How to do it

Land softly on the balls of your feet each jump.

  1. 1

    Start in a plank position with your hands under your shoulders and feet together.

  2. 2

    As you lower into a push-up, jump your feet out to the sides.

  3. 3

    Push back up to the plank position while jumping your feet back together.

  4. 4

    Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.

Expert tip

Keep your body in a straight line from head to heels and avoid sagging hips to maintain proper form and engage the core.
