Hop Heel Clicks - What it Works
Focus: Lowerbody
Type: Metcon
Difficulty: level 4 of 5

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, fists up in a loose guard. Jump straight up and, at the top of the hop, turn your knees out and snap your heels together - click - then let your feet separate again to land shoulder-width apart, knees bending to take the impact. Straight up, click, land soft, and go again: the height of the jump buys you the time to make the click.

Works: calves, quads, glutes, hip adductors

Breathing: Exhale on the jump, inhale on the landing - one breath cycle per hop.

Common Mistakes: Jumping too low and rushing a half-click, landing with the feet still together instead of back at shoulder width, and landing stiff-legged on flat feet.

Make Easier: Skip the click and just hop with the knees turning out, or build your bounce with Hops on the Spot and Half Jacks first.

Make Harder: Jump higher and chain the reps without pause between landings, or move on to Jump Squats or Jump Knee-Tucks.

One of my FAVORITE websites EVER!!! I think this site has elite ball knowledge and it's 100% in my favorites right now.

I love the pictures, the variety, the amount of time it takes to complete a workout and how you can mix and match if you have a lot of energy or only repeat 3 times if you don’t feel like exercising. The website is awesome and I recommend it whenever I talk about fitness with other people. I cannot thank Darebee enough for how much this project has helped me in having a solid exercise routine and how to deal with exercise when tired, injured or when I don’t have much time.

I also love the concept of "exercise of the day". This website is just awesome. I came to know this website around 2025 since than it has been bookmarked in my browser. I request the developers to please launch the mobile app. I would absolutely love to see it's app on the app Store.
