Weighted Jump Squat
The Weighted Jump Squat is a strength movement that targets your quadriceps. Here's how to do it with clean form.
How to do the Weighted Jump Squat
- Hold a barbell across your upper back with feet shoulder-width apart.
- Descend into a squat to roughly parallel, then explode upward through the floor.
- Land softly with bent knees and immediately reload into the next rep.
- Use a light load — bar speed and landing mechanics matter more than weight here.
