Landing is a skill
Muscles, not joints, should absorb a landing. Quiet feet are the test.

Rotation under speed, single-leg spring and the full dive-bomber — the most athletic session so far.
Muscles, not joints, should absorb a landing. Quiet feet are the test.
Stiff ankles push the torso forward and shorten the squat. Range at the bottom starts at the floor.
Bodies adapt to what they have already done. Something must go up — reps, range, tempo or load.
Three couplets · two rounds · twelve minutes · a day of return
Squat, jump and turn half a circle, land soft, jump back the other way.
Easier 90° turns · Harder full 360
Hips high, dive under an imaginary bar and press up, then reverse the path.
Easier hands on a chair · Harder slower
Stiff ankle bounces on one leg, swap at 30 s; quiet, quick contacts.
Easier two legs · Harder travel forward
Step back, then drive up and through into a knee lift; stay tall.
Easier no knee drive · Harder hold a jug
From the crab, kick one leg up and touch it with the opposite hand.
Easier crab reach only · Harder faster
Pack high on the back; hinge until the hamstrings pull, back long, stand.
Easier bodyweight · Harder 3-s lowering
Each couplet: 60 s scored → the strength set → 10 s to move on. Done at 12:00.
