BOSU Side Jumps



Side Hops
Stand to the left of the BOSU and jump sideways onto the BOSU, landing with right foot in the middle of the dome, left knee bent and body upright. Step back down and repeat, each time trying to land the foot right in the 'bull's eye' of the dome. After you land, hold your balance for a couple of counts before you step back down. Repeat 16 times on the right and then switch sides.



In addition to being a good cardio and core work out, you are gaining a lot of strength in your legs by doing this.

A good alternative, if you don't have a BOSU, is to do a series of short jumps from side to side and alternate them with long side jumps.

You'll get a good cardio workout from this!
