How to do it

  1. Raise one arm in front of you while lifting the same knee.

  2. Gently lower both with control before switching sides.

  3. Coordinate the movement smoothly and feel your arms and legs working together.

About Seated Palm Raise With Leg Lift

Seated Palm Raise With Leg Lift raises an arm and the knee on that same side, then lowers both before switching. The same-side pairing differs from cross-body elbow-and-knee movements.

What to focus on

  • Identify the matching arm and knee before starting.
  • Lower both parts smoothly before changing sides.

Make the movement smaller

Lift the knee slightly and keep the arm low, or rehearse the two parts separately.

A mistake to watch for

Accidentally switching to an opposite-arm pattern and rushing to correct it. Pause and reset the pairing.

Practice time and pacing

The app assigns 30 seconds to Seated Palm Raise With Leg Lift. 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.

Set a firm chair on a nonslip surface and leave room for the arm and leg movements shown. A chair without wheels keeps the setup steady.
