Side Step Front Plank

The forearm plank with the feet stepping out to the side and back in one at a time; the quiet, stepped cousin of the plank jack.

How to do it

Setup

On the forearms and toes, feet together, hips level with the shoulders.

Steps

  1. Step one foot out wide to the side.
  2. Step it back in, then step the other foot out.
  3. Keep the hips level and still as the feet move; time it.

Common mistakes

Hips swaying toward the stepping foot: brace so the trunk stays still. Jumping the feet: step them one at a time. Hips piking up to make the step easy: keep the line flat.

Breathing

Steady throughout; never held.
