Side Plank

1. Lie on your side with your legs straight and your body in a straight line (shoulders and hips stacked one on top of the other; don’t lean forward or backwards).
2. Prop your body up so your hips are off the floor. Rest your weight on the elbow on that’s touching the floor.
3. Only your forearm and feet should touch the floor.
4. Do not let the hips sag—this is the challenging part of this move. As you get tired, you’ll want to drop the hips, but focus on keeping them stationary.
