Exercise Directory: Modified/Knee Side Plank [Fingers on the Floor]

The side plank works your core/midsection ... but focuses more on your obliques.

STEP #1: Start by lying on your side ... stacking your knees one on top of the other.

STEP #2: Place your elbow right below your shoulder ... and lift up your body forming a straight line from your shoulder to your knees.

STEP #3: Place the fingertips [of the hand that is closest to the ceiling] on the floor ... to help maintain your balance while you are holding the position.

STEP #4: Hold that position for as long as you can maintain proper form. Your body will begin to shake as it tires from holding the position. If you feel like your body is giving out, lower your body back to the floor.

STEP #5: Rest.

​STEP #6: Repeat.

NOTE: This exercise will help build sculpted shoulders as your are building a trimmer and stronger midsection.
