WMOW: Walk the Plank

Hi friends! How are you?? Hope you’re having a great morning so far 🙂

This week’s Workout Move of the Week is one of my all-time faves (in a love/hate way, of course): the plank!

(I was looking for a picture of a pirate ship plank, and found that, which was awesome haha)

Some tips before you get yo plank on:

-Make sure alignment is bueno. You want a straight line from your shoulders all the way to your ankles and keep that booty in line- not dropping or up in the air.

-Always check with a doc before starting a new fitness or nutrition program

-If it hurts, don’t do it!
Hope you enjoy the goofy video and learn at least one new plank variation- there are a ton out there 🙂

 

As always, Bella steals the show 😉
