Cross Body Jack

Rep Range

Time Based

Hints

Focus on the simultaneous coordination of arms and legs during each jump. Think of the movement as a rhythmic dance, engaging both the upper and lower body. As you cross your limbs, ensure each action is deliberate and controlled. Engaging the core throughout can help stabilize and balance the motion, especially as you shift from side to side. Remember to alternate the placement of your limbs with each repetition.

Common Mistakes

Avoid rushing the movement, which can compromise form and result in not fully crossing the limbs. Keep a steady pace, ensuring precision in each jump and cross. It's essential to stay upright and avoid leaning to one side. Keeping the core disengaged might lead to instability or an off-balanced movement.

Breathing

Inhale during the jump and cross of your limbs, and exhale as you open back up to the starting stance. This rhythm will promote a steady pace and ensure your muscles receive the oxygen they need.
