Exercise Description

Plyometric Side Plank is a good variety of standard planks that strengthen your full body – primarily your core. This is also a good move to increase hip mobility and stability throughout the lower back.

Exercise Instructions

  • Step 1

    Lie on your side with your legs completely straight. Support your body on your elbow and forearm so that your body forms a straight line from your shoulders to your ankles.
  • Step 2

    Lift your top leg and move it back and forth, making sure your hips don't sag. Return to starting position.
