Conseils techniques
Ensure you have the correct form when performing the exercise. Your feet should be hip-width apart, and when you jump, try to land softly to minimize impact on your knees. A common mistake is landing too hard which can lead to knee injuries.
Use your arms to help propel you upwards. Swing them forward as you jump, and bring them back as you land. Many people forget to use their arms, but they can give you extra momentum.
