1. Start by sitting on the edge of a sturdy chair with your back straight and hands on your thighs or by your sides for balance.
2. Engage your core muscles to stabilize your upper body.
3. Begin by lifting your right knee towards your chest while keeping your left foot lightly touching the floor or slightly suspended above it.
4. Quickly switch legs, bringing the left knee up and extending the right leg down to create a running motion.
5. Continue to alternate knees as if you are running in place, maintaining the core engagement and upright posture.
6. Keep the movements controlled and focus on breathing rhythmically throughout the exercise.
7. Proceed with the exercise for the desired amount of time or repetitions, ensuring a consistent pace and form.
Remember to perform this exercise at your own pace, and if you have balance issues, you can use your hands to help stabilize yourself on the chair. Always consider your fitness level and any health concerns before beginning any new exercise routine.
