Elbow Side Plank

The side plank is a lateral core exercise that will prevent you from tipping over. If this move is too complicated, start with a side bridge.

  • Come into an elbow plank position and roll to your right side, allowing your feet to roll, too, so you're balancing on the outside of your right foot, stacking your left foot on your right.
  • Place your left hand gently behind your head. Press your left inner thigh up into your right inner thigh; this helps stabilise you even more.
