Muscles worked – Legs, Glutes and Core<br />
Benefit – Leg strength and increased jumping capacity<br />
Take your feet slightly wider than hips to find an athletic squat position. Start to bend the knees then<br />
explosively jump up into the air and rotate the body. As you are in the air, turn the body 180 degrees<br />
and land with soft knees facing in the opposite direction.<br />
