Technique
Setup
Stand with feet shoulder-width apart.
Movement
Squat down, place your hands on the floor, jump your feet back to a plank, perform a push-up, jump your feet back in, and explode up into a jump.
Form Tip
Keep your core tight in the plank — no sagging hips between phases.
Increase Difficulty
Add a tuck jump at the top or speed up the pace.
Decrease Difficulty
Step the feet back and forward instead of jumping, and skip the push-up.
