High Knee Walk
Walk forward, driving each knee up to hip height with the opposite arm; the high knees slowed to a walk.
How to do it
Setup
Standing tall, a clear lane ahead, arms bent.
Steps
- Step forward and drive the back knee up to hip height.
- Swing the opposite arm forward with it.
- Set the foot down under the hips and lift the other knee.
Common mistakes
Rounding forward to meet the knee: the knee comes up to a tall chest. Knees stopping low: hip height every step. Rushing the steps: slow and tall is the point.
Breathing
Steady with the steps.
