How to Perform
1
Begin in a relaxed stance with your feet shoulder width apart and hold your arms close to the body.
2
To initiate the move, squat down halfway and explode back up as high as possible.
3
Fully extend your entire body, reaching overhead as far as possible. As you land, absorb your impact through the legs.
