tuck jumps

Leaping knee raises

Tuck jumps are an explosive exercise where you jump vertically and pull your knees up toward your chest at the peak, then land and immediately repeat.

Common in plyometric training, HIIT workouts, and sports conditioning for building power and agility: We finished the circuit with twenty tuck jumps.
