Side steps
A simple lateral movement to start a session.
How to do it
- Stand with feet close together and knees relaxed.
- Step one foot to the side and bring the other foot toward it.
- Repeat in the opposite direction.
Form check
Keep feet from crossing and leave yourself enough space.
Make it easier
Use shorter steps beside a fixed support.
Move within a comfortable range and keep breathing. Stop if a movement causes pain or you feel unwell. Ask a qualified trainer for help with unfamiliar equipment.
