How to do a jumping jack
- Stand tall with feet together and arms by your sides.
- Bend your knees slightly and jump, spreading your feet wider than shoulder-width.
- Simultaneously raise your arms out and up overhead.
- Jump again, bringing your feet back together and lowering your arms to your sides.
- Repeat the movement at a steady, controlled pace.
Form tips
- Land softly on the balls of your feet to absorb impact.
- Keep your core engaged and maintain an upright posture throughout.
- Coordinate arm and leg movements for a smooth rhythm.
- Breathe steadily and avoid locking your knees on landing.
