How to do the Single Leg Butt Kick

  1. 1

    Begin by standing on one leg, with the bent knee raised. This will be your start position.

  2. 2

    Using a countermovement jump, take off upward by extending the hip, knee, and ankle of the grounded leg.

  3. 3

    Immediately flex the knee and attempt to touch your butt with the heel of your jumping leg.

  4. 4

    Return the leg to a partially bent position underneath the hips and land. Your opposite leg should stay in relatively the same position throughout the drill.
