knee lifts

Marching in place

Knee lifts are an exercise where you raise your knees alternately toward your chest while standing, often performed rapidly for cardio or as a warm-up: Start with thirty seconds of knee lifts to get your heart rate up.

High knee lifts emphasize bringing the thigh parallel to the ground or higher.
