Our standard 1-Leg Linear Hurdle Hop Progression that we use, the same progression I was taught in my time at Mike Boyle Strength and Conditioning.

Just like our Hurdle Jump and 1-Leg Medial/Lateral Hurdle Hop Progressions, our goal is to simply learn how the jump and land in proper positions, and then progressing from simple to more complex by adding gravity and/or more of a true plyometric.

1. 1-Leg Linear Box Hop 👉 Learn to land properly without gravity
2. 1-Leg Linear Hurdle Hop & Stick 👉 Learn to land properly with adding gravity and the added deceleration component into the equation
3. 1-Leg Linear Hurdle Hop with Mini-Bounce 👉 Add a small plyometric though the mini bounce to be more reactive to the ground
4. Continuous 1-Leg Linear Hurdle Hop 👉 Pure plyometric/power development
   Well typically spend 3 weeks in each progression until we move on to the next ➡️ but we won’t move on to the next progression if the athlete isn’t ready.

Programming Advice: we stay at 3 sets of 5 hops each in all 4 phases. Since each phase adds a level of intensity, we keep the volume the same throughout the progression.
