Merry, Merry!: Side Plank



December 3




Now’s the time to commit,

And your core will benefit!




Side Plank

Start
1. Lie on side with feet and legs on top of each other, forearm on ground and elbow under shoulder.
Movement
1. Draw-in belly button and squeeze butt muscles.
2. Lift hips and legs off ground until body forms straight line from head to toe, resting on forearm and feet.
3. Hold for five seconds.

4. Dip up and down five times on each side.



A few words about commit and benefit…. the more you commit, the bigger the benefit.  When we did the 12 days, the exercises were cumulative.  This year, you have a choice.  You can just do the exercise of the day; or, you can add today’s exercise to the previous days’ exercises.  Whatever you decide, your core will benefit!



Merry, merry!
