Cinderella Sweeps
Starting Posture
Stand with your feet hip-width apart, knees slightly bent, and arms relaxed by your sides.
How to Exercise
Begin by stepping your left foot behind your right foot while sweeping your arms up and across your body. As you do this, twist your torso to the right. Return to the starting position and repeat on the other side. Continue alternating sides for a set amount of time or repetitions.
Breath Control
Inhale as you step your foot behind and sweep your arms up, and exhale as you return to the starting position.
Common errors
Swinging your arms too forcefully can lead to loss of balance. Make sure to control the movement and focus on engaging the correct muscles.
Weights
You can add hand weights to increase the intensity of the exercise.
Grips
No specific grips required for this exercise.
Variations
To make the exercise more challenging, you can increase the speed of the sweeps or add a squat at the end of each sweep before returning to the starting position.
