Skeletal & Joint Considerations

Muscle Function Examples

  • Squat jumps: Glutes, quads, hamstrings, calves – power and stability
  • Core tucks / knee lifts: Rectus abdominis, obliques, hip flexors – trunk control
  • Balance & stabilization: Core stabilizers, deep spinal muscles, glutes – prevent wobble and control rebound
