The Ladder Lateral Skier is a dynamic workout to enhance agility, stability, and endurance. Featuring a side-to-side jump motion, it tones legs and core while boosting the heart rate for cardiovascular fitness and fat loss.
Begin by standing at the edge of an agility ladder, or if a ladder isn't available, visually designate a row of squares in front of you.
2
Start with your feet together outside of your imaginary first square.
3
Jump both feet simultaneously to the left side of the first square.
4
Immediately jump over to the right side of the square, aiming to land in the center of your designated ladder space.
5
Continue this side-to-side leaping motion for a designated length of ladder, then turn around and perform the same action on the way back. Remember to keep your body pointing forward and avoid twisting your hips.
