K4 | Box Jump and Rotation
| Choose a box that is the right height for you (if you are unsure, start low and work up to higher boxes as you progress). Stand with feet hip width apart facing side on to box, switch on glutes and thighs, and use arms to propel you as you jump and turn 90 deg at the same time, landing onto the box. Try to control your landing by bending knees and attempting to land as quietly and as controlled as you can. Ensure knees dont roll in. Finish off by standing straight once you have landed and are steady. |
