The Fast Skipping primarily works the quadriceps, with the abductors, adductors, calves, glutes and hamstrings supporting the movement. It is a plyometrics movement that needs no equipment.
1 / 2How to
Movement instructions
Start in a relaxed position with one leg slightly forward. This will be your starting position.
Skip by executing a step-hop pattern of right-right-step to left-left-step, and so on, alternating back and forth.
Perform fast skips by maintaining close contact with the ground and reduce air time, moving as quickly as possible.
Technique guidance

General guidance based on the exercise and equipment. It is not personal coaching or medical advice.
Your progress
Keep the same exercise variation, range of motion and recording method when comparing Fast Skipping sessions.
Repetitions and completed sets.
Example: 10, 9 and 8 completed reps. Keep each set separate instead of recording only the total.
Compare repetitions using the same variation and range. A different variation needs its own history; extra reps are not directly comparable if the movement changes.
