Would you like to try out gymnastics jumps?Core jumps in gymnastics help improve the gymnast's height, speed and agility when performing her or his routines.Many of the jumps are used in other activities, such as dance, parkour, acrobatics, trampolining, ice skating, exercise routines and the like.A brief explanation of each jump style is provided in this article.
Step 1: All jumps can be performed on a suitable surface.
To minimize the risk of injury to your body, choose a soft surface before jumping.A surface that is both flat and soft is a suitable one.Soft playground surfaces designed to break the impact of falls are ideal.You are advised to have a spotter who can watch you and help if you need it.If you want to perform the jumps, you need someone who knows how to do them and can give you a hands-on demonstration.
Step 2: Start by jumping the jack or star.
It's also used for training military recruits, as a physical education exercise in schools and as part of numerous exercise programs worldwide.It's an exercise that can be done almost anywhere.Warm up first so you don't hurt yourself.Stand with your legs apart and knees bent.You should have your arms to your sides.If you want to squat down, bend your knees.As high as you can go, jump up vertically.Bring your arms up to point at a 45 degree angle from your head toward the sky, while extending your legs out similarly.This will become the "star" shape.Bring your legs and arms back in as you descend.With your knees bent, aim to land in the same spot.The landing position prepares you for each launch.
Step 3: Try the straight jump.
Straight jumps can be used in more than gymnastics, for example in parkour, martial arts and even snowboarding.Warm up first if you want to avoid hurting yourself.Stand in a straight stance.Keep your legs together.Go into a plié.Jump straight up.To reach above your head as you enter mid-air, point your toes and extend your arms past your ears.Land in a plié.The landing position prepares you for each launch.
Step 4: Try to do a tuck jump after mastering the straight jump.
The tuck jump is used to increase the vertical jump of athletes, increasing both power and agility through repeated practice.Warm up first so you don't hurt yourself.This step needs to be overlooked.Stand with your feet shoulder width apart.Have your knees bent.Keep your head up and your eyes open.To squat low, bend your knees.From the squat position, push yourself upward.Bring your knees up to your chest when you reach mid-air.Place your arms around your legs.As you descend, let your legs go and land on your knees.Go straight into another squat.As desired, repeat as many times as you please.If used too much, this jump can damage your joints.
Step 5: Follow with a straddle jump.
The straddle jump is often used in cheerleading, dancing and gymnastics and is also known as the "toe touch."You should be able to perform a center split before attempting this jump.You can improve your technique by practicing on a trampoline.This jump isn't "just happen."It takes a lot of practice and concentration on improving your technique, so don't push yourself too hard, especially not without help from a qualified trainer.If you want to do a risky jump alone, always do it with a spotter.The spotter can help you by holding your back at the waist level.Warm up first so you don't hurt yourself.For the first time, use a chair.The chair should be weighed to make sure it doesn't topple over.If you want to practice jumping up and down, hold onto the back of the chair.If you feel confident, you should add the split.The support should be removed.Stand with both feet together and have your arms by your sides.Stay relaxed.Go down to the floor.You can balance yourself on the floor by raising your heels slightly.Look up, breathe in, and then push yourself up from the floor to take off.If you want to jump up into the air as high as you can, you need the strength in your legs.When jumping high, point your toes out and bring your legs out to the sides.Your arms should be extended toward your toes.Your eyes should face forward and your head should be upright.Pull your legs back together as you descend, knees bent.As required, repeat as many times as necessary.
Step 6: Practice doing a split jump.
The straddle jump is popular in gymnastics and dance.There is a split jump used in figure skating, but it is not covered here.This method is not covered because you barely leave the ground, which is a general gym or exercise technique.180 degrees of separation of the legs is a goal in gymnastics.If you warm up first you will hurt yourself.Your arms are hanging by your sides while you stand with both feet together.Stay relaxed.As high as you can, jump upward.The legs should be split mid-air.As you are in mid-air, pull one leg forward and the other behind.Point the toes.Pull your legs back into the original position when you are about to land.For gymnasts, this jump is often landed on a beam, but never practiced without proper supervision from a qualified gym instructor.As required, repeat.
