HOW TO…
- Get into a High Plank position, make sure your hands are right under your shoulders.
- Rotate your torso, starting with your hips, moving off the toes onto the side of your feet.
- Bring the upper arm all the way back down under your body, while keeping your hips in position.
- Reach as far down under your body as possible without losing your balance.
- Hold for 3 seconds.
- Move back into the side plank position, and then move back into the high plank position.
- Now move to the side plank on the other side, and move your other arm under your body (imagine you are trying to reach something behind you).
- Hold for 3 seconds again before moving back into the side plank, followed by the high plank position.
Progression: Do a Thread-Through on either side for 10 times without pausing.
Variation: Too hard? Keep your feet apart, so you have more balance when rotating. Even easier, lower the bottom knee when you rotate, so it supports you from the ground up.
Challenge:
T-Plank on one side.
Thread-through on the same side.
Move to High Plank position.
T-Plank on the other side.
Thread-through on that side.
Back to High Plank position.
This is one set. Work your way up to repeat 5x.
