How to do it

  1. Stand with your feet hip-width apart, your arms relaxed by your sides, and your core engaged. Maintain an upright posture.

  2. Begin running by taking quick, powerful strides, lifting your knees higher than jogging.

  3. Swing your arms naturally with each step, keeping them bent at a 90-degree angle.

  4. Maintain a steady, comfortable pace and continue running for the desired duration or distance.

Form tips

  • Stay hydrated and take breaks, especially during longer runs.

  • Breathe steadily and rhythmically to maintain oxygen flow during the run.

  • Focus on maintaining a relaxed posture and avoid tensing your shoulders.
