This is a speed-strength, lower-body plyometric.<\/p>\n

1. Begin by standing atop an 18 inch or taller box (if you have no experience with this exercise, use a standard bench such as one for bench presses, etc.).<\/p>\n

2. Jump off the box and flex your knees so that when you hit the floor\/ground that they bend 3-4 inches or more.<\/p>\n

3. Immediately jump upward into the air as high as you can; when your feet hit the floor again, jump once more as high as you can, i.e., two jumps in sequence, hence the name the double rebound.<\/p>\n

4. Take care when you jump not to be stiff legged or to land flat footed; land on the balls of your feet, flexing your knees.<\/p>\n

5. Return to starting position atop the box for beginning of next repetition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
