Plyometric Exercises | at Home or Anywhere
Hello everyone!
Plyometrics are basically movements involving jumping with maximum effort!
Plyometrics not only burn lots of calories in a short space of time, but improve your endurance, strength and overall athleticism!
Incorporating jumps into training also recruits stabiliser muscles you maybe wouldn’t use often and thus strengthening areas that can help reduce risk of injury in other movements such as sprints and balance work.
They can be fun to try and really get your heart rate up!
If you want to use this as a main workout, you will definitely get so much out of this if you are giving maximum effort from your muscles! I would recommend spending at least 15 minutes for a good session!
If you are new to jumping, try squat jumps and take it easy. Practice landing with as much ease and little noise as possible!
Here are some different types of plyometric exercises you can introduce into your weekly training whether it be between sprints, intervals during a longer run or at home as a complete workout!
1. High Knees
2. Power Skip – Height
3. Power Skip – Distance
4. Frog Jumps
5. Squat Bounds
6. Side Squat Jumps
7. Hop to Jump
8. Squat Jump to Leap
Enjoy!
