Side Plank
On one forearm, keep the body in a straight line; hold, then switch sides.
How to do it
Setup
On one forearm, elbow under the shoulder, feet stacked; hips lifted into one straight line.
Steps
- Hold the line from head to heels.
- Keep the hips stacked – no rolling forward or back.
- Switch sides without dropping through the middle.
Common mistakes
Hips sagging toward the floor: push the floor away, lift the waist. Rolling the chest toward the ceiling: shoulders stacked. Head hanging: neck in line.
Breathing
Steady throughout; never held.
