1. Begin in a standing position with your feet hip-width apart and arms at your sides.
2. Shift your weight to one leg while bringing the opposite knee up toward your chest as quickly as possible, driving it with your arms.
3. As you drive one knee up, swing the opposite arm forward to maintain momentum and balance.
4. Quickly lower the raised leg back to the starting position and simultaneously drive the other knee up, mimicking a running motion while remaining on the spot.
5. Continue alternating knee drives rapidly, ensuring that you're bringing your knees up high each time and maintaining a rhythmic arm motion.
6. Focus on engaging your core throughout the exercise and keep your upper body as upright as possible, avoiding excessive forward lean.
7. Perform the double knee drives for the desired number of repetitions or for a specific time duration.
