    How to: Side to Side Box Shuffle

    1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart.
    2. Shift your weight to one side and quickly shuffle to the other side.
    3. Keep your movements light and quick, maintaining a low center of gravity.
    4. Repeat the shuffle back and forth for desired duration.

    Common Mistakes

    • Leaning too far forward, which can cause loss of balance.
    • Not using enough foot movement, leading to less effectiveness.
    • Overextending the reach, risking coordination.

    Modifications

    • Perform the shuffle at a slower pace or with shorter distances.
    • Stay on flat ground to minimize impact.

    Tips

    • Keep your knees slightly bent during the shuffle.
    • Engage your core to maintain stability and balance.
    • Use a quick and light footwork for better agility.
