How to perform it

- Fully extend your entire body, reaching overhead as far as possible. As you land, absorb your impact through the legs.

Make it count toward your goal
Random sets rarely move the needle. In NYUS, the Rocket Jump slots into a plan built for your goal — sets, reps and progression auto-suggested, logged in two taps, and folded into a weekly review that adapts what comes next.
