Instructions
Instructions for High Knee Run:
1. Start by standing up straight with your feet hip-width apart.
2. Begin jogging in place, lifting your knees as high as possible with each step. Aim to lift your knees to hip level but keep it within a comfortable range for your flexibility.
3. Pump your arms in sync with your legs to maintain balance and to increase the intensity of the workout.
4. Keep your core engaged throughout the exercise to stabilize your body and support your spine.
5. Look straight ahead and keep your body upright. Avoid leaning forward or backward.
6. As you get comfortable with the movement, increase your speed gradually for a more intense workout.
7. Continue the high knees for a set amount of time or for a specific number of repetitions per leg.
Remember to breathe regularly throughout the exercise, and if you are a beginner, start at a slower pace and gradually build up your speed and coordination as you become more comfortable with the movement. It's also important to wear appropriate shoes to support your feet and to perform the exercise on an even surface to prevent injuries.
