Standing Long Jump

Point: To measure leg force and power

Detailed plan of procedure:

1. Position the feet apart and lying in the same direction with the toes just behind the front edge of the take-off board, or line.

2. Before jumping, swing the arms on the back once only and bend the knees. Perform the jump extending the knees and swinging the arms leading to the front and in the direction from lower to higher at the same time.

3. Once the top of the jump is reached, begin to flex the knees, keeping the arms leading to the front.

4. Land with the feet lying in the same direction, with bent knees, and with trunk and arms extended leading to the front.

5. The jump should be made on both feet.
