Movement instructions
Set up a row of hurdles or other small barriers, placing them a few feet apart.
Stand in front of the first hurdle with your feet shoulder width apart. This will be your starting position.
Begin by jumping with both feet over the first hurdle, swinging both arms as you jump.
Absorb the impact of landing by bending the knees, rebounding out of the first leap by jumping over the next hurdle. Continue until you have jumped over all of the hurdles.

Your progress
Keep the same other setup, range of motion and recording method when comparing Hurdle Hops 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.
