INTERMEDIATE
Inching Elbow Plank
Inching Elbow Plank works your abdominal muscles more while also providing stability throughout your shoulder and hip region.
Instructions
- Take a plank position with your elbows directly under your shoulders, forearms on the floor, and feet hip-width apart.
- Prepare your abs and lift your hips in the air, taking small, alternating steps forward with your feet, keeping your elbows still. Then slowly move your legs back to return to the starting position.
Tips
- Try to create a triangle whose base will be your arms and legs.
- In the plank position, your body should form a straight line from your shoulders to your ankles.
- Don't let your torso rotate while moving your legs.
