The side plank exercise builds strong obliques and core stability. It helps create a powerful midsection and better balance for everyday movements.
1. Lie on your side with your legs straight and stack your feet on top of each other. 2. Place your bottom elbow directly under your shoulder and press your forearm into the ground. 3. Lift your hips off the ground to create a straight line from your head to your feet for the side plank position. 4. Keep your core tight and hold this side plank position while breathing normally. 5. Lower down slowly and repeat on the other side to complete your side plank workout.
• Keep your body in a straight line during the side plank - don't let your hips sag or pike up. • Press your bottom forearm firmly into the ground and keep your shoulder stacked over your elbow. • Engage your core muscles throughout the entire side plank hold. • Keep your head in a neutral position and breathe steadily while holding the position.
• Letting your hips drop or sag during the side plank, which reduces the exercise's effectiveness. • Placing your elbow too far from your shoulder, creating instability in your side plank form. • Holding your breath instead of breathing normally throughout the hold.
