The Side Plank Print E-mail
Friday, 04 November 2005
 

The side plank balances out the core stability afforded by the front plank with a lateral component.

 

1.) Lie on your side with your forearm on the ground, elbow directly under your shoulder.


2.)  Push up off your elbow and the side of your bottom foot, drawing your belly button towards your spine and contracting your hips to keep your torso straight.

 


3.) Hold for allotted time.

4.) As this becomes easy, a variation is to lift your lower leg, supporting on your upper leg alone.

Push ups: Diamond, Wide, and such are good for arm strength- I'd guess. 
 
As for this workout this was a good one! O.o and slightly difficult.
