Let’s have a productive day together!!☺️
Instructions:
1) Plank to downward dog tap:
- Start in a high plank with your wrists under your shoulders and your feet hip-width apart.
- Push your hips up and back to move into a Downward Dog with your heels reaching toward the floor.
- Keep your core tight and shift your weight forward to come back into a high plank.
- Continue for 1 minute.
2) Bicycle crunch:
- Lie faceup with your legs in tabletop position (knees bent 90 degrees and stacked over your hips).
- Place your hands behind your head, elbows bent and pointing out to the sides.
- Use your abs to curl your shoulders off the floor. This is the starting position.
- Twist to bring your right elbow to your left knee, while simultaneously straightening your right leg.
- Then, twist to bring your left elbow to your right knee, simultaneously straightening your left leg.
- Continue alternating sides for 1 minute.
3) Forearm side plank with twist:
- Start in a forearm side plank by propping your body up on your left forearm, with your elbow stacked underneath your shoulder and your hand in front of your body.
- Extend your legs and stack your right foot on top of your left, and then squeeze your abs and glutes to lift your hips off the floor.
- Place your right arm behind your head, with your elbow bent and pointing up toward the ceiling. This is the starting position.
- Rotate your torso toward the floor, bringing your right elbow to meet your left hand. Don't let your hips drop—the movement should just come from your core.
- Then, reverse the movement to return to the starting position.
4) Lateral plank walk:
- Start in a high plank position with your palms flat on the floor, hands shoulder-width apart, shoulders stacked directly above your wrists, legs extended behind you, and your core and glutes engaged.
- Take a step to the right starting with your right hand and right foot and following with your left hand and foot, maintaining a plank position as you move.
- This is 1 rep.
- Do a set amount of reps in one direction, and then repeat the same amount moving in the opposite direction.
- Continue for 1 minute.
