Instructions
1. Start by standing straight with your feet shoulder-width apart and your arms extended out to the sides at shoulder height.
2. Perform a side step to the right by stepping out with your right foot and bringing your left foot to meet it, maintaining your arms outstretched.
3. Once your feet are together, quickly step out to the left with your left foot, bringing the right foot to meet it, all while keeping your arms raised to the sides.
4. Continue this side-to-side stepping motion for a designated number of repetitions or time, focusing on maintaining a quick pace and keeping the arms lifted at shoulder height throughout the movement.
During this exercise, make sure to keep your back straight and core engaged. This will not only help work your shoulder muscles with the arm movement but also engage your core, hips, and legs as you move side to side. It’s a functional move that can improve your lateral agility and strength in the supporting leg muscles.
