Tuck Jump

How To Do A Tuck Jump Correctly

The Tuck Jump is a fantastic plyometric exercise that targets the legs, including the glutes, hamstrings, and quadriceps, and quickly elevates your heart rate.

To get started:

1. Stand with a hip width stance, knees slightly bent, and swing both arms back as you hinge at the hips, then swing your arms forward as your jump straight up into the air, while bringing your knees up as high as you can.
2. Tap your knees with your hands, then land softly with slightly bent knees.
3. Keep your elbows bent and arms in front of you as you continue tucking your knees up high with every jump.
4. Repeat for reps.
