Sets: 6
Reps: 3 per leg, switching positions in mid-air
Tempo: Fast!
Rest Interval: 90 seconds between sets
Start from a jump squat position with roughly 30% of your 1RM dynamic barbell lunge. With the scapulae pulled back and down, explode up and extend one leg forward in mid-air. Upon landing, immediately drive directly upward, once again propelling yourself into the air, where you'll extend the other leg forward and repeat twice for a total of 6 "landings." You should attempt to have as long a stride as possible, but most will find that these dynamic efforts require them to keep the front foot slightly closer to the body than with normal barbell lunges. This is a must for any athlete looking to prevent groin strains from occurring with powerful split-second changes in direction |
