How to do the Linear Depth Jump
You will need two boxes or benches spaced a few feet away from each other. Begin by standing on one box facing towards the other platform.
To initiate the movement, gently drop down to the ground between your platforms, allowing the knees and hips to flex.
Reverse the motion by exploding, extending through the hips, knees, and ankles to jump onto the other platform.
Land softly, asborbing the impact through the legs.
Sets and reps
| Goal | Sets | Reps | Rest |
|---|---|---|---|
| Muscle growth | 3–4 | 6–15 | 1 min |
| Muscular endurance | 2–3 | 15–20 | 1 min |
When you hit the top of the rep range on every set, add a rep or a harder variation next session.
Starting points from training research. Stop each set 1–3 reps short of failure.
Muscles worked
Primary
Secondary
The front of your thighs straightens the knee. Squats, leg presses and lunges with deep knee bend build them; leg extensions isolate them.
