How to move
- Bounce in place on both feet with the legs long and stiff, using the ankles as the spring. Aim for tall posture, minimal knee bend, short ground contacts and quiet landings on the balls of the feet.
Practice and cautions
5 sets of 15 hops with a minute rest, chasing quiet contacts rather than height.
Avoid during acute Achilles or plantar heel pain, and talk to a clinician first if you have osteoporosis or a recent stress fracture.
