Instructions
1. Start in a standing position with your feet together and arms by your side. This is the initial position.
2. In a single motion, jump up and split your legs so that one foot shoots forward and the other goes back, landing in a lunge position with both knees bent at about 90 degrees.
3. Simultaneously, while you're jumping your legs apart, raise your arms above your head until your hands nearly touch.
4. Quickly jump up again, bringing your feet back together and lowering your arms to return to the starting position.
5. Repeat the jump and split your legs in the opposite direction, with the other foot lunging forward.
6. Continue alternating the forward leg with each jump, maintaining a rhythmic motion and an upright posture. Make sure to land softly to absorb the impact and protect your joints.
For beginners, it might be easier to start slow, focusing on form and coordination, and gradually increase speed and intensity as you become more comfortable with the movement.
