Lateral Jumps:

Players will jump from side to side, jumping as high as the can while also tucking their knees up.

Once the player lands, they will want to jump again as quick as possible.

Lunge Jumps:

The player will go into a lunge position, from that position they are trying to jump straight up in the air.

In the air, the player will switch the foot position, so that when they land they will be in a lunge position.
