How to do it
Step to the side while raising your arms up or to shoulder height.
Bring your feet together, lower your arms and switch sides.
About Arm Lift Side Step
Arm Lift Side Step steps outward with an upward arm raise, then brings the feet together as the arms lower. Its clear open-and-return pattern helps you identify when each phase finishes.
What to focus on
- Place the stepping foot gently before transferring weight.
- Finish the lowering before starting the opposite side.
Make the movement smaller
Use a short step and raise the arms only to a comfortable low height.
A mistake to watch for
Bringing the feet together too quickly to control the return. Pause in the starting stance.
Practice time and pacing
The app assigns 30 seconds to Arm Lift Side Step. Use that as a time block, with pauses whenever you need them. Move at the demonstration’s controlled pace; the timer is not a repetition target. Watch the full movement once before following along.
Where you will practice it
It first appears on day 3 of the Standing Easy 30-Day Plan. The day count below follows the extended version; shorter days can use fewer movements.
