Aerobic Step Step Up High Tips

  1. Start with a low step height to build confidence and gradually increase as you get stronger.
  2. Position your feet hip-width apart on the step, ensuring your entire foot is in contact with the surface.
  3. Engage your quads by pushing through your heels as you step up, focusing on the front of your thighs.
  4. Maintain a tall posture throughout the exercise, keeping your core engaged and shoulders relaxed.
  5. Step up and down at a controlled pace, avoiding any sudden movements to prevent injury and maximize muscle engagement.
  6. Add variety by incorporating different arm movements, such as bicep curls or shoulder presses, to challenge your upper body as well.
  7. Remember to breathe steadily and deeply throughout the exercise, inhaling as you step up and exhaling as you step down.
