Take care with: knees, hips, ankles
If you have trouble with your knees or hips or ankles, check with a doctor or physio first. In the app we automatically swap this exercise for a gentler one when you report it.
Skater hop
How to
- 1
Stand on one leg with a soft knee and lean your torso slightly forward.
- 2
Push off to the side and land on your other foot, like a speed skater.
- 3
Land softly with your knee over your toes and sweep your free leg behind you.
- 4
Hop side to side smoothly, swinging your arms naturally.
Tips
Gentler version: take a wide step to the side instead of hopping.
