Why it matters for golf
Jumping lunges add speed to a single leg pattern, training the legs to produce and absorb force one side at a time. That mix of power and single leg control shows up in how well a golfer uses the ground.
Coaching cues
- Drop into a solid lunge.
- Explode up and switch legs in the air.
- Land soft in the next lunge.
- Chest tall the whole time.
Common faults
- Shallow landings with a wobbly front knee.
- Torso pitching forward as fatigue sets in.
