How to do it

  1. 01

    Stand to the side of a box with your inside foot on top of it, close to the edge.

  2. 02

    Begin by swinging the arms upward as you push through the top leg, jumping upward as high as possible. Attempt to drive the opposite knee upward.

  3. 03

    Land in the same position that you started, using your inside leg to decelerate the impact.

In the app

Single-Leg Stride Jump appears when you own the kit it needs and the day's window has room for it. Its minutes come from Rule 2 (Sessions are built to fit, never guaranteed, graded product): the window sets how long it runs, never the other way round.

If a machine is taken the engine swaps a same-pattern movement and says why.

If you don't have the kit it needs

Same movement pattern, same primary muscles — swap by what you have.
