How to do it
Swing your arms naturally in opposition to drive each sideways shuffle step.
- 1
Begin by standing with your feet together.
- 2
Shuffle to the side by taking a quick step with your lead foot and then bringing your trailing foot to meet it.
- 3
After shuffling to the side, lift the outside leg straight out to the side.
- 4
Shuffle back in the opposite direction and lift the other leg.
- 5
Continue alternating shuffles and leg lifts for the desired number of repetitions or time.
Expert tip
Keep your torso upright and core engaged to maintain balance during the leg lifts. Ensure your shuffles are quick and light to keep your heart rate up.
