22 Oct Walking Jacks

Walking Jacks… are my go-to exercise for cardio.

Why?

Well, if you’re a busy professional, then you already know what’s most important in your fitness program:

Simplicity.

Simplicity yields efficiency.

Simplicity yields action.

Simplicity yields results.

Walking jacks are the movement I incorporate most into clients’ programs… because they’re simple.

You’re probably already familiar with the movement, there’s no complex biomechanics for you to learn, and — most importantly — they get the job done.

Alright. Let’s do it.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Starting Position: Stand with your feet together and your arms down at your sides.

Step 1: Without jumping, step your feet away from each other, while also raising your arms up overhead. You should end with your feet out wide and your hands together overhead.

Step 2: Step your feet back together again as you bring your feet together and arms down to your sides. You should end in the starting position.

Remember — like every P.A.U.L. exercise, you will go as fast or as slow as you need to. The only rule is that you must keep moving for 30 seconds.

That’s all for today, my friend.

Go jump some jacks.
