There are MANY benefits ✅
Side stepping is something that most people do not do very often. Everything in our lives involves primarily moving in a forwards direction ➡️
My grandmother in law is in town and at 87, she’s out adventuring with us. She has a history of two knee replacements and exercises regularly 👏🏼
Moving sideways can help:
✨ use important muscles in the hip that help support both the hip and knee
✨ challenge balance
✨ challenge hip mobility
✨ simple to do in daily life
A good place to start for most is simply attempting sideways stepping for 8-10 repetitions to see how it feels. Then continue to increase repetitions as you feel more confident ✅
⚠️ Use support as needed to avoid loss of balance, balance and/or compensations ⚠️
