How to perform

  1. Begin with easy walking on a clear route or a familiar treadmill.

  2. Ease into a gentle jog with relaxed shoulders and natural arm movement.

  3. Keep steps comfortable and the pace steady enough for your intended effort.

  4. Slow to a walk to finish; alternate walking and jogging when building consistency.

Key cues

  • Keep the upper body relaxed.
  • Look along the route ahead.
  • Build time gradually rather than forcing pace.

Common mistakes

  • Starting much faster than you can sustain.
  • Reaching the foot far ahead with each step.
  • Ignoring fatigue while trying to hold a pace.
