frog jump
Crouching squat leap
A frog jump is a plyometric exercise where you squat low and leap forward explosively, landing in another squat—mimicking how a frog moves.
Also called a frog hop.
In children's games and fitness drills, frog jumps test leg power and endurance: We did frog jumps across the gym floor.
