Some helpful workouts to get you started
Quick hops
- Once or twice a week, in the middle of your regular workouts, bound from foot to foot for about 30 meters at a time.
- Try to maximize your “air time” while minimizing the amount of time each foot spends on the ground.
- In other words, push hard and fast with the contact foot. Make sure that you cover more distance with these bounds than you do with your normal strides.

- Jog easily for 15 seconds to recover, and then repeat twice more.
