Instructions
- Position a number of cones in a row several feet apart.
- Stand next to the end of the cones, facing 90 degrees to the direction of travel. This will be your starting position.
- Begin the jump by dipping with the knees to initiate a stretch reflex, and immediately reverse direction to push off the ground, jumping up and sideways over the cone.
- Use your legs to absorb impact upon landing, and rebound into the next jump, continuing down the row of cones.
