Step Up - Parkour Training and Conditioning Exercise

The step up is a useful leg exercise to improve take off power in a running jump. Many jumps in parkour require a one footed takeoff, and more specifically, many require a step up onto and takeoff from a higher surface. In addition, the step up builds overall leg strength for sprinting and jumping.

Do I only train the leg that I usually take off with or what?

[DemonDrills]

@Primape92 yes, always train both sides equally.

one question:

when i jump, like in this video, but not while training, to jump further should i swing up my stronger leg and jump with the weakest or viceversa?

[DemonDrills]

@pivotiano train both legs equally.
