Depth Jump

How to Do Depth Jump: Step by Step

1. Step off box (don't jump off)
2. Land with both feet, absorb impact
3. Immediately explode upward for max height
4. Land the second jump softly with bent knees

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Jumping off the box instead of stepping off
• Spending too long on the ground before jumping — it should be reactive
• Using too high a box — start with 12-18 inches

Depth Jump Tips

• The box height matters — if your jump after landing is lower than your regular jump, the box is too high
• Do these FRESH — beginning of workout, fully recovered between reps
• 3-5 reps per set is plenty — this is about quality, not fatigue
