How to perform it

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 01Hold light dumbbells at your sides and take a stable split stance with both feet pointing forward.
  2. 02Bend both knees to descend into a lunge while keeping your torso upright and your front knee aligned with your toes.
  3. 03Drive through both feet to jump upward and switch the position of your legs in the air.
  4. 04Land softly in the opposite split stance, immediately bending both knees to absorb the impact with the front knee aligned.
  5. 05Continue alternating only while you can control each landing; stop the set if the dumbbells swing or your alignment deteriorates.
