Fitness Friday: JUMP into SPRING!

Plyometric, or plyo for short, stands for “jump training.”  Plyometric exercises are characterized by an eccentric (shortening) movement followed immediately by a concentric (lengthening) movement.  A plyometric workout is a great way to increase your heart rate with a fast, high intensity full body workout.

Try out this plyometric workout of five exercises and jump into spring!



Complete 20 repetitions of each exercise with a 30 second rest period before moving onto the next exercise!

Repeat this circuit 2 times.

Squat jump

Plank Jack

Switch lunges

Burpee

Lateral hops
