How to do it
- Lie on your side with your elbow under your shoulder and your legs stacked.
- Lift your hips into a side plank with your body in a straight line.
- Lower your hips until they almost touch the floor.
- Lift them back up past straight, then finish all reps before switching sides.
Work one side, then switch. Timed sets run once per side.
Form tips
- Keep your hips stacked rather than rolling forward.
- Bend your bottom knee to the floor for an easier version.
