This drill requires a medicine ball. 


1. Start with your legs apart, holding the med ball at chest height
2. Squat so your knees are at least 90 degrees 

3. Explode upward as high as you can, keeping your legs open and ready to transition to the next squat 


This drill builds explosive leg power.
