In-Place Walking Knee Raise

Walking Knee Raise on Spot

Positioning:
1. Stand tall with your feet hip-width apart.
2. Engage your core and keep your back straight.
3. Place your hands in front of your chest with elbows bent at a 90-degree angle, or keep them relaxed at your sides.

Movement:
1. Begin by lifting your right knee toward your chest while simultaneously raising your left arm.
2. Ensure that your knee is raised high and your foot is flexed.
3. Lower your right leg back down and switch sides, lifting your left knee and raising your right arm.
4. Continue alternating sides in a fluid motion as if you are walking in place.
5. Focus on maintaining good posture throughout the exercise, keeping your shoulders back and down.
6. Aim for a steady pace, starting with 30 seconds to 1 minute of walking knee raises, gradually increasing duration as you get comfortable.

Tips:
- Keep your abdominal muscles engaged for stability.
- Avoid leaning back or forward; your body should remain upright.
- If you're new to this exercise, start slow and gradually increase speed as you build strength and coordination.
