- Step onto the pedals with feet centered and hip-width; grasp the handles lightly and stand tall with core braced.
- Begin the lateral pedaling motion smoothly, driving through the whole foot.
- Keep knees tracking over toes and hips square; avoid letting knees cave inward.
- Maintain a steady cadence and relaxed shoulders; do not lean on the console.
- Breathe rhythmically and increase resistance or cadence to reach the desired intensity.
- Finish by gradually reducing resistance and cadence for 2–3 minutes to cool down.
- Stop the pedals completely before stepping off safely.
