Chop Knee Raise

Starting Position:

• Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart.

• Engage your core and keep your back straight.

• Extend your arms straight out in front of you, elbows slightly bent.

Movement:

• Begin by rotating your torso to one side while simultaneously lifting your opposite knee towards your chest.

• As you lift your knee, bring your arms down towards the knee (like a chopping motion).

• Ensure to maintain balance as you shift your weight.

Return to Starting Position:

• Lower your leg back to the ground and return your arms to the starting position.

Repetition:

• Repeat the movement for a set number of repetitions (e.g., 10-15) on one side before switching to the other side.

Tips:

• Focus on controlling your movements rather than rushing through them.

• Keep your core engaged throughout the exercise for stability.

• Ensure that you’re landing softly on your feet to reduce impact on your joints.
