HOW TO…
- Position yourself into High Plank.
- Stabilize your position: (a) head not sinking between your shoulders, (b) holding abs tight, and (c) not letting hips sink closer to the ground.
- Lift your right arm straight to the side, palm down.
- Hold this position for 3-5 secs.
- Return to starting position.
- Switch sides.
Progression: Perform the Lateral Arm Raise Plank (both sides), and then rest in the starting position (High Plank) 5-10 secs before you do the next one.
Variation: Too hard? Perform the Lateral Arm Raise (both sides), and then rest by lowering your knees to the ground while in the starting position (High Plank).
Goal: Lateral Arm Raise 10x (each side) without resting.
Challenge:
Lateral Arm Raise Plank 1x.
High Plank and do a push-up 1x.
This is one set. Work your way up to repeat 12x.
