Plyometrics are a great way to improve your power and speed. It’s also a great way to burn fat. That’s why for this week I have chosen to include a Plyometric move. I call it “power move” and its a combination of two upper and lowerbody movements, box jumps and pushups. Make sure that you are well rested before doing this exercise, because it will wear you out. So this is what you do:

First thing first, you want to set up a box in front of you. Choose an appropriate height for your skill level. Next, you want to stand a couple of feet away from the box and squat down. Keep your weight over your heels and tighten up your mid-section.

Now you want to jump as fast as possible onto the top of the box. Remember to push off from the heels. Land softly and stand up straight.

From there jump forward onto the ground and position yourself on all fours.

Proceed to do a quick pushup. Make sure to go all the way down.

Once you complete the maneuver, turn around and do it again. You want to do between 8-12 repetitions of it. Try it out and see how it feels. And don’t forget to bring a towel.
