1. Stand Tall: Begin by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart. Ensure your weight is evenly distributed across both feet. 2. Hands on Hips: Place your hands on your hips or let them hang comfortably by your sides.
Movement:
1. Lift One Knee: Slowly lift your right knee towards your chest while keeping your left foot grounded. 2. Open the Knee: As your knee approaches chest height, open the right knee outward to the side, maintaining a 90-degree angle at your hip. 3. Return to Start: Bring your right knee back to the starting position, lowering it down gently. 4. Switch Sides: Repeat the movement with your left knee, lifting it towards your chest and then opening it outward. 5. Repetition: Continue alternating between your right and left knee for the desired number of repetitions.
Tips:
- Keep your core engaged throughout the exercise to maintain balance. - Move slowly and with control to avoid injury. - Focus on smooth movements and proper form rather than speed.
