Description:
Make the plank an active hold and brace of the core muscles, not just a 'balance' position. If done correctly, holding for 30secs should be tough.
Exercise Notes:Hold for 30secs, then rest for 15secs before moving onto the next exercise
Minutes on exercise:1:00
Description:
Focus on a soft and controlled landing position, before driving up into your next rep - concentrate on form and rhythm with each jump rather than just completing as many reps as you possibly can
Exercise Notes:Work for 30secs, then rest for 15secs before moving onto the next exercise
Minutes on exercise:1:00
Description:
Keep the core braced and the body strong. Work at a tempo that you can sustain for the full 30secs, so as not to burn yourself out too quickly. 20 reps is a good target.
