Exercise: Single-Leg Box Jumps

• Same as Box Jumps but off one leg

• Adjust elevation height accordingly

• Perform 5-10 jumps for each leg

Harrison’s take: “We like box jumps because you land higher than where you take off, so there isn’t a lot of impact. Reduced impact allows for more jumps per session with less recovery time.

“With box jumps, we have each athlete jump as high as she can—regardless of her height, jumping ability or the height of the box. Jump like you’re jumping over something, and then land softly.”
