Aerobic Step Jumps Tips

Start with a low step height to build confidence and avoid strain on your quads.
Engage your quads by pushing through your heels and squeezing your thigh muscles.
Keep your knees in line with your toes to prevent any unnecessary stress on your quads.
Focus on maintaining a steady pace, rather than rushing through the exercise.
As you jump onto the step, land softly to reduce impact on your quads and protect your joints.
Use your arms to help propel yourself upward, giving your quads an extra boost.
Remember to breathe throughout the exercise, inhaling on the way up and exhaling on the way down.
