How To Do Broad Jumps

Broad jumps are a plyometric exercise which strengthens your squats, calves, hamstrings, and hip flexors, and it can help to improve your power and speed. Learn how to do broad jumps with our PT led demonstrations.
1. Make sure there is plenty of space in front of you.
2. Stand with feet hip-distance apart, feet slightly pointed out.
3. Swing your arms back behind you to help you gain momentum as you perform the squat movement.
4. As soon as your hips lower between a quarter to a half squat, swing both of your arms forward as you jump as far in front of you.
5. Try landing lightly with both feet at shoulder-distance apart. If you put your weight towards the front your feet as you land this can help you maintain balance.
