Exercise Description:
The Cross hop hold is a body weight exercise that targets the muscles of the hamstrings, thighs, and glute. It is performed by standing on one leg then pushing off the ground to "hop" and land with the other leg. Using these muscle to generate the force need to push off, while at the same time absorb the force of the landing.
Be sure to have knees bent when landing and pushing off. This is how the body is able to generate and obsorb force without injuring ones self. This movement will help build stablility and cordination. It will also help with the begeining stages of rehab for most tendon injuries suffered in the lower leg.

The Nordic curl can be a challenging exercise, so it is important to start with a light weight or no weight at all until you have mastered the proper form. As you become more comfortable with the movement, you can increase the difficulty by adding weight or by performing the exercise to increase the distance of the jump/ hop.
