Banded compass jump squat

The banded compass jump squat is an explosive squat variation performed with a band around the thighs just above the knees. This increases muscle activation in the hips and glutes, while the squat targets the quads, hamstrings, and glutes. The landing for each jump is a 90-degree rotation from the starting position. The banded compass jump squat can be performed for low reps as a power-focused exercise, or for higher reps to build muscle in the lower body, challenge conditioning, and burn fat.
