Double Leg Butt Kick

What it is

This dynamic plyometric movement involves an explosive jump where you actively kick your heels towards your glutes. It primarily strengthens your quadriceps, while also engaging your glutes, hamstrings, and calves for power.

Technique tips

• Actively drive your heels up towards your buttocks.
• Land softly with bent knees to absorb impact.
• Focus on quick, powerful transitions from squat to jump.
• Engage your core to maintain a stable torso.
• Exhale as you jump, inhale on the landing.
• Keep your gaze forward throughout the movement.

How to track your progress

Log reps, and add the extra load if you wear a belt or a vest. Straddly counts your bodyweight in the estimated max, so added weight and extra reps both show up as progress, and new records are flagged during the session.
