Side Plank with Hip Raise
Muscles worked: Abdominals, Hips, Obliques
Equipment needed: None
Difficulty: 6/10 – Fairly Hard
How to
1. Get down on the floor and lay on one side.
2. Lift your body off the floor using the forearm closest to the floor as support. Place one foot on top of the other (if you are struggling to hold your body, place both feet on the floor to the side of each other). Place your free hand on the back of your head. Your body and legs should be straight with only a forearm and your feet touching the floor.
3. Lower your hips towards the floor slowly, and return to the starting position.
Tips
Ensure that your supporting forearm stays in line with your shoulder as poor form can cause injury to the shoulder.
