10 Feb Side Plank: How and Why You Should Love it
Posted at 16:57h in Exercise
Tell me. What reaction does your brain conjure up when you read the words:
Side Plank.
Do you think “too hard”?
Do you think “hell no”?
Do you think “ehhhh, it hurts my back”?
I used to wonder what determines whether someone will love or hate an exercise.
It’s interesting.
It isn’t difficulty that is the determining factor.
People don’t love exercises that they find easy and they don’t hate exercises that they find hard.
Here’s the reality:
People love exercises when they feel like they fully grasp how to perform them correctly.
People love exercises when they feel like they’re doing them right — or at least understand what they need to work on.
People HATE exercises when they experience the opposite.
We HATE exercises when they “don’t feel right”, are confusing, or don’t feel like they’re working the right muscles.
With that in mind, I want to teach you how to properly perform the side plank today.
This is such a staple exercise in any core training program.
Whether you want to tone your love handles or build a strong, functional, resilient core… or both — I’ve got you covered in today’s exercise.
Check it out.
