4. Continue alternating legs until the set is complete.

PROPER FORM AND BREATHING PATTERN

Keep your back straight, your chest open, and face forward. Maintain your core engaged and keep the movement smooth and fast. As soon as one foot touches the floor, repeat the move with the opposite leg. Keep your knee straight and exhale as you kick.

SETS AND REPS

Start with a 30 sec set and kick as high as you can. If you have enough space you can also do the walking high kicks and add the walking forward movement to this exercise. If you want to change it up just kick your leg to the side, instead of to the front, and work your inner thighs at the same time.
