Standing Marches

This is a core-strengthening exercise that helps shore up the muscles that support your spine.

How to do it:

Stand tall with your feet hip-width apart.

If needed, hold on to the wall or a sturdy piece of furniture for balance. As you get stronger, perform the move without holding on to anything.

From here, lift one knee until your thigh is parallel to the floor (or as close to parallel as you can go) while keep your torso straight and avoiding any leaning.

Pause, then slowly return your foot to the floor.

Perform 20 marches, alternating between legs with each march.
