Walking jacks are a simple modification to traditional jumping jacks with similar benefits but without jumping.
They allow better postural control, are easier on your joints, and are more suitable after an illness than higher-intensity jumping jacks.
Step 1: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and your arms down at your sides.
Step 2: Step to the right with your right foot while lifting your arms over your head.
Step 3: Bring your right foot back to the starting position while lowering your arms back down.
Step 4: Repeat the same pattern with your left foot.
Performing this exercise on both sides is considered one repetition.
Try to perform three sets of 30 repetitions or do this exercise for two to three minutes. |
