How to Jump Dumbbell Squat

Starting Position

1. Stand with a light dumbbell in each hand and your feet shoulder-width apart.

2. Keep your arms naturally by your sides and puff out your chest.

Proper Form

1. Push your hips back and lower into a deep squat position.

2. Push off the ground strongly and jump upwards.

3. When landing, slightly bend your knees to absorb the impact and immediately transition into the next squat.

Breathing Technique

Breathe in while going down, and exhale while jumping up.

Precautions

1. Start with a weight that feels 'light' for the dumbbells.

2. Focus on a soft landing to reduce knee and ankle impact.

3. Please check if the floor is not slippery and if there is enough space around you.
