C-Skip

Calves · Glutes · Shoulders · Bodyweight

How to do it

  1. Stand tall and begin a rhythmic skip, swinging the opposite arm as you move forward.
  2. Drive one thigh up to about hip height with the ankle dorsiflexed, as in an A-Skip.
  3. From the top, cycle the lower leg so the heel pulls under the hip in a paw-back, then strike the ground under the body.
  4. Do not sweep the foot out in front as in a B-Skip; keep the recovery tight and under the hip.
  5. Stay tall through the torso and alternate legs for the set time.
