Strength exercise

A-Skip

How to do it

Stand tall with a slight forward lean, core braced, and arms bent at 90 degrees.
Drive the right knee up to hip height, extending the hip with the glutes to pop off the ground.
Rise onto the ball of the left foot as the right knee lifts, keeping the ankle stiff to load the calves.
Snap the raised foot down actively under the hips, engaging the quadriceps to reset the stride.
Alternate sides in a quick skipping rhythm, swinging the arms opposite the driving leg.
Keep the cadence light and fast, minimizing ground contact time on each skip.
