Side Plank

  1. Start by lying on your side with your legs extended and stacked on top of each other.
  2. Place your forearm on the ground directly below your shoulder, with your elbow bent at a 90-degree angle.
  3. Engage your core muscles and lift your hips off the ground, creating a straight line from your head to your feet.
  4. Keep your body in a straight line and avoid sagging or letting your hips drop.
  5. Hold the position for the desired amount of time.
  6. Repeat on the other side.
