How to perform a stomping motion?
The movement is performed by:
- legs (thighs, buttocks, calves)
Starting position:
Stand with your feet slightly wider than hip-width apart. The toes of your shoes pointing slightly outward. Bend your elbows and clasp your hands in front of your chest. Bend your knees slightly and lean your straight torso slightly forward. Tighten your abs.
Movement:
While maintaining your torso's alignment, very quickly lift one foot off the ground, then the other – you'll be stomping, and that's how it's supposed to be. You can keep your hands still, or periodically lower them and raise them again in front of your chest.
Tips:
Tighten your abs firmly. Knees slightly bent.
Note: This exercise increases your heart rate, so it can be considered a cardio exercise.
