1. Start in a neutral standing position with your feet shoulder-width apart.
2. Slightly bend your knees to get into a semi-squat position. Engage your core to stabilize your torso.
3. Taking a step to the right with your right foot, immediately follow by bringing your left foot to meet your right foot, maintaining the semi-squat position. Ensure your feet are parallel and facing forward.
4. Take a series of quick steps to the right, covering a distance based on your workout space. Your feet should not cross at any point; one foot should follow the other in a shuffling motion.
5. Once you've shuffled to the right for the desired distance or number of steps, change direction by leading with your left foot and shuffle to the left, bringing your right foot to meet your left.
6. Continue to shuffle back and forth for the set amount of time, distance, or number of lateral steps per set.
7. Maintain continuous movement and an athletic stance throughout the exercise.
Remember to breathe steadily, keep an upright posture without leaning too far forward or back, and use your arms naturally to help balance and generate speed while shuffling. This exercise is great for warming up before sports or as part of an agility and conditioning routine.
