Fitness Challenge Day 13

The Exercise:  Planks and Side Planks

Here we go again!  Time for more planks.  We did these on Day 2 of the Challenge.  Today we will add some side planks in to further work the core.

How to Do it:

See Day 2 of the Challenge for The Plank.

Side Planks:  Just like planks, side planks can be done a few different ways depending on your fitness level.  Remember to keep your head and hips in line with your spine.  Work those obliques.





The Challenge:

Start with a plank, hold for as long as you can, rest, and then move into a side plank on one side, holding for as long as you can, rest, and side plank on the opposite side.

Repeat at least once, twice if you are motivated for a total of 3 sets of planks and side planks..
