How to Do Jumping-jacks Exercise
The jumping-jack exercise, also called star jumps, and the side-straddle hop, should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately stop star jumps.
