How to Jump Like a Maasai
- Minimal knee bent. Your legs should be straight, and avoid deep squats. Focus on a quick, elastic extension from the hip and ankle.
- Upright stance: Keep a tall, upright posture, and engage your core stability.
- Your ankle should be flexed to give you a powerful push.
- Use your arms to get momentum and balance swinging them upwards.
- Land on your balls softly to absorb the impact on your legs and ankles.
Jumping like a Maasai is simple if you follow these steps. It’s about your technique, so ensure you train. Don’t put pressure on your knees and legs, as it might cause aches, and if you do it badly, you might sprain your legs. Gradually, build your strength and polish your technique.
