The pogo jump is a plyometric exercise that targets lower limb stiffness, reactive strength, and tendon conditioning—especially through the calves and Achilles. It’s commonly used in running and return-to-sport programs to enhance spring, coordination, and load tolerance. This drill is ideal for athletes recovering from lower limb injuries or anyone looking to improve dynamic lower body performance.
