Jumping Jacks –
Tips and Precautions
- Everything should be in a controlled motion. Do not jerk either your legs or your hands.
- There should be no bends in your elbows or knees during this exercise.
- For some people, initially it may not be possible to make the clap above your head. You can make it simpler for yourselves by stopping hands’ movement when they are parallel to the ground.
- Otherwise, you can also increase the intensity of your jumping jacks by doing a half burpee every time you return to the starting position.
