The Burpee to Target Jump is a high-intensity hybrid plyometric exercise that blends total-body conditioning with vertical power. It’s a demanding movement that tests strength, endurance, and explosiveness in one fluid sequence ideal for HYROX-style training, CrossFit, or athletic conditioning programs.

To perform, stand tall beneath a target (such as a wall, rig marker, or beam) that challenges your jump reach. Begin by dropping into a standard burpee: hinge at the hips, place your hands on the floor, and jump your feet back into a high plank position. Lower your chest to the ground, then push explosively through your hands to return to the plank. From here, jump your feet forward underneath your body, keeping your hips low and core tight.

Immediately transition into a powerful vertical jump, reaching upward to touch the target overhead. Land softly, absorb the impact through your legs, and descend straight into the next burpee repetition without pause. The continuous flow of ground-to-air movement builds both anaerobic capacity and full-body power.

The Burpee to Target Jump targets the chest, shoulders, triceps, core, quads, glutes, and calves, while improving timing, explosiveness, and work capacity. It’s a total-body test of coordination, rhythm, and endurance.

Common mistakes include losing posture during the jump, failing to land softly, or not extending fully to the target. Cue “land light,” “reach tall,” and “stay tight through the core.”

In Relentless Bravery Fitness, this movement represents absolute commitment the full expression of power, control, and resilience in motion.

Program 3–4 sets of 8–12 reps, or perform for time-based intervals (30–60 seconds) as part of conditioning or competition prep.
