Chair Seated Front-Leg Lift Under-Knee Tap

Strengthen your core and legs with this seated exercise! Lift, tap, and repeat for a simple yet effective workout.

Instructions

  1. Starting Position:

    • Sit upright on a sturdy chair with your back straight and shoulders relaxed.

    • Keep your feet flat on the floor, hip-width apart.

  2. Hand Position:

    • Extend your arms straight out in front of you at shoulder height, parallel to the ground. Hold your palms facing down.

  3. Leg Lift:

    • Slowly lift your right leg, keeping it straight, until it is parallel to the floor. Engage your core muscles to maintain balance.

  4. Knee Tap:

    • While your right leg is lifted, bend your right knee and bring it towards your chest.

    • Tap your knee lightly with your hands.

  5. Return to Starting Position:

    • Straighten your leg back to the initial position while maintaining the arm position.

    • Keep your movements controlled to avoid using momentum.

  7. Cool Down:

    • After finishing both legs, sit back comfortably and take a few deep breaths to relax.

Tips:

  • Keep your movements slow and controlled.

  • Ensure your back remains straight throughout the exercise.

  • If you feel any strain on your back, adjust your posture or take a short break.
