Standing knee-to-elbow – how to do it right
Standing, lift a knee and bring the opposite elbow to meet it.
This is how Stickfreed, our glowing stick figure, shows you the exercise on your TV – here the start, middle and end position. In the app he turns slowly so you can see everything.
How to do it
- Stand tall, fingertips lightly behind your head.
- Lift a knee and turn the opposite elbow toward it.
- Don’t pull on your head – keep your back long.
- Alternate sides and keep breathing.
How long?
In BLOX: 30 seconds on, 10 seconds rest, three rounds.
If something niggles
Then do Marching in place instead – BLOX swaps it automatically if you mention it at the start. Stop if it hurts; if you have complaints or pre-existing conditions, check with a doctor or physio first.
