jump start the body

In "halleluJUMP," we looked at how to do a vertical jump. The mechanics to jump forward are a little different. Here's some pointers in the following tutorial: 

Lean forward to initiate the jump and swing the arms back (before the push)

Don't bend the legs too deeply for a more powerful explosion

Drive the knees up and swing arms forward for more propulsion

Bring feet in front of you for landing. Aim for accuracy of landing. 

We document and share a catalog of movements. This blog and the videos are for entertainment purposes only. Please seek guidance from a certified instructor to be sure you move with proper biomechanics and safety.
