How to Do a Frog Jump Exercise


- Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart.
- Lower your hips backward taking you into a three-quarter squat. Bring your arms forward in front of you.
- Push the floor away through the balls of your feet, quickly extend your legs, swing your arms behind you like a pendulum and thrust your pelvis. Use the explosive power to propel yourself forward.
- This exercise is more about distance rather than height, so jump as far as you can, not as high as you can.
- Soften your landing by bending your knees and absorbing the impact.
- Immediately go back into the three-quarter squat. Bring your arms forward, ready to swing them back as you jump again.
- Continue to jump forward until you run out of floor space or you’ve reached the end of your track.
- Turn around and repeat for as many lengths as required.
