Side elbow plank hold

Muscles worked

You need

How to do it

1. Lie on your side and prop yourself up on your forearm, elbow directly under your shoulder.
2. Stack your feet, lift your hips off the floor until your body forms a straight line from head to heels, and rest your top hand on your hip.
3. Then hold that line.
4. The work happens quietly along your bottom side - obliques and hip fighting to keep you from sagging - and the only thing that moves should be your breath.
5. Complete the hold, then switch sides.
