Alternating Chair Seated Foot-Tap

1. Positioning:

   • Sit on the edge of a sturdy chair with your feet flat on the floor.

   • Keep your back straight and shoulders relaxed.

   • Place your hands behind your head or cross them over your chest, whichever feels more comfortable.

2. Starting Movement:

   • Lift your right knee towards your chest while keeping your foot flexed.

   • Tap your right foot with your left hand as you bring your knee up.

3. Alternating Sides:

   • Return your right foot to the floor and lower your right knee.

   • Now, lift your left knee towards your chest while tapping your left foot with your right hand.

   • Make sure to maintain a steady and controlled movement.

4. Repetition:

   • Continue alternating between tapping your right foot and left foot for 10-15 repetitions on each side.

   • Focus on engaging your core and maintaining your posture throughout the exercise.

5. Breathing:

   • Inhale through your nose as you lift your knee and tap your foot.

   • Exhale through your mouth as you lower your foot back down.

6. Cool Down:

   • Once you complete your repetitions, take a moment to sit comfortably with your feet flat on the ground.

   • Breathe deeply and relax your shoulders.

Tips:

• Start slowly to familiarize yourself with the movement.

• If you’re struggling with balance, place your hands on the sides of the chair for support.

• As you progress, you can increase the speed of your taps for a more challenging workout.
