The How To Stretching Zone

LUNGE JUMP = LUNGE LEAP

December 2nd, 2009

This will train your body for all the most useful abilities on the sports field: balance, stability, speed and power. So if your after becoming the best footballer with all round technical ability, speed and power – this is a great stretch for all field sports. Lunge jumps work the glutes, quads, hamstrings and – if you do them for more than a minute – your cardiovascular system.
Begin sitting in a lunge position, jump up by swapping your legs over in mid-air. Land in the lunge position, absorb the impact, then launch to the next one. So jump, swap your legs, land back in the lunge position and then jump again and switch over.
