Do you want higher, lighter, more powerful jumps? It’s not about the quantity of jumps… it’s about how you build the strength behind them. This is what progressive loading looks like in dance training 👇
In the studio, dancers often repeat jumps hoping for improvement. But without enough strength capacity, you’re just reinforcing the same limits (and increasing injury risk).
Progressive loading = gradually increasing demand on your muscles so they can adapt.
That means:
✔️ Building foundational strength (glutes, calves, quads, deep core)
✔️ Progressing load (weights, resistance, instability, range)
✔️ Bridging strength → power → plyometrics
In this exercise, we’re challenging:
🔹 Posterior chain strength
🔹 Core control on an unstable surface
🔹 Load tolerance through range
This is what prepares the body to produce and absorb force in jumps. Because better jumps aren’t just about technique, they’re about having the strength to support it.
Train smarter. Jump higher. Stay healthier. 💥
