Abs

Plank Up-Down

Starting position

  • Forearm plank, elbows under the shoulders.
  • Feet slightly wider than hip-width, body in a line.

Execution

  • Place one hand, then the other, and push up into the push-up position.
  • Lower one forearm, then the other; switch the leading hand.
  • The hips stay still.

Common mistakes

  • Hips rocking side to side.
  • Glutes up.
  • Too fast, the line gets lost.
