Staggered Leg Side Bridge
The straight-arm side plank with the feet staggered, the top foot in front of the bottom one, for a steadier base; held for time.
How to do it
Setup
Side-on, the bottom hand under the shoulder, legs straight, the top foot planted just in front of the bottom foot.
Steps
- Lift the hips until the body is one straight line.
- Hold and breathe; time it.
- Lower and switch sides.
Common mistakes
Hips sagging toward the floor: lift them back into the line. Hips drifting back behind the feet: push them forward until the body is straight. Shoulder sinking into the support arm: push the floor away.
Breathing
Steady throughout; never held.
