Target Muscles
Instructions
- Start by taking a push-up position with your hands shoulder-width apart. Tighten your abs and tighten your buttocks. Form a straight line from shoulders to legs.
- Shift your weight onto one hand, lifting the other off the floor. Rotate your torso, extending your arm to the side and above your head, pointing your hand toward the ceiling, and look up at your fingertips. Pause, return to the starting position, and switch sides.
Tips
- Do not rotate the arm beyond 90 degrees. This can create an unstable and unbalanced position.
Alternative Exercises
Rolling Side Plank
This plank variation creates greater stability for the shoulders, hips, and spine. Rolling side plank is also a good core strengthening exercise, with great emphasis on obliques.
