BFIT Hops1

We are hopping into May! Hopping takes strength, power and balance. Hopping is usually faster than jumping. We have been building up our leg muscles to help us get ready to hop. Once again, we should think about what our knees are doing when we land. Your knee is like a spring or a shock on a bike. When you hop your knee should bend and straighten, it is really important to not land with you knee straight like a stick. If hopping is hard on one leg, then hop with both legs to start.
