360 Degree Plank Workout

One way that I am always able to get rid of the blues that I talked about in yesterday’s post is a good, sweaty workout. This morning Lauren delivered just the type workout I needed before this weekend’s half: low weight, high repetition, lots of hip flexor work, and some killer ab series.

Are we done yet?

While I was holding my third plank of the day, I came up with this fun ab series to get your heart and abs excited on this Tuesday.

360° Plank Workout

1 min forearm plank

1 min right side plank

1 min left side plank

1 min bridge or inverted plank

Beginners: Do your best to hold each move as long as possible. 

Intermediate: Hold each for 1 minute and repeat 2 times through.

Advanced: Hold each for 1 minute and repeat 3 times through. 

Hope you have a wonderful Tuesday!

    Seriously…how the heck did you do that? Are you suspended from something. I just did the plank circuit and the side plank are TOUGH! I’m going to try and do this once a day. Thanks for posting this!

      Haha Kelly! My legs were in a TRX band which made the plank harder since it moves back and forth and requires my core to stabilize it.
