Stepping jacks are a modified version of jumping jacks, offering a more controlled and less intense exercise option.
Step 1: Stand with your arms by your sides and your feet slightly apart. Step to the right with your right foot while raising your arms outward and over your head, then bring them back to the starting position.
Step 2: Repeat on your left side.
Step 3: This counts as 1 repetition. You can either perform 3 sets of 50 repetitions or, instead, time yourself for 2 to 3 minutes, depending on how your body responds.
These are much easier than they may sound and usually become natural with practice. |
