The Squat Gauntlet — 7 Different Squats, 1 Grueling Workout
6. Jump Squat Plyometrics
2 sets — 15 reps, no weight
Rest — 30 seconds
Target Muscles: Quads, Hamstrings, Butt
Jump squat plyometrics add an element of UBER intense cardio, athleticism, and fat burning to this otherwise power and strength-driven workout.
From a standing position squat down as low as possible and explode upwards into the air. Touch the ground, pause .5 seconds and repeat the movement. Complete 15 reps, rest 30 seconds, and repeat for a second set.
No weights, this is purely geared towards cardio and lower body power.
