How to do it
Jumping jacks without the jump. One foot steps out at a time while your arms go up, so you get the cardio without pounding your knees.
- Stand with your feet together and your arms by your sides.
- Step your right foot out to the side as you raise both arms overhead.
- Bring the foot back in as your arms come down.
- Repeat on the left side and keep alternating.
Tips and safety
- Keep a slight bend in your knees.
- Raise your arms only as high as your shoulders allow.
- Speed up a little when it feels easy.
Move within a comfortable range and stop if you feel pain. If you have an injury or health condition, check with a qualified professional first.
