.
