Four times on each side. Exercise 2: The player stands in the centre and first jumps with the left foot into ring a of ring row 1, then into b and c, back into b and a, and from there back to the centre. There the player lands on the right foot and continues jumping with the right foot into ring a of ring row 2. The same jumping sequence is performed as in row 1, but with the right foot. From the centre, the player then starts with ring row 3 and the left foot, and finishes with ring row 4 and the right foot. A total of 10 repetitions with the shortest possible ground contact time. The player switches after each round.
